Cralusso Torpedo Floats and Torpedo Tuning

Product Description

These flat floats were used by Alan Scothorne when winning the gold medal in the World championships in 2004. They were also used by the Hungarians when winning the team gold medal. The innovative design of the Cralusso Torpedo flat float offers significant advantages over other flat pole floats.

The Torpedo overcomes problems often associated with this style of fishing. It does not ride up in the water or vibrate in turbulent or windy conditions because the pressure of flowing water holds the body down in line with the flow ensuring a very stable and sensitive presentation. In sizes from 0.5gm and 5gm the Torpedo floats have a fixed bristle. Floats from 6gm up to 50 gm are supplied with two standard and three flat interchangeable bristles in different colours. Also provided is a quick fitting "tuning" device that is used to exagerate the down-force effect of the water on the float. In strong flow the body will be forced well below the surface and an extra long and reversible colour bristle is included for use in these circumstances. The polyurethane material chosen for manufacture of the bodies of all Cralusso floats will not take on water so minor surface damage will not lead to adverse performance.

• Changeable tips in sizes 6g and above
