mudd dog 128 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 i've recently been doing a spot of night fishing and have bought a few floats that hold the night lights-glow sticks. i've got them of EBAY and ASKARI FISHING. they do the job but im sure there could be a better seletion somewhere on another site. does anyone know or buy off any other sites that they could recommend to me???? i seen a fella using a night float that had a screw on weight on the bottom that you could change to a different size to alter the boyancy levels. ideally this would be the type of float i am looking for. i've put a pic up of a similar float just incase you's are wondering what im waffling on about any help would be apprieciated...............thanks........MUDD DOG.............

"Earth!" 503 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 id save your money and get some bite alarms mate or,before i had the spare cash to buy the alarms,i used to get the glow sticks and tape them to the end of my rods for bite indication but more often than not,the resident bats used to twitch the line so i spent most of the night on my feet thinking id had a fish nibbling.

mudd dog 128 Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 i have bite alarms but when there's a strong wind they constantly give false indications especially when using a 'drop back' indicator. using a night float to me mends this problem. i'd rather buy a specially designed float for the job, just can't seem to find the right one.

Leelyn 0 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Just stick to standard floats from your local tackle shop normaly the nite lights (drennan) come with some tubing that attaches to nite light and float or use the drennan floats like someone else mentioned [bANNED TEXT] are you fishing for Quote Link to post
