where can I buy a sliding fishing float?
it needs to support a 1/2 oz sinker and a hook with live shrimp and line for a total of about 5/8 oz or 20 grams. i want it for speckled trout fishing.
i looked at cabellas and dicks and bass pro shops. want to fish at port aransas,tx on pier


Local tackle shops are the best bets for specialized tackle. Even the pier shop is likely to have it, as it’s a pretty standard rig.
If you want to buy them online try Bass pro shops.

Go to http://www.basspro.com
Do a search for a “Tubular Balsa Float” in the Saltwater section at BassPro.
You would want a 10″X 1″ float, ($4.69).
Hope this helps? Good luck with the Specs!
In most cases there is going to be a tackle-bait shop on or near a fishing pier. They will have a assortment of tackle usually 2/3 of it directed towards tourist but none the less they will have floats to suit your need.
Happy Fishing ~~* < *}}}}>
