Betts Foam Float Cigar 2.50" 100ct Green
The Betts Foam Float Cigar 2.50" 100ct Green is a bulk pack of hard foam floats designed for anglers who need reliable, durable bobbers for freshwater and light saltwater fishing. Unlike plastic floats that chip, crack, or eventually lose buoyancy, these foam cigar floats are engineered to stay afloat season after season. The bright fluorescent green finish cuts through glare and murky water, making it easy to track your float and detect bites from a distance—whether you're fishing for panfish in a pond, suspending live bait under a dock, or working structure in weedy shallows.
With 100 floats per pack, you've got plenty on hand for a full season, multiple rigs, or to share with fishing buddies. The 2.50-inch size strikes a balance between visibility and light enough handling that won't spook wary fish. Because foam resists the wear that sinks cheaper plastic alternatives, you'll replace these far less often, making the bulk count an economical choice for serious anglers who fish regularly.
These floats are straightforward, no-frills tools—nothing gimmicky, just proven foam construction that does the job. If you're tired of bobbers that fog up, crack in cold weather, or sink after a season of use, switching to foam floats is a small upgrade that pays dividends in reliability and visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between foam floats and plastic bobbers?
Foam floats are made from hard foam that resists cracking, fogging, and water absorption. Plastic bobbers can become brittle in cold weather, cloud up over time, and eventually lose buoyancy. Foam holds up better to repeated use and lasts longer in the field.
Is the 2.50-inch size right for my fishing?
The 2.50-inch cigar float works well for panfish, live bait presentations, and fishing around weeds and structure. It's visible enough to track easily without being so large that it spooks fish. If you fish larger baits or deeper water regularly, you may want to try different sizes, but this is a solid all-around choice for most freshwater applications.
Why buy a 100-count pack?
A bulk pack means you won't run out mid-season, you can outfit multiple rods at once, and you'll have replacements on hand. At this quantity, foam floats are economical compared to buying smaller packs repeatedly throughout the year.
Will these floats work in saltwater?
These are designed to handle light saltwater use, though they're primarily a freshwater float. For heavy saltwater or prolonged exposure to salt, specialized saltwater floats may be a better choice.
