Made to a very simple and traditional design, this float is as good today as it ever was. Sarkanda is not as strong as Norfolk reed but much lighter and length for length more buoyant. They cast well and are strong and durable - probably stronger than most modern plastic floats and are certainly more eco friendly.
Also has the option of coming in a stylish water tight bamboo float tube. Perfect for protecting the floats during their life and makes presenting them as a gift just that little bit more special! Tube will fit all four floats (with room to add others too
Suitable for rivers as well as lakes, these are great all rounders that combine supurb visibilty with the delicate bite detection only found in floats made from natural materials. Available in four sizes and lengths - 3BB (5''), 5BB (6''), 4AAA (7'') and 5AAA (8'')
My sarkanda is bougth direct from a supplier in India who helps support rural communities buying this renewable resource that grows along their river banks when other means of income are limited.
Below is feedback from a regular customer:
I have just received my latest order of floats from Ian.(Sarkanda Wagglers) The full set. As with all Ian's floats they are. WORKS OF ART! I now have forty of Ian's superb floats and I will definitely be asking Ian for more of his works of the float makers art in the coming days. Not only are the floats well made but in use at the waters edge, they make a days fishing all the more enjoyable. They somehow complete the scene. Mr. D. Chapman
