Fishing a floating rubber spider with spinning equipment
If you love to fish top water for bluegills this is a great way to enjoy yourself. I was talking to Bryon Mahoney about it and I think this may clarify the system for any new people who may not of herd about it before. It doe's work I use it quit often and enjoy some top water now and then myself. Enjoy and GOOD FISHIN.....

I JUST USE a regular weighted bobber for casting spiders when the wind is too heavy for the fly rod.....

I'm thinking a dropper fly, like a Briminator, is the way to go.
But since this about floating spiders, well.... LOL

This is the float That I use. I like the clear because the fish don't strike the float as much. Thanks for the info and they will all work.

Basspro Shops have one exactly like mine-very popular out west.

These were very popular out west when I lived in Idaho and Colorado. Most of them needed water added to get them casting far enough. They has a clear tapered pin through the center where the line went and water was added. Might have one around yet-if so will get a picture.
In the meantime mine were very similar to these Eagle Claw Water Weighted Spin Floats at the following link, http://www.fishusa.com/product/Eagle-Claw-Water-Weighted-Spin-Float...
Out west they were used mostly for trout in high mountain lakes with backpack spinning gear.

Hey Dick, I think this is what is refered to as "float-n-fly" in a lot of articles in the fishing mags. You are right, definitely a fish getter.
