    I have never used them, but I have fished with some people that do.  They do float well and are very easy to see.  But, at about a $1.50 each I think they are a little pricey.

    Was wondering if they slip down the line? Would be worth 1.50 if they don,t.

    Dont slip and dont sink, they land nice and soft too. I like the white one, looks like a foam bubble.

    I was thinking about cutting a leaf looking thing out of thin tan foam.  Maybe run the line through it twice with a needle.  Probably be easy to adjust too.

    I've been doing this for a few years now. Works great on low and clear days!
     
    Use the foam "plates" that meat comes packaged in from the supermarkets!

    How does the float keep from sliding on the line?

    changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes....nothing remains quite the same

    You double the line, place the doubled line through the hole in the indicator and then pass the indicator through the loop...done.


    Thanks!
