This video is showing you how to setup a sensitive bobber, ISO and blackfish float for rock float fishing. The water in the cup is not sea water. It is tap water.
Blackfish float was made a small size for the video shoot. The cup height is short, so a float was made the length short of the lower part. It's same the principle of buoyancy.
You should always refer to the sinker weight table to ensure your float buoyancy is close to neutral. The closer it is to neutral buoyancy, the more sensitive it becomes.
The video will show you a sensitive float preparation with a neutral buoyancy float ( 0 marking buoyancy ).
The top of the float is the neutral buoyancy position.
All floats have an extra buoyancy for a swivel, hook, split spot sinker and bait weight.
Press a float in the water to check the sensitivity of the float. A float rises quickly with neutral buoyancy.
The video will show you a sensitive float preparation with a neutral buoyancy float ( 1.0 marking buoyancy ).
No. 1.0 buoyancy float is 3.80 g in the buoyancy table.
The top of the float is the neutral buoyancy position.
This shows the float's own buoyancy and extra buoyancy. This is a state of not being sensitive.
Attach 3.90 g sinker to the rig.
Only the an extra buoyancy remains.
Add 1.20 g split spot sinker.
A float became neutral buoyancy.
Press a float in the water to check the sensitivity of the float. A float rises quickly with neutral buoyancy.
All floats have an extra buoyancy for a swivel, hook, split spot sinker and bait weight.
The video will show you a sensitive float preparation with a neutral buoyancy float ( 20 g buoyancy bobber float ).
Attach 20.5 g sinker to the rig.
Only the an extra buoyancy remains.
Add 0.40 g split spot sinker.
A float became neutral buoyancy.
Press a float in the water to check the sensitivity of the float. A float rises quickly with neutral buoyancy.
The buoyancy display of expensive fishing floats is precise.
If you adjust the weight of the swivel, fishing hook, sinker, and bait to create neutral buoyancy, it becomes a very sensitive float.
The video will show you a sensitive float preparation with a neutral buoyancy float ( 1.9 g buoyancy blackfish float ).
Blackfish float was made a small size for the video shoot. The cup height is short, so a float was made the length short of the lower part. It's same the principle of buoyancy.
Attach 1.90 g sinker to the rig.
Only the an extra buoyancy remains.
Add 0.30 g split spot sinker.
Still an extra buoyancy remains.
Add 0.30 g split spot sinker again.
A float became neutral buoyancy.
Press a float in the water to check the sensitivity of the float. A float rises quickly with neutral buoyancy.
If you adjust the weight of the swivel, fishing hook, sinker, and bait to create neutral buoyancy, it becomes a very sensitive float.
