Foam Walkers

[hip_hop_fisherman]

I just saw the add go across the top of the screen and was wondering how many people have used these? Are they better than using just a standard bottom bouncer or even the no snagg slip sinkers from lindy? advantages, disadvantages compared to the others? Just curious.

I've used em and wont use any other bottom bouncer now, I only see advantages with them, they always stand up, Ive never gotten one hung up, and you dont stir up as much muck with em when fishing in silty areas. I guess the only disadvantage with em is that they are hard to find (I dont like ordering stuff off of the net)

Ohh forgot to mention another huge advantage is that you can just clip em on or off the line!

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to have to pick some of them up to add to the arsenal!

I used them last year and liked them on lakes. I didn't like them on rivers in current situations, harder to keep on bottom with the current fighting the floating foam. But other then that the are a good product. Also like the fact that you can snap them on.

Good product, and you can switch the weight quickly which is also a plus. I have found them at Fleet Farm.. Good luck

I use the foam walkers for pretty much all of my spinner-riggin' for walleyes. I also use them to run floats and cranks on occassion as well. A very versatile tool. The float really perfroms well in keeping the weight away from dragging on the bottom. It really does bounce off rocks and I've experienced a lot less snags with the foam walkers then your standard systems.

Good Fishin,

When rigging I always use Foam Walkers. They're my mainstay for running rigs. My favorite set-up is a Foam Walker in-front of a Phelps Floater, it catches fish!
