Checked them out at dart and tackle friday not a big fan of the rubber , It would be nice if they could make Drennan's that thick though .

Get a room you 2!!  Anyhow, back to the topic at hand.  Upon recieveing a couple of these Stealth floats, they look very promising for Clear water applictaions, and I saw the freak bounce one off a rock and it didn't break!!  I would be interested in different sizes as well, but I will give them a test run tomorrow, now that I lost my DNE float!! ::) :'(  Chris if you find the one that I posted up here the other day........ ;D ;D

Wow!  Over 330 views and the web site traffic is going crazy!  A big thanks to every one for there enthusiasm for the new Stealth Float. 

This project took over a year to make a reality so to see this reaction is very rewarding, thank you again.

Now just to answer a couple of questions.
The Stealth float will hold slightly more weight than a Drennan # 3
The overall length is longer but this is because of the ends required to allow for the collars to attach the float to the line.
The surgical tubing may be a new concept but it works very well and the neutral color blends in to the surroundings  perfectly. We went with this tubing because it was inexpensive and readily available. Make sure to use 1-inch sections for best results!
We also made it a priority to make this float as durable as possible and the one piece design really makes a difference.
As far as more sizes are concerned this is planned for the future probably some time in 07
Right now we are just getting the ball rolling so we came out with a size that would be best for most situations.

We are very pleased with the new Stealth float and are confident that you will also find them to be a premium float at a reasonable price

SFT
Fish with Stealth!

Wine cork?? How uncivilized and brutal on the delicate minnows. :o We use corkies. ;) The corkie is attached to the main line like a float, unlike some who choose to utilize them in an "unethical manner" by allowing it to slip all the way down to the hook. ;D ;D ;D

After two blanked trips, can we come film you on Monday when the Stealth float drowns? ;D
