This keeps the blade close to the jighead on the fall and doesn't damage the line like a split shot. The Bobby Garland slab tickers come in 0 and 1 sizes. The sinker stops are real small and we use them on slip corks as well. Easy to adjust and they hold tight. They do sell the same thing at Bass Pro called bobber stops and you get half as many for double the price because they come with plastic beads. The sinker stops are the exact same thing. Heading to the water.

Appreciate you posting this illustration, plan on using when hit the dingy Kansas waters. Be interesting to experience the difference.

BIG fish day at Kaw. Besides dinks, only caught 3 keepers till I found em. Once found, 29 in two hours. Top 7 on left side of last pic 2.1, 2.0, 2.0, 1.15, 1.15, 1.15, 1.15 Lbs. and ounces. As you can see most of the others were nearly the same size. The average size was astonishing. Talk about a nice Christmas present! Fishing structure on ledges 15 to 21 feet.
