Betts Slip Float Oval Unweighted 4"Red/White/Chart

The Betts Slip Float Oval Unweighted 4" is a classic foam slip bobber designed for anglers who need adjustable depth control without added weight. This red, white, and chartreuse slip float lets you fish at any depth by sliding freely along your line until it reaches a bobber stop—ideal for targeting suspended fish or experimenting with presentations on the fly. The unweighted design means you control the load entirely with your rig, giving you flexibility to match light or moderate sinker setups across freshwater species and conditions.

Hand-painted in a high-visibility multi-stripe pattern, this 4" float balances portability with enough buoyancy for most panfish and bass scenarios. The oval shape provides stability in moderate current while remaining sensitive to bites. Whether you're fishing live bait, minnows, or soft plastics beneath the surface, this slip float works as a traditional bobber or as part of a suspending rig where depth adjustment matters more than a fixed float.

Each Betts Slip Float comes complete with a bobber stop bead, so you can rig it straight out of the bag without hunting down extra hardware. The foam construction is durable and forgiving—a workhorse option for both casual pond fishing and serious panfish tournaments where visibility and depth control drive success.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included with this slip float?

The Betts Slip Float comes packed with a bobber stop bead, so you have everything you need to rig it and start fishing right away.

How does a slip float work?

A slip float slides freely along your fishing line until it reaches a bobber stop (the bead included with this float). This lets you fish at any depth: set your bobber stop higher to fish deeper, or lower it to fish shallower. The float itself stays at the water's surface, providing visibility and strike indication.

Is this float weighted?

No, the Betts Slip Float Oval is unweighted. You choose the sinker size and style to match your target species and fishing conditions, giving you complete control over presentation and sensitivity.

What fish and conditions is this float good for?

The 4" oval slip float works well for panfish, bass, and general freshwater species. The high-visibility color pattern performs in a range of light conditions, and the unweighted design suits live bait, minnow, and soft plastic presentations in ponds, lakes, and light current.
