This is a float I have been thinking about for a while, having drawn shallow swims that require a small float but heavy enough to hold back and carry some weight. I have designed this float as a stick float with an extra large dome.

It's an ideal float made of Balsa and a strong heavy alloy stem but with the added heavy large dome to act as a floatant stablizer which can carry larger bait such as luncheon meat, worms, bunches of maggots or casters dragging along the bottom.

The float is less likely not to drag under when dragging the bottom of the river also when holding back especially when trotting under a overhanging tree or bush.

The float is strong and hardy and is ideal for catching larger fish such as Barbel and Chub The float is about six inches long and come in either yellow or blaze tops

Fast flowing shallow rivers such as the Severn, Wye, Avon and my local rivers Taff and Usk and many others would require and benefit this type of shallow stick float

Definitely worth carrying a set in your tackle box the float comes in three sizes 3 Gram 2 Gram 1 1/2 Gram
