Use for fishing small minnows, wax worm, leech, spike, particle baits or jigs. When you require fine bite detection, this bobber delivers. Great for shallow water, cold front and cold water live bait fishing, these bobbers can be shotted low to the tip for grub baits. You can also line up the stripes in the yellow section to fish swimming live bait such as leech or small minnows. This deluxe approach to painting the pencil float offers anglers choices.

Sensitive Fishing - Pencil Bobber Tips
When fishing our pencil bobber, be sure to use a quality split shot. We recommend Anchor or Super Duex brands to properly sink the float. For optimum performance with your baited hook no more than 1/2 inch of the float should be above the water. Use slightly less shot and more float tip above the water for swimming baits so they don't take the bobber under.
With the new Slip-N-Lock fish this pencil bobber slip-bobber style or lock it in place on your line. Switch from slip float to fixed bobber by moving the slider at the base of your bobber. This feature allows you to switch float sizes. If you need more casting distance or the if wind kicks up, easily switch to a bigger float. You should also have a 7" Pencil Bobber in your tackle box in case the wind picks up. With the bigger float you can cast a little further.
