thoughts on frabill titanium rod tip spring bobber

Was wondering who has tried and their impressions relating to feel on light hitting pan fish.

I got one. So far I love it. It is one of the more sensitive ones I’ve used. What’s even better is that it stows back on to the rod so it doesn’t get bent, and the big eye reduces problems with ice. Overall a spendy but solid spring bobber.

Looks good.How does it attach to the rod tip.Some tips are very small and some pretty large.Does the line run thru the spring or under it? A pic would be cool if you could. Thanks.

Assuming we are talking the same thing here (it’s like a 12$ gig if that helps) then I don’t have a pic. I got mine at Gander, tihey may show them online. It is just the rubber cylinder with the notch in it that slips over the rod tip, like many spring bobbers use. I find it works best with smaller tips, but will work all around. I simply set on the rod just below the tip guide epoxy and it grabs real good. From this the spring bobber itself comes out and sticks out in front of the tip guide. Your line runs through a loop at the end.

Hmmmm been thinking about these… good to see some info on them.

Thanks I will be checking them out at Gander.

I picked one up at the central wi. ice show at Reeds booth for $8.50. I havn’t gotten a chance to use it yet hopfully this weekend.
