Default Exactly!

That's one disadvantage to cork fishing....you can't multi-task! Lil Bubba, is that the 3.25" 1/8 oz. Vudu or the new larger 4" 1/4 oz.? That is the pearl white and not glow, correct?

True, True, one technique I use when cork fishing is keeping the slack out of my line. I don't look at the cork, I feel for them just like fishing a jig on the bottom. If you do this you will double the amount of fish you put in the boat using this technique.

for the equipment, i use a fast snap tied to my line, a H&H oval cork, and a double rig I make myself with 80 lb leader material.

doing it this way I can swap the entire rig around quickly. you can go from a cork to a double rig on the bottom in seconds, very handy when time is of the essence.

lol, never fails, you put the pole down to grab a beer or take a whiz and its gone, soon as you grab the pole it pops back up again lol.

I never laughed so hard as when my dad did this and a sand shark took off with his pole pulling it over the side of the boat before he could grab it (peed all over himself), we never saw his pole again but the 3 ft sand shark swam by the boat a couple of times dragging the cork line and his pole behind it lol.

i just use old style corks with dbl rig or vudu with a 20 pound mono leader.

Frequency of popping depends on feeding pattern. Winter usually less popping. Most important is after pop reel in slack. I reel down in one motion. Pop reel down.

I find it's important to let the cork soak...

This is probably one of the funniest SNL skits I've seen.
