Best Bobber Fishing Hook

We hit the mid lake reefs and worked all the way around the the lilipads. We moved west, then north and finally east. We slid the slip bobbers up and down. We used leaches, red worms, night crawlers, jigs, jigs tipped with crappie nibblers and jigs sprayed with attractant. Everything producted. We caught bluegill, pumpkinseed, crappie, largemouth bass and northern pike. After fishing hard for bass and musky on other lakes, a slow day of just catching panfish was great!

Carson Kvernen reported catching Panfish / Bluegill using the Bobbers technique and VMC Aberdeen Hook on Lake Thirteen.

Omnia Community Member reported catching Sturgeon using the Bobbers technique and VMC Tournament Circle Hook on American Falls Reservoir. Additional comments from this report: "Fished an Idaho regulated setup with an 8oz weight on a 12 rod with 100lbs braid to 150lbs mono leader(rocky bottom with lots of abrasion,but could definitely be a lighter setup as well). I used cut bait and worms right below the dam. You can also occasionally find a crawfish laying around that the sturgeon will eat. When the water is high, it can be hard to keep bait on the bottom. Sturgeon in the picture was 6 and a half feet. You can also catch smallmouth here"

Tyler Robinson reported catching Panfish / Bluegill using the Bobbers technique and VMC Octopus Hook - EOL on Daggett Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Crappies and gills are moving towards the back bays. However, your nicer fish seem to still be on the weed flats in 5-10 feet. Simple set up with bobber and red hook and crappie minnow hooked in the lip. Fan cast until you find a school and try to stay on top of them."
