Floats
We will forward here essence to knowing about the various floats. The choice of the good float is not always something of easy but determines success or the failure at the time of a fishing party. It must be adapted to the technique of selected fisheries and the conditions sometimes very different from one place with the other.

Floats and their forms
The float is not solely used to indicate to the fisherman a key. It enables him to forward the to the good depth and this whole while taking account of the possible currents present on the post.

A float of quality must have a good visibility by the color of its antenna, a good sensitivity, a good behavior in water and this is not least qualities necessary a good completion. Leaded supported is indicated on the float.
The form of the floats, in general
To fish in pond, in channel or calm river, to use a long and fine float. For the large rivers with current, the floats with long metal keel offer a good behavior. In this case they can have various forms (pear, olive). For the fisheries with the blow with a winch, the range of the floats is impressive. There are those which are fixed at the line on the level of their basis (), those which are fixed in point top and bottom (fixed or sliding), those intended for the fisheries of the carnivore (fixed or sliding). In these classes the models do not miss.

Small floats
For the fisheries with the blow, one uses small floats whose form and size of the body correspond to the fisheries of the moment. With each fisheries its float. Also the illustration of this heading will locate the few basic great principles which dictate the choice of a float. Generally, it is necessary to choose the lightest float, without neglecting for as much the presentation of the . The aforementioned depends on leaded which will undoubtedly ask for a certain size of float. It is thus a question for the fisherman of finding the best synthesis between Forme, Taille, Antenne (color) and Keel (stability).
In channel - With its antenna out of nylon and its keel in bamboo, this float is ideal for the fisheries of timid fish out of shallow water and per time without wind.
In channel and pond - the metal antenna gives a great sensitivity to the float and thus implies one leaded of very an greater accuracy. Its metal keel gives him a good stability. To fish with a few centimetres of the content.
Shallow water with slow current - With its body in the form of drop, this style of sensitive float carries the current badly. To least retained it leaves water. It is to be employed for small fish difficult to fish.
Water with slow current - Completely adapted to retain a on the blow float is appropriate for the shallow water animated by a slow current. With a low leaded or one, it gives of excellent results on beautiful fish.

Running water - On a blow located at 6 or eters out of running water, the body in the pear form allows a good behavior. Its keel in bamboo facilitates a throw without problems.
Running water - the spherical body allows an excellent running water behavior. If it can be recommended to rather choose a model with a metal keel for a good stability, that equipped with a keel bamboo more easily avoids the risks of mixings up.
Deep water and agitated - When water is deep and agitated surface, this type of float makes it possible to maintain its well on the blow. Per time of wind, it has an excellent behavior.
In calm channel and pond - to fish small fish, provided that its leaded either very precise, this float is appropriate perfectly for the fisheries of small fish.
All water - For the fisheries with the blow, this type of can be appropriate very well with a cane for flexible scion, in particular when the wind is party and becomes too strong. By immersing the line, the fishing party can continue.

So generally, the is a float which is fixed by bottom, it can be defined in 2 big families.
the right the with bubble
These floats understand a main stem out of plastic, reed or made with a warp end of peacock. They can receive or not an antenna. In one and the other of these two main categories, the sizes available are numerous and go from 2BB for lightest, with 3SSG for heaviest. The form of this float and the type of leaded which accompanies it make it possible a fisherman to reach with an greater accuracy a distant blow and to make sure of a certain stability of the line at the desired place.
The choice of the depends primarily on the distance of fish, its appetite, the wind and depth. Thus more the blow is distant, plus the to be used will have to be heavy. According to the appetite of fish and especially if it is difficult to fish, a equipped with an antenna is essential to identify the keys and to follow fish in its escape. By meteorology for your exit of fisheries… forecasts. “ agitated, the length of the is essential to neutralize the negotiable instruments of the wind and the reverse currents. In this case one finds models of 40 cm and more which allow of good walnut tree the banner. Lastly, the depth of the blow intervenes in the choice of the float. To avoid frightening fish when the enters in a “shallow” water, the fisherman will choose a with bubble. This float could thus be shorter while having a sufficient lift. The fixing of the must be selected without losing sight of the fact that according to these , you can have to change float.
The nipple - small tube in fixed on the line and in which encases itself or is screwed the bottom of the present in this direction many advantages. It is not only the possibility of being able to change float very quickly but also to make contact very quickly with fish at the time of the door-fitting. To fish with the is not limited only to the choice of the good float. Some are to be adhered to.

- the line, selected according to sought fish, also intervenes on the choice of the . Thus, and although it is not an absolute rule, it is advisable to retain that with a yarn of a resistance from some 700 gr. one will rather use a float of 2 or 4 , while on a yarn of one kilo one will use float of 2AAA with 2SSG.
- the throw asks for also a small round of hand to slow down the line before the enters in water. By a light pressure of the finger on the edge of the reel of the winch, the bottom of line passes by again in front of the float and is spread out correctly over water before running on the blow.
- to correctly embed the banner over all its length is primordial.
- the door-fitting should not be too abrupt not to take down. A full and regular gesture will make it possible to dive fish correctly.

Sticks
The stick is the float to be used in the rivers. Very stable it is ideal as soon as there is a supported current, to forward the to various depths. There exist four types of stick. - the stick with end curvature - the stick with pointed end - the stick with stabilizer - the stick with metal keel The stick with a body made with balsa or a very light plastic. Its stability is ensured by a bottom conceived in a heavier material like the bamboo or metal. If the stick with end curvature and that equipped with a metal keel are perfect to be retained on the blow, the stabilizer stick makes it possible to fish with casting.

It is important in this kind of fisheries to use not only the type of adapted stick but also to choose it in its good face. The aforementioned is dictated by the depth of the blow and thus of leaded which will be necessary. The content should not exceed the 50. Beyond that, the stick is not best adapted floats. Without that being the absolute rule, retain that leaded must be distributed in a uniform way for forwarding the well.
Until 50, the stick must be able to support 4 or 5 leads 4 Between 50 and 50, you will distribute 5 or 6 leads 4 Between 50 and 50, choose a stick which supports 6 to 8 leads 4.

The is the least known of the English floats. With its squat aspect which gives him a lift without equal, this float makes it possible to fish in agitated currents.
In the beginning it was conceived by our neighbors to fish with the bread but became finally general-purpose. It can thus as well be used with the maggots, of the worms or seeds like corn, as with the small sharp ones if you decide to fish Trout or the Boom. A few years ago, the were out of cork and and of a relatively important weight, too important to undoubtedly have fluid throws, without . The ingeniousness of some and the arrival of modern materials make that these floats became much more powerful by a reduction in their density and a better buoyancy. Certain models, of which those conceived by the talented Peter , are out of light plastic. Thus for a weight of 2,5 G, is leaded to put in opens can reach 10 G what in known as length on the excellent behavior of this type of float.

The are installed, like other English float, by its two ends with for each one of them a silicone ring. For that higher, slipped right under the marking of the antenna, it must be not very thick in order to support an exit of yarn on water surface.

Remain that for each size of , the diameter of nylon to be used is different. 2g => 13/00 - 4g => 14/00 - 6g => 15/00 - 8g => 16/00 - 10g => 17/00
