[QUOTE="GSP22366, post: 248768, member: 5096"] Nothing special as to rod set up- more in the rigging. Slip bobber fished with my Dad in Devils Lake and needed to clean up the process or go broke. Dad couldn't see real well in his later years so a larger more vertical bobber was needed, and they were a bit more expensive and he could snag really quickly- there went another bobber floating across the lake. Finally rigged up some rods with good bobber- weights- swivels and tied a 12" sacrifice line and hook under the rig. Tied up a bunch of sacrifice line and hooks on a roll. Key was to be a lot lighter with the sacrifice line than the main line. He still broke off a bunch, but it just took a few seconds to hook on another line and hook. Got to take him on a good trip when he was 92 and he took some money away from us with the best fish bet. Great memory and glad to be able to give back for all the patience he had with me as a kid.
