Description

The Sydney was originally developed for the big deep open waters encountered on the Australian “coarse” match scene this float played a large part in the taking of new Australian match record of 350lb plus taken by ex pat Dara Finnigan. Crafted from Tech2 foam using a strong 1.2mm diameter glass stem and 2.5mm diameter x 50mm long hollow Hi Viz tip.

This float will “boss” almost any conditions on any big water. This pattern is supplied fitted with either a standard or Finesse type stainless steel spring eye on the tip and an extra side eye on the corner of the body for extra strength.

Made to take an olivette + droppers and available in six sizes – 1g+, 1.5g+, 2.0g+, 2.5g+, 3g+ and 4g+ and with a choice of red, yellow, green or black tips.

HB TopTip

Use these on very deep water or in really bad conditions. Use no 8 shot or stotz as droppers and don’t be afraid to lay line and shot on the bottom plus use a large backshot to combat undertow and keep your bait still.
