Soda Sraw Bobber - DIY Fishing Float

[ilifetouch]

Nice Vid an additional tip! If you cut two slices and slid them up the shaft before heating the ends . Your fishing line would sit snug against the bobber in two spots making the bobber more sensitive. Str8ts rules

Love it!!!

[PurpleHazeGoofyGrape]

nice thanks for sharing.... if i ever forget my "Big Butt Bobber" (our video) must use your technique!!! Peace n happy fishing!

i dont get how to make the part that slides onto the straw

[Survivaltek]

Clip the tip of the straw at a slight angle, and then cut a 1/16th inch strip, which by virtue of the elongated shape, is larger than the straw’s diameter, and will slide onto the straw to use for fastening the fishing line. Read more details at survivaltekDOTcom/?p=1851

Rats!! Almost...I was looking for a instructions on making a soda straw out of a bobber:-)

[micmoable]

here's a funny idea--th lighter can become a bobber too--it floats---ha ha

[micmoable]

fun idea---ha ha

[echo1er]

this was awesome. How to make and how it works.

[chpmunkcus]

can i get a video for that diy fishing rod

[hoops6706]

what if you forget the lighter?

[Survivaltek]

If you forget your lighter, just use something else that's hot enough to melt the plastic edges together... a match, car cigarette lighter, hot tail pipe, magnifying lens... otherwise, use a stick instead as a float.

i never thought that before great video i am sure now to get soda straws to make a float out of neat idea

[kahunaru]

[wwwfiskeforumse]

excellent!!! Just tried to make one, easy as pie...

[Nako521]

Brilliant!

[horvathluke]

i took my straw and cut it into smaller peices and made more bobbers, it also makes it a lot more sensitive. Great video and idea though.

Thanks,

Luke

[pivotking111]

2:01 nice fish man!

[ChrisH11515]

wow,this is actually really smart.Gonna go make some.lol

[Survivaltek]

Hmmm... in what respect? Did it not float? Did you have difficulty attaching the line? Did you not see the initial fish strike? More details please.

[beefptty]

@Survivaltek well it wasnt any of that it just didnt float lol nothing serious tried a bunch of different straws ach it just didnt work

[beefptty]

this did not work for me



[jacketfan8]

[MrThewoodlover]

[tom20342]

[wilson1942]

Thanks for this video. I saved a lot of money, without losing quality. Great vid and easy to do. This really helped. :)

[93sonyjoe1]

greatest thing ever ahahhahahah lol

[danocarvalho]

Excellent video. Clear, simple but personalized (first instruction video that I've watched with steel drum background music). I love how you put it into practice at the end. Thanks for posting. I'm going to see if they work for ice fishing tomorrow. They seem very sensitive and because of the narrow width of the straw perhaps less likely to get hung up on ice chunks like tradition floats. Thanks again.

I've been looking for simple, light duty, highly sensitive bobbers for crappie fishing, I looked at "straw bobbers". They fetch about $1.00 a piece. The porcupine "Quill Bobber" fetches even more. Then I remembered this video. I watched and learned. I got out my tools and put your knowledge into practice. It works like a charm. It's still January. I haven't been able to try it on crappie yet but I'm sure in March I will keep more money in my pocket and put more crappie in the pan. Thanks Friend

[Survivaltek]

@runincool01 - Thank you for your comment on the soda straw bobber... I'm pleased that you tried it out. I'd love to see the results of your fishing experience. :-)

[SnoPro137]

@runincool01 idk as of what structure you fish around but for the crappie here, i just throw my bait out fishing in around 10-15 feet of water and just let my lure sink a little then use a slow retrieve. usually have a crappie every cast

[MrSpottedzebra]

ive got that knife the leatherman wave is amazing

[Aqualiteking]

You can do almost anything with a Leatherman.

[alanmckay]

Well done!
