Betts Slip Stick floats give you a straightforward, versatile tool for panfish, bluegill, and light-action freshwater fishing. This 50-count pack of unweighted pear-shaped slip floats in red and white is built on a simple principle: a plastic stick runs through hard foam, giving you a durable float that's easy to cast and adjustable to different water depths. The stick includes a built-in bobber stop, so you're not hunting for extra hardware before you get on the water.
What makes slip floats tick is control. Unlike fixed floats, these let you adjust your presentation depth on the fly—just use Betts Bobber Stops to set where you want to fish. Whether you're targeting suspended fish or working different layers of the water column, that flexibility matters. The 1.25" pear shape is compact enough to cast cleanly yet visible enough to track your bite in a range of light conditions.
The unweighted design keeps things simple and light, which is exactly what many anglers want when they're working small baits or finesse presentations. With 50 floats in the pack, you've got backups for when one gets tangled or lost—part of a day on the water. The red and white color combo covers most conditions and pairs well with standard rigging setups.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a slip stick float and how do I use it?
A slip stick float is a bobber with a plastic stick running through the center of hard foam. The stick has a built-in bobber stop. You thread your line through the stick, set your desired fishing depth using Betts Bobber Stops on your line, and cast. The float slides freely until it hits the bobber stop, allowing you to fish at different depths without re-rigging.
Do I need to buy Bobber Stops separately to use these floats?
These floats come with a built-in bobber stop on the stick itself. However, to adjust your fishing depth and take full advantage of the slip design, you'll use Betts Bobber Stops on your line above the float. These are sold separately.
What fish species are these floats good for?
The 1.25" unweighted pear shape and casting design make these floats well-suited for panfish, bluegill, crappie, and other freshwater species where you're using light baits and finesse presentations. The compact size keeps things subtle while remaining visible.
Are these floats weighted or unweighted?
These are unweighted, which keeps them light and sensitive for finesse fishing. The lack of added weight makes them easier to cast and better for detecting lighter bites.
