Description
The balloon sliders are a very helpful tool for giant tuna fishing with live baits, as well as shark fishing. It is effectively like using a balloon as a slip bobber for big game purposes. To use these, follow the instructions below:
1) Attach the Balloon Slider onto the main fishing line above the swivel and crimps.
2) Tie a rubber band onto the main line above the balloon slider at the desired bait depth. This will stop the slider from sliding up the line any farther than the desired bait depth.
3) Attach a balloon to the slider using a rubber band.
4) When checking bait simply reel up, the balloon and slider will stop at either the weight or swivel.
5) When fighting a fish the rubber bands holding the balloon onto the slider will break, allowing the slider to be wound through the guides and onto the reel.
