It depends, I like floaters up tight& close fishing, oh == this is from a boat== you can cast them on the shore and work them out when the fish are up tight
plus when you snap your line you can get it back
same deal when you get a snarl
also you said you liked the idea of letting it sink ,and change the action == well floaters can be fished liked the freshwater ,stop & twich
they don,t cast as well as wood or heavier sinkers, there is one i use that is difficult to pop in the standard manner
except in the fall I,m more concern about color & action than float or not to float///////////////////////////
