New Glow In The Dark Double Ended Pike Pencil

Image
 Hi all, I haven't made any pike floats in a very long time. So was pleased when I was asked to create a new slider based on a float I set asided many years ago. The original float the slider is based on is a double ended, reversible pike pencil with brass eyes which I have just completed. The new pike slider float is a straight through float designed to be fished flat, at depth and made from balsa. These floats are also reversible so each colour give the user options in different light conditions. The slider floats are still under construction but I have just completed the original double ended, eyed pencil style float and is pictured below. Paints used are glow in the dark yellow and fluorescent pink plus a brass eye. Only black thread was used in the construction of this version.
