Got these thinking they were the slightly larger Panfish floats kzbin.infoUgkx_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.

The leader has zero stretch to it kzbin.infoUgkxOnWw4BwVtrW450xWozo3OpVX4931NDw5 which is expected from a wire leader. Can’t test the quality of all the snaps yet but packaging was nice and neat and I couldn’t get anything to happen when I pulled on it.

Hola Paul, I do not have words to express about your great work and creativity of your tools... I just love it.

Wow! Then I shouldn't have too much trouble finding some. Along much of the east coast of NSW, we catch a species of fish called Luderick or more commonly "blackfish" (Girella tricuspidata). They are traditionally caught using a float rig very similar to the floats you make with balsa wood.You can check it out on KZbin :) I make my floats almost exactly the way you do, but for a change, I would like to make some from the reed stems as to the best of my knowledge, nobody uses them for blackfishing over here and it would be very interesting to give it a go.
