Anyone using carpa silvers, for bread and hemp fishing?
I picked 4 up this morning, I have made one up 4x14, will do a 4x16 shortly, they certainly look a good float
Will be trying them out at the weekend, on the stainy
The main difference is the tip. That tip looks like nylon and I just dont think its as good as cane for hemp fishing. I think You can also read the shot on cane better. Only my opinion though. Still looks a nice float but needs a coat of varnish as most kc bodies are not durable. I have a few as they do make some patterns I like but I give them a coat of boat varnish first.
Out of interest what shotting pattern are You using with those floats ?

They are nylon tips, I have a bulk and a couple of droppers, I have just used no8 shot so I can spread them out if needed,
