1. Reed Float: The biggest advantages of this material are sensitivity, firmness, resistance to extrusion and impact. At that time, when this kind of float was introduced to Taiwan Province Province, the reed float used by fishermen in Taiwan Province Province and Guangdong Province was generally used to catch comprehensive fish and tilapia, which was suitable for this kind of fish with heavy hook, heavy bait and thick line. Because of the special structure of reed, the outer layer does not need too thick paint protection, and the float can be light, but the float that is too frivolous and too strong is often not suitable for catching crucian carp with slight bait-sucking action, and the reed float is too sensitive and lively, which is not ideal for dealing with fish with rough mouth and slippery mouth, but the strong buoyancy of reed is well matched with the comprehensive fish with heavy hook and heavy bait.
2. Peacock feather floats: It has a long history and tradition to make floats with the feathers of poultry and animals. Carassius auratus floats used in the early and middle stages of hanging fishing are generally imported peacock feathers floats. The float made of this material is light in weight, good in buoyancy, low in water absorption, not easy to age, high in sensitivity, accurate in fish information transmission, and more suitable for catching crucian carp with slight movements. However, because the supply of goods is not as sufficient as that of reeds and Chinese fir, there are not many manufacturers specializing in making peacock feathers, and the production method is complicated. The qualified rate of finished products is low and the price is high, so they are generally used by professional fishermen and high-level fishermen. Compared with the three materials, the unique animal performance of Peacock Feather Float is irreplaceable by other materials, and it is the most precious float.
3. Chinese fir bleaching: Chinese fir bleaching is an ideal material for making floating objects at present. Its characteristics are that beginners and experienced anglers are easy to master, less influenced by environmental factors, and the requirements for the relationship between eye adjustment and fishing purpose are looser than other materials. Floats with arbitrary shapes can be made according to the designer's ideas, such as long-body sensitive type with smooth lines and short-body quick attack type without binding floats. Whether it is used to catch comprehensive fish or crucian carp, its performance is very stable and it is one of the easiest floats to master.
