Fishing Bobber-Float??

[treetiger]

When I acquired this 5/8" marble, it looked familiar; but I had to jog my memory to find the connection! I used to go fishing with the Scout troop as a kid. This was in my tackle box! I still don't know what it is but any advice would be great. Thanks--

I think that's a JABO, and I can pretty much guarantee it won't float. 🙂

I swear Ron Shepherd had a "sinker" with a marble encased in lead - man, I wish I would have taken a picture! One of the craziest things I ever saw. I was like . . . what's the point? lol

😆😆😄🤣 Wow! I really wish that I had met him. Encasing a marble in lead to go fishing with?? Good sense or humor!
