Tip
Tip: Use a sliding bobber stop to set and adjust depth easily
How to do it: Thread a small rubber bobber stop onto the leader; it holds by friction, slides up and down to change depth, and stops the indicator at the set depth
Mistake it fixes: Using a fixed-depth indicator rig
Why it works: A sliding stop lets you change depth quickly without re-tying. That matters when fish shift depth through the day.
When it matters most: Stillwater, indicator fishing
