Nice catch, like Alpha and Creek I use a float if it is to windy to cast accurately or if the water is very choppy. The wind/chop will do all of the work for the magnet but that leaves you with the important part of determining the depth of feeding fish which is easier without the float. I will also use a float if I am hanging up a lot or cannot determine what is on the bottom. When doing this I will still twitch or drag the bobber until I determine what presentation they want. My wife actually only fishes with tm's under a float and can put a hurting on me numbers wise once she figures out the presentation. If the small tm float is not working try to find the cigar tm floats. They are my preference for floats if I have any available and they will work on cms as well.
