Float fishing is considered to be the most popular method of angling for any season and water conditions. They can be

used in shallow or deep still waters, rivers and ponds. A float is an excellent bite indicator. It presents bait in a natural way

at the depth the fish are feeding. Floats can be made from a wide variety of materials such as cane, cork, plastic, peacock

quill, etc. For almost half a century professional anglers has been coming to a conclusion that the best building block for a

fishing float is a balsa wood. Balsa is known for its tendency to be very light, easy to shape and buoyant. A typical set of our

floats is designed for use in moving or still water conditions. Each individual float is characteristically designed to outrival

any water or weather circumstances. Float style and size should be determined by waves, wind strength, the depth of the

water, shyness of fish, its size and type of bait use and required casting distance. Experimentation is the key to success in

float fishing. The larger the float, the more shot is required to set it up properly in the water. The addition of an extra shot

allows larger floats to be cast further, to run the bait deeper and hold the bait down through faster water.
