Reversible Pike Sliders - A New Colour Combination & Modification.

I have made this style of  30g reversible pike slider a couple of times before but never with a red/pink and black tip combination.
The pair below have been also been modified slightly and this modification will be the norm on my future slider floats.
The small modification is a slightly elongated tip 50 % of which I have left bare of paint.
I did this so the float can readily except
Korda Shok Beads . . . . .
With and without picture
Why
?????????
I here you say.
This is for added protection . . . . .
When the float slides down to the weights / beads at the bottom of the rig.
A small modification as I have said but one which will increase the longevity of the float I think.
😁
These work well for both for dead and live baits.........
 I may be using them in the sea with a certain someone if I can get my timing right.
You know who you are. 😊

Morning all, Still stocking up on "Inserted Sticks" for silver fishing on the rivers. These three are constructed of balsa, carbon and wooden tips for slow running, deeper rivers. Paints used are slate grey, white and fluorescent orange with grey, pale blue, black and blush gold threads. The average weight capacity if the floats is approximately 10-12 no 4s or 2g.
