Pro Tip from the Gerrys Team

Pro Tip: Float setups perform best when line flow is smooth. When setting up this telescopic rod, extend each section firmly from the tip down, aligning the guides visually as you pull each joint tight with a slight turn. Because 0.25mm monofilament has built-in stretch, it provides a natural shock absorber when using fine hook-lengths. For best results, attach a small hook-length (such as 3lb4lb fluorocarbon or fine mono) below a micro swivel to prevent line twist when retrieving baits like maggots, sweetcorn, or ragworm slices.
