Bubble Float Fishing Question
Hi,Thought I'd try those water filled Bubble Floats. The ones I purchased have a skinny tapered end, and a
fatter diameter end. Which end goes towards the hook ? Why ?
Does it matter ? Thanks,

| the skinny end - for better casting and so it doesn't splash like a popper when you retrieve. I'm assuming you're using it for very light top water lures. Illini Bassman |

| Reverse that - I'm thinking backwards - the fat end should be on the hook side. As you pull line in or pop it, then the narrow end won't make the splash. |

| When fishing for speckled trout in Galveston, TX, they sell floats that are
concave on the top. Every once in a while, you point your rod at the float
and yank 1/2 circle. The agitation makes a big splash, and gloop sound, and
will attract the fish. Very common tactic there. Not sure how it would
work in fresh water. Look at the tops of floats at the bait store. There
is some reason for them to be shaped the way they are, and some are a lot
more concave than others. Steve |
