Floating beads

[gremlins3]

Has anybody used floating beads before to lift the bait of the bottom?
is it worth investing in some ?.

Floating beads will not "lift your baits"off the bottom, but they will help encourage movement especially on small tides brilliant for flounder/river fishing

Beads

All the beads do is lure flounders and small coalies to your bait as i use the luminous ones ok---

A small pre drilled cork ball 6-8mm does help lift your bait,but I've seen people catch crabs fishing 6ft off the bottom so I'm not too sure this is the answer your looking for ,Dave
