AS1 POLE FLOAT 0.50g (10 PCS) - 🎁

Drennan AS 1 Pole Float (10 Pieces) - Bobber

The Drennan AS1 Pole Float features a thickened 0.6 mm spring stainless steel stem for improved stability compared to glass or carbon. The stem is also only bound halfway into the spherical body, instead of extending into the brush, to enhance the balance and behavior of the bobber without adding unnecessary weight or compromising buoyancy. Alan has extensively tested these bobbers in practice and is pleased that the thicker stem withstands a lot of abuse from catching large bags of carp!

The buoyant bodies of the Drennan AS1 Pole Float itself are remarkably concentric with very little or no misalignment of the stem and ends to the body. Made from lightweight balsa for maximum buoyancy-to-size ratio, they are coated in an extremely tough acrylic paint that provides a strong shell-like construction, preventing line damage under extreme pressure from large fish.

The AS1 body is slightly slimmer than the AS2 in line with the extra sensitivity the AS1 offers. It features a hollow, 1.5 mm diameter, floating glow tip that is easily visible when fishing in the shadow of distant bank vegetation.

The Drennan AS1 Pole Float is slightly more sensitive than the AS2 and ideal for lightly biting F1s and small carp, while the thicker 1.75 mm tip of the AS2 is better suited to support larger bait and provide better visibility among vegetation. Glow tips on AS pole floats are reinforced by the section where they join the body. This strengthens the hollow glow tip at a critical point and provides an extra-strong base for the eye.

AS floats also have a double-wound stainless steel eye mounted at the base of the tip. Placing it here offers the mechanically strongest position without piercing the body and risking water ingress, which would affect the float’s performance. Because it is double wound (i.e., the eye is fully round), this means the line cannot get pinched or damaged, as often happens with conventional single-wound U-shaped eyes. These special eyes are also made from blackened stainless steel to match the body, giving a clearer demarcation line to the glow tip, making bites easier to detect!
