By a 'floater' rod, you mean a carp rod for fishing with floating baits, I assume.
I did sell a Sportex Kev Float rod recently that had a 1½lbs TC, very nice and sweet action and like a few other things I've sold, kind of sorry I did now, but the house isn't big enough for everything.
In it's place I intend using a Greys G-Tec 12' (don't believe I'm going to say this) Specimen Carp Bagger (yuck, what a name!) Despite that name it is a nice rod and breaks down into four pieces with a round a 1¾+lbs TC. However, things being as they have I haven't yet tested it for that purpose, but with the onset of the silly season I tend to do more carp fishing then, so maybe soon. The rod is dicontinued now anyway, but anything close that you can find I'm sure will do the job.
That's the right sort of area you're aiming at - 1½ - 2lbs TC, nice and reasonably soft, but not too soft as you need to cast well with it also.
