A Christmas Present from my Wife and an incentive to rig them suitably to go with an antique replica Sowerbutts Pole made by my late uncle. The floats and the pole will certainly turn heads in a Club Match against modern carbon. I have a collection of very old floats and would have to force myself to use these two splendid newcomers but I must do it. Will try to make some flat topped porcupine quills as used by the Lee anglers of the past but fear I will not be able to match the quality and finish of the ones I have received. Wonderful workmanship and you have now started me thinking of the Barbel Float you make.. If I drop enough hints maybe get one to use on the Old River Lee after my Birthday on June 14th. Lucky Me to to time my Birthday so well.

I am sure I could sort you out with some flat topped porkies if you would like Doug. Glad you like these and they have accounted for some caches over the years by other anglers that have left me quite jealous! Best of luck using them and I will be surprised if you don't give those modern tackle tarts a good run for their money ;) Ian.
Highly recommended

Took some nice roach on this float on this today during some heavy showers and the white tip did a great job of combatting the shadows cast by the tree's. Teamed up with an old centre pin I was given and a sloppy 1980's carbon float rod.
just superb
