The Des Shipp Commercial Slims Pole Float Range are all constructed from a high grade of rohacell foam, creating durable and accurate floats that don’t take on any water throughout the session.
Four of the patterns include a Dura side eye which is attached over the top of the stem, this creates the strongest side eye available but a lightweight one which doesn’t affect the balance of the float at all.
There is a slim float for every occasion with bristles between 1.2mm and 2.0mm as well as carbon and durable Niti Wire stems. The legendary Chianti completes the range with its cane bristle.
The F1 Pellet float has a strong wire stem for added stability with a slim profile for shy biting F1’s, the perfect float for all commercial pellet fishing.
F1 Fine:
The F1 Fine is the perfect choice for those hard winter days where bites are at a premium. The 1.2mm Bristle is super sensitive thanks to its thin diameter, it also glows in low light conditions thanks to the hollow profile. Although this pattern has been developed for F1's its also perfect for silver fish thanks to the slim profile and carbon stem.
Carp Pellet:
The Carp Pellet is the ultimate float for the warmer months due to the 2mm hollow bristle and NiTi wire stem. This float is ideal for larger baits such as big expanders, corn or hard pellets, it also helps in distinguishing bites from line bites. The NiTi wire also offers extreme stability while remaining extremely strong and durable, it also allows the float to settle straight away.
F1 Shallow:
As the name suggests, this float is perfect for fishing for F1s and carp with smaller baits like 4mm pellets, casters, maggots and worms. It has a visible 1.5mm bristle and a carbon stem allowing your bait to fall slowly through the water. The Dura side eye makes this float extremely robust and suitable for fishing in the most demanding situations.
Carp Shallow:
Suitable for fishing in shallow water up to islands, in the margins and shallow in open water, the Carp Shallow is a true all-rounder. It features a 2mm hollow bristle which is really visible, making it ideal for bigger 6mm pellets, meat and corn. Constructed with the Dura Side eye and line through design, ideal for heavy lines and big fish!
Diamond:
The Diamond is a classic float design and perfect for fishing both short and long on the pole with substantial baits such as meat, corn and pellets. Again, this pattern features both a dura side eye and line through design, making it practically indestructible. The larger sizes are ideal for deeper water up to around 8ft.
Edge:
An out and out margin float, the Edge features a buoyant 2.5mm hollow bristle, Dura side eye and inline design making it incredibly robust and suitable for the largest baits and fish. The rugby ball shaped body offers minimal resistance while the fiberglass stem adds stability and is extremely durable.
Dibber:
Ideal for fishing in shallow water, the Dibber is constructed using a NiTi wire stem which helps the float to settle quickly, ensuring that you don’t miss out on any bites. It features a line through design and a nice buoyant tip, suitable for fishing with a wide range of baits from casters through to meat and pellets.
