- A very short demo how to cover any balsa-wood float with super thin coating to make it much stronger and longer lasting.
Applies to stick, waggler, slider, pole and other type floats.

Damaged or broken floats are bound to happen over time and some are more durable than others to begin with. This is a great tip I will use to strengthen my DIY balsa pike floats. Thanks
Welcome.
Hi Andrew, came across your site whilst looking for content on lure fishing for chub. What a gem! Not only is the content great, you are very free with your advice and provide links to purchasing the kit you use. Just waiting to see how long it takes for my first AliExpress orders to arrive!
Hi,
No probs. Hope it will arrive ok. If not, Ali buyer support is great.
Simply awesome video Andrew, Brilliant 🧐
Many thanks!
Will have a go tomorrow.
Hope it will end well for you.
Tried it to day with great success. Thank you ANDREW.
Great to hear. I been doing it years and finally decided to share that trick 👌
Hummmm thats a new will just add a bit more weight but is a good idea I must admit
Yes, float will be a bit heavier (less than number 8 shot fora big float, I believe) and the buyonacy of the float won't change as density of the glue is more similar to the water's than lead's 👌
I myself own a float making company and I can can you that if the float is made properly with quality materials and the correct quality paints a varnish, then this will never need to be done . My tip is to stop buying rubbish floats that you need to strengthen and buy top quality hand made products
Thanks for sharing.
However , RUBBISH floats are cheaper and if you can coat a float to last a long time then economically , you are saving money . This is always typical when someone thinks their products are superior , no one ( and I mean NO ONE ) can make a better slider float than myself but I recognise other manufacturers can make good floats . It’s just mine are better , however I do not sell them commercially but have made them for others , whose identities I do not wish to divulge.
@@colinbrown4719 cool story 😆. Fact is ... sprinkling glitter on shit does not make shit any better . If you want a Ferrari....BUY A FERRARI TO BEGIN WITH
@@colinbrown4719 but you live in Shepton mallet lol 😆 so I expected nothing from your reply lol
Good idea.
Thanks!
Try a brush I hear they are good for this kind of thing.
Hi Andrew, not directly related to this video but the korum speci video. Can I ask where you buy your mussels, as ones I get fall apart. Perhaps best hooking practice also
, thanks
Asda, Tesco, Morrisons etc.
Thanks Andrew
i wonder how to find place to fish in winter? give me some tips please.
Really depends on where you are.. But you are right - when water is cold, fish will be just specific areas.
thats basicaly a poliurethane coat. you can also use PU varnish
Cool.
@vinopit polyurethane *!! Atleast learn how to spell the bloody word lol 😆
Epoxy may be even better. With a heat gun :)
Thanks for sharing.
Interesting
👌
could just use varnish
