Betts Foam Float Cigar 1.50" 100ct Red/White

Betts foam float cigars are workhorse bobbers built to handle the rigors of live-bait fishing without the frustration of cracked or waterlogged failures. These 1.50-inch foam floats come in a bulk 100-count pack in red and white, giving you the visibility and redundancy serious anglers expect. Hard foam construction means they'll outlast plastic alternatives—no sudden sinking, no breakage from being bumped in the tackle box or cast repeatedly into cover.

The cigar profile sits upright in the water and offers solid sensitivity for detecting bites across a range of depths and conditions. Fluorescent red and white finish cuts through glare and murky water, making it easy to track your bait and watch for the telltale twitch that signals a strike. Whether you're fishing rivers, ponds, or lakes, having a reliable float that floats high and stays intact trip after trip means less downtime and more focus on fishing.

At 100 per pack, you've got backups for lost floats, spares for different rigs, and enough inventory to share with a fishing buddy without worrying about running out mid-season. Betts has been producing proven fishing tackle for decades, and these foam floats represent the kind of straightforward, dependable gear that gets the job done without unnecessary complexity or cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between foam and plastic floats?

Foam floats are durable and won't crack or absorb water like plastic can over time. They float reliably season after season, even with heavy use, and they're less prone to breaking if you snag cover or bump them around in your tackle bag.

Will 100 floats be enough for a season?

For most anglers, yes. Having 100 gives you spares when floats break or get lost, and enough to rig multiple setups or share with fishing partners. If you fish heavily or multiple waters, the bulk pack is a smart investment.

What kind of fishing is this float best for?

The cigar profile and 1.50-inch size work well for live-bait fishing in ponds, rivers, and lakes. The high-floating design is useful across a range of depths, making it a versatile choice for panfish, catfish, and other species that respond to live bait under a float.
