When you are dragging or drifting a catfish rig, keeping the bait from riding directly on the bottom can make the presentation easier to manage around bottom debris and cover. Trophy Cat Tackle 2.5" Unslotted Oval Catfish Peg Floats add buoyancy to the leader for Santee-style rigs and other bottom-oriented catfish presentations.

Rig the float on the leader above the hook when you want buoyancy working close to the bait. On a Santee-style setup, that lift helps keep the bait from simply dragging flat across the bottom as the rig moves with a drift or controlled drag. It is especially useful when your goal is to maintain a bottom-oriented presentation while keeping the bait elevated.
Keep a pack ready for building Santee rigs or adding a pegged float to the leaders you use for drifting and dragging catfish baits.
The float adds buoyancy near the bait so the baited hook can ride above the bottom instead of simply dragging directly across it. This is the defining application of the peg float in a Santee-style catfish rig.
It is especially useful for Santee rigs and when drifting or dragging a bait along the bottom. The float is used when you want the sinker working along the bottom while adding lift closer to the hook and bait.
The unslotted float is threaded onto the leader as the rig is assembled rather than being added through a side slot. The included peg secures the float at the desired position on the leader.
Adding a peg float to a Santee-style rig helps elevate the bait and hook rather than allowing them to continuously drag directly against the bottom. Actual lift depends on the complete rig, including the bait and other terminal tackle.
Each pack contains 10 floats, and Trophy Cat Tackle states that each float includes one peg for securing it on the leader.
