bobber fishing

Question; How many of you, while bobber fishing on tide water and without fail, kept a tight line between you and your bobber for 5 or 6 hours and the one time you got lazy and had a half a mile of slack, had your bobber bury? Personally this has never happened to me! LOL

I usually have to let out at least a half mile of belly before I get a take down, maybe if I start fishing like that all the time instead of just when I get lazy, I'll hook more fish!! How has fishing been?

Unbeleivable, only one guy admits to a little to much slack in his(or her) line!

Been there ....done that....way too many times than I will admit to......

Thats why I now fish double 6/0's tied at a 150 degree angle to each other.....

When I am sleeping, I usually still get a hook point stuck in the fish's mouth

Accounts for about 7% - 13% of my fish each year.
