    Totally agree with Dan 👌👍. As I myself make 90% of my floats. I'm on a low income 🙁. I made a couple of floats, using widgets. That come out of Guesses beer cans. Be4 you insert the staw. Injected some crazy glue, then some split shot. Let it set up, then insert your thin staw. Sell it up & paint it 👍 , different colours top& tail. Wrks awesome 😀 for trout fishing, on a ultra light spinning rod . Wet or dry fly , as the weight in the float get you the distance.

  • @TheCaptainbeefylog
    @TheCaptainbeefylog Рік тому +4

    I've been using wine cork floats since I was a child. They're cheap and work well.
    Sometimes I fish places where the fish get spooked easily and using a float can put them off, so I use a small stick found on the bank and put 2 half-hitches of line around the stick at my desired length. As the fish are used to small sticks and leaves falling into the water they aren't as easily spooked. After a while you'll need to replace the stick when it becomes water-logged.
    Using a ballon for a float, we could get baits out ridiculous distances if the wind was behind us. You can also put burley in the balloon before you inflate it. Then pop the balloon with a slingshot and dump feed all over the spot your float is. Now there are laws here against using this method as popping the balloons is considered littering, so we sometimes use helium balloons to carry baits out on a second line clipped to the first. When the bait gets where you need it, then you give a tug on your main line and the balloon detaches. You then just pull the balloon back in to use again. This works very well in saltwater and allows us to fish for tuna and mackerel without needing an off-shore capable boat.
    I've also used empty drink bottles of different sizes as floats for large baits. Again, just attach them to your line with 2 half-hitches at the length you want and away you go. YOu can also use the secondary line with snap clip release. This is good because fighting the drag of a large float can be a pain in the butt and add extra stress to your line when fighting a big fish.

    The "straw finesse float" works awesome as a strike indicator for fly fishing too. And you can put a small glow stick in the straw...

    Got these thinking they were the slightly larger Panfish floats ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rJB7cli5f1ofPVGgn80S7Yj4vqwq0gU they work just fine. The smaller size lets me carry more in my tackle box, and the 3 color choices are nice for different lighting conditions, backgrounds, etc. They aren't the most durable things in the world. But, as cheap as they are, it's not heartbreaking to lose one or have to replace a worn one. The price on these fluctuates wildly, from about $9 to almost $16. So, time your buy accordingly.

    That's crazy because hack number 4, using the mini glow sticks in the top of my small slip corks at night is something I've been doing myself for about 3 yrs now. Never seen or heard of anybody else doing it until your video tonight. On the tall slip corks( ones designed to lay on their side), I tape the mini glow stick to the top of the cork with a small piece of clear packing tape for night fishing. I tear off the tape when done and never have to change my cork for day or night.

    I like the bead making drill bits, many years ago painted cork beads were put on the line above a “Fishing Gazette” float as part of a standard livebaiting rig for pike in the UK.
    You have in America one of the best floats you can get just walking around. Porcupine quills ! they come in all sizes and all you need is a couple of soft rubber rings and a little bit of fluorescent paint, again these were very popular for years in UK, Bird feathers produce excellent quills too.

I've also seen them made as 1/2 glowstick 1/2 rattle (never used those).

Painted tops in different patterns for visibility and coated with a couple of layers of epoxy reaally sturdy and will hold a lifetime .

    I don't know if any other brand makes them but instead of smashing egg sinkers, Danielson sells lead weight wraps. Flat strips of lead that you wrap around your line. Very nice for reducing snags and should work great for wrapping around bobber. Look for them in the fly fishing section but not all stores carry them so you may have to order online.

    Hi Keith, I liked the video. Good stuff. Not sure if you've seen this stuff, but it's Lead Tape. Golfers use it, I'm not, nor will I ever be a golfer. I use it on some of my saltwater lures that "float", to get them to almost suspend. Your hammering of a egg sinker was hard to watch, poor sinker. Anyhow, this stuff is cut to length,with a adhesive backing. I put a dab of superglue on too. Happy hacking !

    I would like to know how to paint foam peg floats! I can never get the florescent red/pink/green color back on my floats after the color gets knocked off. I've tried a handful of paints and can never get the right paint or color
