AnglingBuzz Show 7: Bobber Fishing Setups

Bobber fishing is one of the best ways to catch a ton of different fish species. From walleye to panfish bobber set-ups are effective all year round. In this episode of AnglingBuzz we are going to take a look at a number of different bobber fishing setups. To begin the show we will join Jeremy Smith who's been having a lot of success bobber fishing walleye on Minnesota's Leech Lake. Then we will join Joel Nelson as he highlights the difference and benefits of using slip or fixed floats. To follow that up we’ll show off our weekly Blackfish giveaway and take a look at some must have fishing gear in our Cool Products segment. To wrap up the show we will join Jake Wallace as he shares his favorite slip bobber rod and reel setup.

11:31 "these are tungsten so they are 30% less dense than lead". Better have someone check that script for accuracy 😉 Of course, I know what was intended, but fact is tungsten is a little over 40% MORE dense than lead so physical size being equal can make them easier casting. Not sure where your "30%" came from...

Other than that always love this content, thanks!

Ive got some pencil thin bobbers that they use over in Europe for match fishing

Thank goodness we can still use big floats here. Never thought about using tungsten and large bobbers though. I mostly use bobbers for catfishing now

What's a good slip bobber not to use so it doesn't get caught in the reel all the time when you cast?.. mine gets caught a lot of times even if I trim the tags.. any suggestions?

Tungsten is way too expensive at this point. Hate to get bit off and lose a $4 jig.

It’s not true fishing if you have radar
