Editor's Notes

October 25, 2019:

There are several advantages to using a fishing bobber. First, a buoyant and brightly-colored bobber can help you determine whether or not you have a bite. They're also useful for keeping bait suspended at a particular depth, and for allowing currents to transfer the line across the water to areas that may be difficult to approach closely by boat. Bobbers — also referred to as floats — are a great, inexpensive way to up your fishing game. And if you want to further increase your odds of snagging a hefty fish, be sure to take a peek at the growing variety of fishing lures on the market today.

The QualyQualy Vertical has been removed after reviewing user complaints about the quality of the product's assembly. In its place, we've added the Rod-N-Bobb's Mr. Ice, a twelve-pack of freeze-resistant bobbers crafted specifically for ice fishing.
