F1 Shallow – Shallow Water Float (10 pcs)

Preston F1 Shallow – subtle float for small baits

The Preston F1 Shallow is designed for shallow fishing for F1s and carp with small baits. The highly visible hollow tip registers cautious bites, while the carbon stem allows the bait to sink slowly and naturally through the water layers.

This controlled descent makes the float particularly useful when fish are not only feeding on the bottom, but intercept the bait on its way down. The strong Dura-Side side eye helps make the float resistant to intensive use and powerful fish.

Key features

• Developed for shallow fishing for F1s and carp
• Highly visible 1.5 mm hollow tip
• Carbon stem for a slow, natural bait fall
• Durable Rohacell float body
• Reinforced Dura-Side side eye
• Suitable for small pellets, casters, maggots and worms

Rigging and use

Attach the float with suitable float silicones and distribute the shot so the bait sinks gradually through the water column. Do not only watch the fully shotted float: a delayed or interrupted bait fall may already indicate that an F1 or carp has taken the bait on its way down.
