Roach Avons With Alloy Stems

 Hi all,

I have been working on some new

"Roach Avons With Alloy Stems" 

for a few weeks now and finally finished them last night.

There are twelve floats in total, all taking appromimately 1.0 gm or 5 no 4s

Made mainly for finicky feeding roach on slow to medium pace rivers at close range, up to two rod lengths out in the right conditions.

 All these floats have balsa bodies, alloy stems and neutral densisty hardwood tips.

I have mae a similar float previously.

I found the float in the attached link great but the tip was a little too long and fragile so altered the design slightly to make them more robust.

Hunter Green, Earth Brown, Slate Grey and Crimson Red where the colours of choice for this group of floats. All were finished with fluorescent orange tips and black / gold thread.

I will be trying them out in the next week or two, I am just wainting for the fish to settle once they get used to this cold weather.
