MK IV Irwell Sticks

Hi all,

I'm still on my quest for a shallow water stick float.

The float below is the 4th style I have tried.

The MK IV is shorter and wider then the previous styles and takes more weight, approximately 3g ..... ish.

This particular float is for smaller pieces of bread, pellet and meat but will also present maggot and caster well when bulked shotted in faster flows.

I only have the one at the moment and will test as soon as possible, probable for grayling on my local river.

Next will be a larger version for bigger pieces of bread, meat and paste.

PS:

I manage to get out this morinng after the ladies before the footbal started,  hooked seven, lost three, caught four , all from one run on the Irwell.

All the fish were caught from a two and a half foot deep run just before a five foot drop off, drip feeding maggots and liquified bread.

I will try to get out over the bank holiday and do a little more tesing.

😁
