    Default bobbers and stops


    crappie.com family. I watched a video on the new bobbers and stops from clearly outdoors Tried them this week IMO they are great watch video and see what you think clearlyoutdoors.com see what you think. the stops are hard to do the first time but if you order the bobbers and stops they will or did send a refill with purchase.

    Love the bobbers they have and the different sizes work well for different conditions. First time I used the bobbers stops they worked great and went on just fine. Next time I must have used a dozen before I got one on correct. So, I will use that some point when I have a line already with a hook I need to put one on and have time to try a bunch, but it will not be something I order again on the stops only. I will get more bobbers and continue to use the Eagle Claw rubber stops (I call them rubber bobber buger stops not recalling the real name).

    I've ordered some stop and bobber and like them. Like you said it take a little skill to get the stop on at first but with use it becomes easier. I plan on ordering more when I get low.

    REPORT: Got mine The float is excellent. Its well thought out and well made. You could probably put it on with one hand If you need to.It cast perfectly, I don't think it could be better. The jig eye doesn't stick "Know what I mean?" I got the small for 1/32-1/8oz jigs.Could have gone smaller for 1/32oz but there was a little line drag with4# Mr. Crappie line. It worked.
    The bobber stops were meticulous. First I noticed they broke off the spool very easily. They can still be used with practice.
    You'll need readers to put one on the line. The bobber stops cast nicely with no hang in or out. I quickly noticed the stops don't stay put on 4# line. It needs adjustment after the second cast. A single overhand knot fixes that. You'll need a new one to move it up. Ive only tried 4#. Might work with 6#. Or with shinny braid it may slide past a knot.
