Extraordinary! There's something uniquely captivating about the design and endless color variation of antiquated fishing floats. It would be a valuable opportunity to see this gentlemen's collection up close and hear his captivating story of collection first hand.
It is a cool collection
Amazing collection - fantastic colours.
It sure is, need to make a Part 2
I am stationed here in Japan, and I am finding the mother loads this summer! I am captivated by these floats.
Where in Japan? I fly out tomorrow evening to look for floats
@@alleyxvxMutsu bay is a great place to start!
WOW, Exquisite collection...Very impressive! Thanks for sharing your finds.👍🏼 Good luck and Happy hunting.🍀🙏🏼
'.......and a dead guy', he said calmly LOL :O
"Evacuation site?" Gorgeous collection.
Very Cool, fantastic collection!!
stunning collection
This is almost 10 years ago. He has a lot more now
Very cool. I was once on the lookout for fishing floats for a movie that needed them as props. We soon learned that they fetch a lot more money than we had in the budget. They're really cool.
I have a small glass fish buoy collection. I love the ones that light up, it's my aesthetic 😂 so are colored pool lights
Can someone please tell me how the glass fishing floats are used?
EDIT: Never mind, I'll google it.
We found one on the Oregon Coast that has water in it, many years ago. The water is still in it. How did the water there? Any ideas? Betty from Canada
It was underwater for a long time and pressure seeps the water into the float thru the glass. Super rare!
...so thats what those things are,...thanks,from CapeTown.
very interesting! thanks for sharing this! greetings from Ontario!
Thanks for watching
Fascinating!! Thank you!!
I'm from Saipan next to Japan and very rare that people collect here but there are collectors here.
Hi there, I know Ted...he visited my house in Las Vegas in 2008/9 timeframe...I have been trying to get a hold of him...he got lost like a thin air...can you help me get in touch with him? We share the same passion.Here's my email: beachkommer4floats@gmail.comJohn
Wow great stuff
Thanks you for sharing great stuff that floats ashore
😶
Theirs nothing like finding a real gem 💎 like 100 yr plus glass 🥰
Thanks for watching
Wow!
WOW 😍
Hello I have 3 floats that my Dad found on a Hawaiian beach. He was stationed there during WW11
Very cool!
the 2011 japan tsunami definitely washed more out to sea.
Can you identify a glass float for me with the stamp on it? Thank you
Thank you kindly...I will need to somehow take a pic of the stamp on the float. You are a sweetie.
Thank you kindly......Denise
hi i have a glass ball and it has a a reverse F sign and F and its so old, im from philippines my grand father find that ball
May ganito din po kami. Kulay green. Sa indonesian sea daw nakita ng tito ko. 1981
It's surprising that he collects those ugly plastic and wood floats as well. The glass orbs are so cool, the others so comparatively trashy. Loved the music, too.
awesome film bro!
but so good!
Why put crap music over him talking
I’ll tell 15 years ago producer to take the music out 😂
That's what Im wondering too
My girl step dad he love them big money and amazing
Hi I think I have a glass float can I send you a pic?
I know nothing about them, but I could pass it along to Ted
Just found this out ....
Had know idea ....
Thanks brother
PEACE N love -- stay safe
Now im really interested
LETS GO BRANDON
Did you mean you found an actual dead guy? Jeez
I have viewed your video because just today I found a large glass float. I know little about them. This one is about 10" in diameter and appears to be clear glass. However, it is covered with calcification, barnacles, a little sea weed, etc. My question is how does one clean one of these so it can be inspected. I don't want to damage or scratch the glass. You can reply to my post or email me at bobbroten@gmail.com Anything or comments you can provide will be greatly appreciated. I found it along the central florida east coast.
Hi, the slow way is with a mild acid like vinagar. Let it soak in the vinegar an hour or so and the old calcium deposits come right off.
The fast way is with 50 50 water and pool acid. Paint it on, it resolves the calcium quickly. Use gloves out side in a breeze. If the net is still present, flush with lots of water afterwards. It is a good idea to test a small area first.
“And a dead guy” HUH???
This was made so long ago, I am not even sure what he says :)
Novelity collectors item I guess? Could be used for Christmas ornaments I'm thinking? Fun to look for but kind of like collectors beany babies as far as I can see.
Worth a fortune... like $25 each minimum and thats for the small ones lol
Many floats bring several hundred dollars from collectors.
Thank you. At one time I had nearly 3,000 glass floats. My favorite was a CCCP NWG.
NW Glass float made for Soviet fishermen after ww2. My seconds favorites ones were nearly 250 double floats in a fisherman's pile in extreme NE China. Almost all were Dark Green. I had floats from all over the Far East from The Aleutians down and around to Pakistain. Also the Bahamas and a few European Countries. The Floats from India were cool and hard to find. The Rollers were nice also. The Japanese floats were the best marked as were many European ones. The double floats have gone back up in value after I sold off my double floats. A couple West coast USA buyers bought most of mine.
If you want to plunder and ruin fish stocks, you want to do it yourself.
