Please help , my bobber is sinking when the wind comes up

I use a med size unweighted thrill slip float, but it never sinks just because it's windy. It floats along with the current in the wind, that's all. Can you elaborate?

The "windbeater" (a/k/a "driftbeater") is a specific type of waggler that will help, also. They're nice to have but not essential, IMO.

I use the 1" round red white and blues.

I'm gonna be a little self serving on this one:

for BG anytype of float that you don't overweight will do. like the cheap red/white small ones with a small spider or worm on a small hook for them

I've watched you make those..... Amazing how much detail goes into them.....

What's the reason for the cork? Can you not tightline the spot?

Comal makes a pink slip float. It's shaped like an egg.
