I just realized that making your own bobber stops is way cheaper and fun to do when you can't go fishing do y'all agree here's a picture of 1 I tied already using a coffee straw and some embroidery floss [Linked Image]

Bobber stops are cheap, but nice job.

agree,...but the ties work best if youre going deep, bobber stops dont go thru the eyelets very well....

you dont need to put them on keepers.. just cut several pieces of string and put them in your tackle box.. all you do is hold the bobber stop parallel with the line, and tie an overhand knot over the fishing line,, only thing different is instead of passing the line thru one time, pass it 4 or 5 times and pull it tight.,


COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !
