MAKE YOUR OWN SLIP BOBBERS
Image:
Everyone knows how the slip bobber has
helped anglers catch more fish. Crappie, catfish, bluegill, walleye
and even salmon, and the slip-bobber can be deadly in deep water as
well as shallow. I was forced into this homemade slip-bobber while
fishing from a pier in Valdez Alaska for Silver salmon. I needed some
slip-bobbers and the local bait shop had sold out of the fancy
slip-bobber and I was forced to buy the old style round red and white
bobber. I wondered if I could make a slip-bobber out of the bobber
and found that after removing the guts it would work and work really
well. One problem with slip-bobbers is when the line just will not
slide through the slip bobber. This cheap homemade slip-bobber works
great. The plastic is slick and the line really slides through these
slip-bobbers and if you spray a little line lubricant on the
slip-bobber the line slides even better.
Whether you are into
smallmouth bass fishing or fishing for bluegill this bobber works.
Catfishing, crappie fishing or whatever fishing you do, that requires
a slip-bobber, this tip will help you not only save a little money
but you might just like these slip-bobbers best of all. I hope this
tip helps you out and remember to check back for more.
