River floats
River floats are specially designed floats used for fishing in river environments. These floats may differ from those used for lake or stillwater fishing, as the continuous movement and current of river water necessitate different requirements. For these floats, lightness and stability are very important to prevent the current from pulling them underwater or sweeping them away. The appropriate size and shape are also crucial to make them more resistant to the difficulties caused by the current. They may also have various weightings depending on the flow. A wide selection of river floats awaits you on the TackleBait Website, from manufacturers such as Garbolino, EnergoTeam or Cralusso.
It is important that the float is light, so that the current does not pull it underwater. At the same time, it must also be stable to stand correctly in the water despite the strong current. River floats are generally smaller, lower-profile, and may have a more streamlined shape to avoid being overly exposed to the effects of the current. Flexible floats can also be used, which are able to alleviate the pressure caused by a strong current, thus being less prone to cracking or damage. River floats may have various weightings that help regulate the float's stability and depth depending on the water flow.
