Where I'm from is near salt water and therefor it is easy to get large bobbers, but in Arkansaw, the largest float seems to be about 2". I can't even find the type I'd like online.!
The kind I'm talking about are most often refferred to as popping corks...a tapered cylinder
pointed at the bottom end and gradually becomming larger in diameter till it get to the top,
split down one side/with a wooden or plastic "stick" that fits the hole through the middle,
and is usually made of stirefoam and is mostly white with a green or orange top...in salt water fishing stores, they usually have them in at least 3-6 sizes...from about 2.5 to 6 or 7 inches long...can't find them locally or on line...
Since I moved to Arkansaw, I can't find them at all...  help !!!

Didnt see any on the Cabela's site what he wants- only ones at Bass Pro are the regular red/white - weighed with a slot

Here is the link:::  http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_7978_151005000_151000000_151005000_151-5-0

I like using the Lindy floats 8" models. The basspro shop carries them. They will hold up a good size bait with a 1 1/2 oz weight.

I have a couple like that.  I forget how big they are, but they're weighted, no slot, with a hole punched through the length with a plastic tube for the line.  I got them at Academy Sports and Outdoors.

I've been meaning to buy one of those "Billy Floats", from Wally World.  Those floats are bigger than the popper floats I have, and more aerodymically designed.
