RIVER FLOATS

Explore handmade lake fishing floats designed for ponds, reservoirs, canals, commercial fisheries and quiet backwaters. Every float is individually made in England using carefully selected materials including balsa, cork, bamboo, Sarkanda reed and genuine bird quill. The collection includes wagglers, insert and bodied wagglers, loaded patterns, lift floats, margin floats, sliders, dibbers and specialist designs for different depths and distances. Whether you are fishing delicately for roach and crucians, using the lift method for tench, presenting bait accurately for bream or targeting carp close to the bank, these floats are built for clear bite detection, dependable casting and accurate presentation. Choose the size, cocking weight and sight-tip colour to suit your fishing. These are practical floats made to be fished—not mass-produced plastic alternatives. Stock is produced in small workshop batches, and unavailable patterns can be requested using the “Notify Me” option.
