Lil Dibber is not all that big, but it packs a massive fish-catching punch. We brought the Lil Dibber back for a reason. Remember when your favorite Shy Bite float used to have the metal controller eye - WE BROUGHT IT BACK. Fans of the old Shy Bite Float will love having the eye back on this Shy Eyed Float because it gives you control of that float right at the water line - where it matters.

The Lil Dibber- 1.6 gr. Shy Eye Float

The Lil Dibber - 1.6 gr gram Shy Eye float is great for pitching into shallow water with red worm, small minnow, cricket or nightcrawler. In fact, this float is great for ambushing big fish in shallow water- giving you a little stealth with very little splash to startle- the Lil Dibber 1.6 gr. makes the perfect pitching float for creek and stream fishing. Just enough weight to get you to the hole or far bank and suspend a bait through the current. With the help of the controller eye (Shy Eyes) - you will feel confident in holding the bait back and setting the table for that hungry fish.

We use the Lil Dibber to catch really big fish in shallow water. Some call this "Corking" for shallow water fish of all species. At times of the year, fish are 2 foot deep or even more shallow! The Lil Dibber is perfect for pitching short distances from shore or boat into shallow water. The small size will not spook the fish in shallow water. In fact, this small bobber will leave one of the ideal splashes that get fish excited and looking. Fish it with any bait including small minnows or worms for anything that swims.

This is a great tangle-free float because of its design. Easily offer this up to someone who just makes short casts to fish. Simple to fish - add enough shot to get waterline matched to the white stripe (when the bait is on). You will find this a stable float and one that will show you right when the fish takes the bait. Better with worms, grubs, crickets and non-swimmers - the float is good with small crappie minnows in the shallows!! Doesn't spook the fish because of its size. Flip one in, watch and hold on! The Lil Dibber 1.6 gram will be sure to make new fishing highlights for you. Also comes with two secure rubber bands on top of float. Fish these below the eye for added strength and back-up. For bigger baits and for longer flipping distances, use the bigger Big Dibber 3 gram (in green).

When I competed, this was like the first ever float that I fished when I learned to float fish from Mick Thill on the shores of a Chicago area pond during a cold day in March. I caught 6 fish between 4-7 lb. in a row with only 2.5 hours of fishing towards dark. You will love fishing this float.

Windy Float Fishing Tip

To make your floats stick in windy conditions, simply cast past your target area, then lower your rod tip under water and crank in toward you. You can see the line sinking under water [ very important ]. With your line under water, you can properly present a bait in the strike zone much longer and in a more appealing fashion to fish. This is the difference between limiting out and getting skunked in many cases.
