I'm more apt to be using these:



I like the styrofoam ones ... 'cause they're "FREE"
Actually, I find them floating, on the bank, or hanging in tree branches at several of the lakes I fish. They usually still have the plastic "straw" thingy in them, which I use on the cigar shaped one, pictured above. But, on the pear shaped ones, I remove the "straw" and just use a bigger bead. A #4 Water Gremlin sinker will hold them down to where the water level is in the "red" area .... and it don't take much pull to take them under.
I also like the Thill (balsa) floats .... like these:



but, don't much care for the price :D

I even got me a "rattlin bobber" to try out this Spring :rolleyes: :



We'll have to wait and see if it really does make a difference ....... LOL!!!
