I called in my local tackle shop yesterday and while having a nose around I came across some floats that I have never seen before.
The main float looked like a conventional antenna float but a short length of thick nylon line protruded from the bottom of the float, this piece of nylon was about an Inch long. this piece of line went into a cigar shaped piece of balsa about Two Inches long. The cigar shaped piece of balsa had Two small eyes, one near the top and one near the bottom. the two eyes were not in line but offset by 90 degrees.
The float is obviously a slider of some kind, has anyone on here used one? What is the purpose of the hinged bit? Are they any good?
