DNE
« on: October 12, 2006, 10:07:41 PM »
I bought a couple of the DNE foam floats this afternoon. Is the 20 gm float a little on the small side for the local rivers or should I upgrade to the 30 gms ones ? What has your experience been ?

I was using the 25gram DNE Floats on the Vedder last weekend, they were great for the lower water.   ;)

i find 25 grams is perfect for casting blades. 30 for roe.   depends on how light you want to go.

usingeing the 25g and if I'm on split shot i use 4med and it's perfect or when i use pencil lead it's about 1.5" long and i find that works out quite well same for the balsa ones
