Keith, I hadn't tried this with real large cork floats and heavy weights, such as a couple ounces for very deep 'nook holes or fishing in higher river flows. So I tried it in the garage tonight and it doesn't work well with the paper clip; you'd likely have to use a big extra strong clip. But it worked OK with the alternative of tucking in a small loop of line into the upper cork hole with the upper peg. If you poke it in firm it will stay in place with the heavier weight, yet still pull free with a sharp yank on the line. Let me know how it works for you in that secret hole nobody knows about wink .
