Best bobber stops?

Dog bones second to none.

Generally 6-10 ft when using them...

Why not try using a longer rod with large guides? Maybe a 7 1/2 or 8 footer. It would keep the knot out of your reel spool.

I fish around and under a lot of bridges which make a longer pole harder to use.

Can you elaborate on these "dog bones"?

I use this type 95% of the time. Several brands out there.

I have always used the thread that comes on the small tube you slip over the line, pull the knot tight and clip the ends. Problem is, the know always rubs my guides affecting my cast and sometimes hangs up coming out of the reel.

What do you use?

I haven't found 1 that doesn't do that once in a while.

Try these with the string stops or the rubber stops. Both work well with this bober......
You will never buy another brand of bober and they will LAST a LONG time...Still have mine from 6 years back. The glass and brass ends do not harm your line one bit! The best bober I have ever found bar none. These bobers actually make my stops last longer as well I have found becasue of the glass and brass ends.

Same here. Use the smallest ones for 4-6 lb test line.

I prefer Bass Pro sinker stops , tougher , more in a package and cheaper than bobber stops .
