How do i use Garbolino blob floats for fishing shallow water. Does anyone know how to fix to line? Help!?
On this side of the Atlantic, we call devices like that a strike indicator. There ought to be instructions on the packet from the maker, but if not insert a loop of line through the wire loop. Slide the float over the wire and pull the line loop through the float. A chunk of rubber band can be inserted then to lock the float onto the running line.
To use: Point your rod tip at the float. Keep the rod tip close to the surface or even slightly below. Take up as much slack as you can. Watch the indicator for movement. Set the hook by making a strip of the line. Play the fish normally. It is possible to catch fish by holding the rod tip higher and setting the hook by lifting the rod yet higher, but percentages are against that because of lack of feel.
