Float choices

As requested a quick run through the float patterns I use, and when I'd use each float.

Hi Ben. There’s a lot of talk up north about Bristles using a flat not a foundered one but mainly the length of the Bristles 4x10 to 4x16 Roob type. Thank looking forward to your answer. Great blog please do one on bomb summer fishing.stay safe.

I can see the points people would argue for a shorter, flat bristles for baits like pellets as they would settle quickly, but for me I'd rather have a longer bristle to help get some line under the water for better presentation in wind, with the big droppers I use it shouldn't really matter anyway. With carbon stems for maggots etc the longer tops are definitely better as you can read a couple of small droppers on them. Hope this helps mate.

Hi Ben You did a video when you fish at 2 islands you had some 2min pellets can I ask what you mix with them please thanks Paul

[@bentownsendangling3486]

Hello mate, I put a bit of spotted fin milled betaine in with them, it's very oily so helps the pellets stick together well.
