The float for fishing on the current must have one important characteristic: to be stable.
For fishing on the current, specially designedThe devices, which, unlike the standard ones, have special shapes. Such floats have a wide "body", located on the upper forest part, and also two fixation points, which allow to freely control the tackle during wiring. Usually it is the shape of an egg or a pear. Based on this parameter, the type of fishing for which they are intended is also determined. The float for catching on stream with a pear-shaped "body" (when the upper part is wide, and the narrow part gradually narrows to the base) is very effective for deep-sea fish. While the egg-shaped type is intended for the type of prey, which, when bitten, always lifts the nozzle.
For long casts, the first view is usually used, since it has higher aerodynamic properties.
Float for catching on the current is mandatoryA thin metal wedge, the main function of which is to shift the center of its gravity downwards. This is what ensures verticality and stability, which hinders the influence of the current.
However, it is incorrect to assume that the float forCatch on the current can not be used for standing water. With him you can very effectively catch a perch or roach, and under favorable conditions in a calm pond, carp and crucian carp are caught on it.
Understanding the question of which float is betteron the current, you need to take into account and the area where it is supposed to fish. For example, if a fast river has a lot of rocks or boulders on the bottom, then it is not worth using very sensitive rigging. At any contact with such objects they will be lost sight of or completely drown.
Today, many manufacturers of fishing gearproduce floats designed for strong currents. As a rule, they have a flat form, which not only keeps snap in one place, but also allows you to catch after. They are mostly made of foam, equipped with a metal keel with a short plastic antenna, signaling even a weak poklev. Their weight reaches eighty grams,
Almost every specialized store offers a huge assortment of floats, which are not a problem today.
