Betts Spring Stick Unweighted Cigar 2.50" 50ct
The Betts Spring Stick Unweighted Cigar float is a dependable rigging choice for anglers who want simple, reliable presentation without adding weight to their line. This 2.50-inch spring stick float works best in shallow to moderate depths where a buoyant, lightly-loaded setup keeps your bait in the strike zone with minimal resistance. The 50-count bulk pack makes it economical for serious fishing, whether you're working creeks, ponds, or rivers where finesse matters.
What sets the spring stick design apart is the quick-clip attachment: a spring-loaded mechanism at the base lets you snap the float on or off your line in seconds—no tedious knot-tying or sliding pegs required. The plastic insert runs through hard foam construction, giving the float stability and durability without adding unnecessary bulk. This unweighted design is ideal when you want your offering to move naturally with the current or stay suspended at a precise depth with just a split shot or two for casting weight.
Spring stick floats appeal to anglers after panfish, trout, and other species where a subtle presentation pays off. The 50-pack means you've got spares for different rigs, backup floats if one gets damaged, or enough to share the load across multiple setups. Whether you're building a creek kit or stocking your tackle box for the season, this unweighted cigar float delivers no-fuss functionality at the water.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the spring-clip attachment work?
The spring mechanism at the base of the float allows you to clip it directly onto your line without tying. Press to open, slide your line in, and release—the clip holds securely and removes just as easily when you need to switch floats or adjust your rig.
Is this float weighted or unweighted?
This is an unweighted float. It's designed to ride high and move naturally with minimal drag. You'll add any casting or depth weight separately—typically a small split shot or two—depending on water depth and current.
What size fish and waters is this float best for?
The 2.50-inch cigar shape and unweighted profile work well for panfish, trout, and other species in creeks, ponds, and moderate rivers. It excels in shallow to moderately deep water where a subtle, buoyant presentation is an advantage.
Why buy a 50-count pack?
The 50-pack is economical if you fish regularly or want to outfit multiple rigs. You'll also have spares on hand for lost or damaged floats, and enough to experiment with different setups throughout the season.
