I love the good ol slip bobber. I don’t use often but like it. Sometimes like to chill and throw a greasy NC on it. Great video

Awesome job explaining the process.

In fly fishing we do use a similar technique to suspend a nymph above the bottom in flowing rivers. Except it’s called a “strike indicator”. However there are differences.

Excellent Presentation- Quicks Question - If we are using non Fluorescent Hook, how far do we have to tie the hook from the bead ? Do you have Vedio for that. thanks

[scottpins]

Are you close to Michigan aka Lake Superior you would love the fisheries here

[alessandrayang]

What is the size line did you use for anyway?

[freddiegonz]

You didn’t show how it goes thru the top guide. I have to trim my bobber stops shorter as longer ones tend to get stuck at the top guide.

No need to split line types just use regular mono or whatever your base line is on ur reel . No need for a second line type . Why these guys recommend a second line is beyond me soo stupid smh . Iv had tons of success with just slip bobber fishing using whatever line is on my reel without a second line as a leader. Theres no neeed for this !!
