Imo you shouldnt even bother with them. There like 35 - 40 gram floats, over kill bigtime

Really?
I thought different weight floats are meant to be used in different types of water...and to think that all this time I have been carrying a variety of floats, from 15 grams all the way up in order to 35 to match the water conditions. Go figure... :o

I use a 35g DNE about 90% of the time. Maybe thats what I've been doing wrong all these years :-[

A float is a float is a float. It doesn't really matter what you use IMO... DNE are nice and so are drennans, but I usually just use whatever I find :D I'm sure Chris would agree that's the best way to do it!
