STAN'S SLIP BOBBERS

Stan's Slip Bobbers, first introduced in 1958, have been a favorite with fishermen for over 60 years. Stan's Slip Bobbers have a unique design feature that will actually help you catch fish.

"STAN'S DIFFERENCE"

Stan's Slip Bobbers now have a metal top and metal bottom. These features make the bobbers unique from all other bobbers on the market.

The permanent top with a .038" hole:
  • Eliminates the need to add a plastic bead to your line
  • Allows the line to pass through the stem freely
  • Is small enough to stop your bobber knot
  • Allows your bait to quickly fall to desired fishing depth
  • Will never wear out


The removable metal bottom:
  • Eliminates line from wearing groves into stem
  • Is removable for easy line insertion
  • Allows bobber to be used with or without metal bottom
  • Keeps weights from damaging stem bottom when casting

HOW IT WORKS

The Scenario

It’s a perfect day for fishing and you’ve heard that they’re biting. You position your boat over the fish. They’re 12 ft deep. You set your stopper knot at 12 feet and cast your line out. You sit and wait for that first bite…and nothing happens. You cast out again…and still nothing. After moving from spot to spot for a few hours, you leave because the fish weren’t biting that day.

The Problem

The problem wasn’t that the fish weren’t biting, the problem was your slip bobber. With ordinary slip bobbers a plastic bead is required to stop the line at the desired depth. The plastic bead is either part of the bobber in the stem or put on the line between the stopper knot and the bobber. Over time (a few hours of fishing) mono filament line or Fireline will cut a groove in the plastic bead. This causes increased friction, slowing the rate at which the bait sinks. The real problem occurs when the groove gets deep enough to stop the line from sinking at all. So there you are thinking your bait is down 12 feet where the fish are, but your bobber has only allowed the bait to sink 3 feet. 

The Solution

Stan’s Slip Bobbers! Instead of using a plastic bead, Stan’s Slip Bobbers are made with a nickel steel grommet that won’t cut. Therefore, the line travels through the bobber without any friction and will get to the desired fishing depth faster. Better yet Stan’s Slip Bobbers will never "hang up" short of the desired fishing depth. It doesn’t matter if you’re using mono filament line or Fireline -- Stan’s Slip Bobbers work the same every time. Stan’s Slip Bobbers are very durable, and come in 9 different styles and three highly visible colors. You may lose a few bobbers, but you will never wear out a Stan’s Slip Bobber.

NOT YOUR ORDINARY FLOAT

The float body of all models are made of Expanded Polystyrene and painted with waterproof hi-visibility day fluorescent paints. The tubes are semi-rigid white PVC plastic with a metal grommet on top with a small hole that makes possible the use of a small stopper knot. Stan's also feature a removable metal bottom piece that eliminates the wear of the stem bottom. NO PLASTIC BEAD NEEDED. Stan’s Slip Bobbers come in 9 different styles for all types of fishing, from pan fish to walleye, salmon and muskies. There are three highly visible colors to choose from.


53 Slip bobber from stan's bobbers

They were just perfect. 


I began using the large Stan Bobbers (no 53) last fall for fishing big pike and walleyes with sucker minnows. They were just perfect. Big enough to keep those suckers minnows from hauling them under. And large enough to see in low light evenings. And they cast so well. Unfortunately those big pike ripped a few off my line and they were lost. Can’ wait for the lake to cool and those big fish will start cruising the shorelines. I'll be ready with Stan's bobbers and my net.

All my fishing buddies now use Stan's Slip Bobbers.


Simply the best & easiest way to control the depth of your leader with this innovated metal grommet. While everyone around me is struggling to find a solution to control their fishing depth, too high, too low or getting caught in weeds, with Stan's Slip Bobbers just adjust the slip knot and the bait dangles and stays just above the weeds. People are amazed how fast and how many fish I catch and it's not luck, it's the bobber, period. All my fishing buddies now use Stan's Slip Bobbers.
