Should I use a bobber for river fishing?

When pond fishing, use a bobber to keep your bait afloat. When river fishing, use a sinker to weigh the bait down. If you use a bobber in a river, the strong current will push your bait back to the bank. The smaller the bobber and the thinner the bobber, the longer the fish hold onto the bait.
