I agree, they are great and you can take them off with no problem.

For long casting, I really like "Adjust a Float" fill with water and adjust to any depth very easy.

If you ever try another bobber for the last time you have to get yourself a few ESB's or Everlasting Slip Bobber....The Everlasting Slip Bobber - the world's finest slip bobber! The BEST bobber I have ever owned and have never had one fade or break or have any issues what so ever, and I fish with them ALL the time! I will continue to buy (if I ever need to again) from them only. The bobbrs are perfect and well made with metal in the stem that lasts! Trust me. Try tem out. You'll never get another bobber again. I can guarantee.

I must collect floats. I have a box full. Mostly Thill with some Mr Crappie weighted floats thrown in. I like the wing it floats also. I bought two of the Rocket Bobbers in the panfish size but haven't used them.

These are my favorite floats. Each has a purpose. Walmart and Thill.

The floats from crappie magnet work great with a 1/32 hair jig, but my all time favorite is a plain old cork drilled and lined with a small straw that my Dad used to make.

Those are the "free" ones I find hanging in trees, washed up on the bank, or hung on underwater wood.

Who makes them ?? Most I find are the Comal pear shaped & cigar shaped styrofoam, or Thill styrofoam pear/oval shaped ones. I don't much care for the spring end style floats, so I leave them for someone else.

Floats in trees=good place to fish. Sometimes I just hang a few up in a bad place to fish to throw people off. I usually leave the spring end ones hanging cause most people don't want those


Someone needs to put Fatman on the float pro staff. Awesome collection dude.

I use the trout, strike indicators from Chuck and Debs. Great prices great floats.

I use that cigar from wal mart. I put a couple #4 weights on the #6 line and I can reach out to them brush piles out from the docks in our neighborhood. Sometimes I just don't wanna hassle with a boat. It is fun to watch a bobber go down from a distance.
