Overview
Built for salmon and steelhead anglers, this float is part of a system designed to adapt to a wide range of river conditions and depths. The high-visibility red tip and low-visibility black body help keep the float readable while staying understated in the water. A one-piece fiberglass stem adds strength, and the tubing setup allows quick float changes without cutting and re-tying. It’s a practical choice for anglers who want flexibility when matching float size or model to changing water.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for salmon and steelhead fishing, so it is not a general-purpose float for every type of angling setup.
- The 11G size may not suit all river conditions or depths, so matching the float to the water is still important.
- Most floats use 3/32-inch silicone tubing on top and 1/16-inch on the bottom, which means compatibility depends on your existing rigging.
- The red tip and black body are built for visibility balance, but the low-visibility body may be less prominent in some viewing conditions.
