Cheaper solution to bobber stops

One of the best bobber stop alternatives are small rubber bands. Just cut a small diameter rubber band and tie a over hand knot on your line. Now just cut off both tail ends close with a nail cutter. When you want to adjust the rubber band just pinch it with your fingers and slide it up or down.
Just keep a small handful of rubber bands in your tackle box. It beats those expensive commercial bobber stops in price and performance.
