Bobbers

[Chris Roberts]

Quick question:  Do you guys have a go to float?  Or do you keep an arsenal of them in your main box?

[Dwayne Denison]

John, I cannot find it, but was there not a big write up about weighting floats a while back. If I remember had lots of good info.

[John Sheehan]

Did you check my Johnny Wilson links to see if it's there Dwayne ?Go to his page if not.

[Dwayne Denison]

Yes John I checked, this was if I remember a 2 page write up. It was about how much weight, it took to balance different floats and bobbers. I don't think Johnny wrote it. I will keep looking for it.

[Dwayne Denison]

[Chris Roberts]

That article will be of more help to me than you can imagine!

 

Thanks for posting it

[Chris Roberts]

I really like some of these links, but could someone elaborate on what "balancing your float" means exactly?

[Tony Livingston]

In my opinion, you should fish a fixed float whenever possible. However, there are conditions that require a greater depth than a fixed float can provide, especially when coupled with a long casting distance.

Ok, here's my floats:
