    Over the years I have fooled around with several types of indicators…and I usually just fish with pinch on foam that seems to do the trick.

    They are easy to see, very sensitive to strikes, easy to adjust for different depths, and can float a bowling ball.

    I watched some guy from Utah on a video do that setup. If he had used a red ballon and painted a white stripe around it you could feel like you were 5 again and fishin with daddy. It looked like it would work good though and I bet you could suspend 1/2 ounce of lead under the ballon.

    I use the balloons a lot for everything. If I could get them smaller, they’d be all I’d use

    it shakes dry pretty much instantly on the backcast if you use the right stuff.
