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.

Signature Slant Handmade Bodied Waggler Fishing FloatThe Signature Slant is my distinctive handmade take on the traditional bodied waggler. Its unusual body is created by splitting balsa and laminating a sheet of natural cork diagonally through it at approximately 45 degrees before shaping and finishing the float. Mounted on a bamboo cane stem with a hand-whipped stainless-steel bottom eye, it combines traditional natural materials with a unique contemporary appearance. Available in four cocking weights 6 No.1, 7BB, 5AAA and 5SSG the Signature Slant is ideal for stillwater fishing for tench, bream and carp, with the larger versions also suitable for slider fishing. A practical, durable and highly individual handmade fishing float made by Ian Lewis in England.
