SconeZone Floats:
In early 2006, I had the honour of seeing a handmade float manufactured for the first time. Well, I say “honour”, but what I really mean is that I visited a rather large gentleman from Northampton who just happens to be recognised as the best Float-maker in Britain, and took him a chocolate cake as bribery. I had to know how these things were made you see!
So, me being me, I came away from there with all sorts of ideas. It’s taken me ages to “get it right”, but I’m now getting a reputation amongst some of the countries top anglers for being not only “The Thinking Angler’s Pillock” but a damn fine float-maker to boot.
I now make Pole-Floats for the likes of Andy May as well as a host of other top open anglers, but I have to make it clear that I make these floats as a HOBBY. It helps to pass the time between watching Nigella Lawson in my undercrackers and waiting for “Readers’ Wives Over-Forties” to start on channel 966.
What you do get from the Sconezone is a high quality, bespoke product that no-one else manufactures. Basically, if you want something out of the ordinary or just a design that mirrors your favourite patterns but with extra strength and quality built in, then this is the place to start. If you don’t ask, you don’t get!
I do however; have a range of my own “carp” patterns that are designed to cover almost every commercial-fishery pole-fishing situation you could find yourself in. |
