Whats a good bobber setup for DEEP holes near the coast for Nooks. Like the handicap dock on the tillamook ect. I saw people using a sand shrimp egg combo? Some w yarn I believe even a little scent. Any help? Thanks

fisch said:steelheadstalker31 is right on. Don't go bigger than 1oz. Those big nooks can bite so lite you won't even see it with a big bobber. I put another bobber stop below the bobber so in case my swivell breaks I don't loose a bobber. Also people argue that you need a big bobber in tide water because the holes are 20+ft deep. Most of the locals fish 8ft and say the biters will come up and take it. I tried it last week and it worked like a swiss clock. Good bait, lite bobbers and good luck out there.
