You can either put a single larger float at the top of your trace, or put a smaller ball float right before your hook, I think either way works. Tried the float above trace method at the pier and works 100% haven’t had a single problem with crabs taking my bait since I started using it, and people right next to me reel in their 5 hook traces with no bait on them. Also gives the bait some movement which is good for kahawai and probably other fish.
