I have to agree with Lead Thrower on this one. It all depends on the water. For me though, I love seeing that bobber go down. My heart starts racing as soon as I set the hook and see that silver flash below my bobber. Drift fishing is a rush as well, but to me, there is something about seeing that initial roll once the bobber goes down. However, I've caught far more fish drifting than I have with a bobber/jig. It all depends on the conditions though. In clear/slightly colored water jigs can be deadly when drift fishing is useless. When the water is roaring though or colored up nothing beats a properly placed clump of milky eggs........
