Flat floats

You will need some lighter ones for evesham if you were in the deep pegs bellow the cafe on a low river. To find the correct weight of float to use u need to lower a rig in the water at the distance you want to fish out. Then hold the rig dead still for a few seconds. The angle the float bristle sti...

Best way of keeping Casters

Great idea im currently using old glass jars mainly coffee jars. Get the casters dry and fill em to the top and they stay good with no bag burns. Your method looks easier i must say i may try it out.
