YOU'VE SEEN IT BEFORE, I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU AGAIN; THE SLIP-BOBBER RIG. HI I'M MICKEY ANDERSON FROM FISH TECH SHOWING YOU MY FAVORITE ICE FISHING TIP AND IMPROVEMENTS MADE IN IT. FIRST IMPROVENT MADE IS THE "HOW TO TIE THE KNOT ON", BUT THEY'VE MADE AN IMPROVEMENT IN THAT AND IT'S PRE-TIED FOR YOU. THERE IS A LITTLE CYLENDAR... THIS CYLENDAR HAS THE KNOT ALREADY TIED ON IT. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PASS THIS RIGHT THROUGH YOUR LINE TO BEGIN WITH. TIP YOUR LINE UP ON IT, PULL THE KNOT OFF AND DRAW THAT DOWN. SO IT'S ALREADY TIED FOR YOU AND THEN JUST CLIP OFF THESE ENDS. THE WAY THIS WORKS, IS YOU SET YOUR BOOBER STOP AT THE DEPTH YOU WANT TO FISH. TODAY WE FOUND OUT THAT THE FISH ARE 15 FEET OFF THE BOTTOM. SO I'M GOING TO DROP MY JIG TO THE BOTTOM, RAISE IT UP 15 FEET AND SET MY STOPPER. THAT WAY IT'S SET AT THE SAME DEPTH EVERY SINGLE TIME... I CAN DROP IT DOWN AND BE 15 FEET UP EVERY TIME. THE OTHER ADVANTAGE TO THIS LITTLE CLIP IS IT MAKES CHANGING BOBBERS REALLY EASY. IF YOUR BOOBER ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO FLOAT THE SIZE LURE THAT YOU'RE USING, JUST POP IT OFF AND SNAP ON THE RIGHT SIZE, IT'S THAT QUICK TO CHANGE. SO FOR THESE TIPS AND A WHOLE LOT MORE COME ON DOWN TO FISH TECH AND WE'LL HELP YOU OUT. AND NOW FOR TONIGHT'S FISHING LINE.
