These are loaded so that they are ‘self-cocking’ as they are but for each float some or all of the thin brass discs can be removed to enable the angler to adjust the floats and use a heavier bait or to have even more of the float tip showing. Their weight is nominally 5.0g, 6.0g, 7.0g and 8.0g. The 5.0g float has one extra disc , 6.0g has two, 7.0g has three and 8.0g has four. Simply unscrew the bottom of the brass weight with it’s swivel, then take off the disc or discs that you want and re-screw the base back.

These can be trapped on the line in traditional Waggler style with rubber float stops either side of the built-in swivel eye or fixed via an adaptor of one type or another. Many anglers though use a simple Snaplink attachment with that itself trapped between float stops or similar.

This way is better as it allows you to change the size, weight or colour of a float in seconds and if you take made-up rods to take off the float when packing the rod away.

The clear discs supplied FOC as an option can help to stop the floats from diving too deeply upon hitting the water although ‘feathering’ the cast helps a lot. These are thin flexible PVC and not thick, rigid foam or plastic.

These fly very well and as is normal the bigger, longer versions extremely well.

There are two tip colours available; dark orange and yellow. Changing either to black (which, strangely, although VERY useful is by far the least popular colour) is the simplest thing to do.

Below is a guide to sizes and lengths

Product Video

Added just one to a recent order to check them out. As soon as l saw it l knew that l needed to buy more, and duly purchased 5g and 6g variants, which are perfect for my needs. The floats are of excellent quality really well finished of with a matte paint., and on testing in a bucket of water was very happy with the loading. The float sits really well in the water , tops as bright as beacons and the balsa is of premium quality. These are definitely the nicest loaded wagglers l own, making my others redundant. I am so impressed l added a quantity of the unloaded clear pellet wagglers to my armoury. These offer a great alternative to my balsa ones and will be employed for use on days where a more subtle approach is required. Again top quality materials nice bright matte tips and bought in sizes 3G 4gand 5g variants. The 5g being as heavy as l will ever need. These need to be set up and tried to find the best ways to cock them, some with the ball weights available on the market and some with locking weights either side. These should offer a softer landing on the cast will not dive as deep as the pre loaded type and offer me the more subtle approach if the fish are shy biting. I always set my pellet wagglers around 3foot deep with a 2 ft hook length to start with allowing me to fish my bait a distance away from where the float lands. Depending on the fishbresponse l don’t leave my float in the water longer than 15 seconds per cast twitching after this to allow a 2nd bite of the cherry should l not have had a bite. I re feed three pellets retrieve the float re feed 3 pellets and continue this pattern until the fish respond. It’s my favourite spring summer method and often works in to autumn. These floats will be my first choice wagglers for commercial carp F1 fishing . Top floats from the Edge range .
