Rogue River - Floating

Float or Floating is also what many people call using a Bobber.  Why would you do this you may ask when the river is moving very quickly and in prior posts you have read that the bait needs to be low just off the bottom?

Good question - my personal answer is this.
I like to use a floating method when the water is fast but you see slow or reverse current areas where there is foam or other materials floating or churning.

Using a small hook with a wax worm or wiggler and a bobber you can flip (or cast ) your set-up / rig out into the current and let it naturally drift into these slower water areas.  This presentation will allow fish that are feeding slowly to drift over and pick up some easy food.  The key is a slower presentation - when fishing is slow and the fish seem to pass on everything you present....

Slow things down a bit with a Float and offer a small bait slowly.

Good Luck
