Spent last night chasing some Mille Lacs walleyes and had the pleasure of using the new “Wave Buster Bobbers”. I was throroughly impressed with the results. We spent the last hour of the evening throwing out slip bobbers. My partner for the evening had on a standard slip bobber and a leech and I was trying out the new wave buster bobber. Both set ups had the same offerings on each end. At about 9:00pm, the wind had slowed to a 15 mph out of the South. The Wave Buster looked as though it was motionless other than the horizontal movement from the wind. It literally busted through the waves verses riding up and over the waves like the standard slip bobber rig had done. The Wave Buster out produced the other float about 6 to 1 for the rest of the evening.
A couple real nice features I liked about the bobber was that I had no tangles after the cast, the bobber went to its set depth immediately on each cast. Also, the long slender shape was an absolute dream to cast into the wind. It acts like a dart being thrown into the air, and because of its long skinny profile, very little resistance is needed for the fish to pull it down. For my first legitimate try with these new floats, I can honestly say that these will be seeing more water time from me in the future. For all you bobber fisherman out there, these are definately another tool to have in your arsenal of “cork artiliary”.
