The novice asked, what is the function of the fish float? The ancients fished and had fish.

Vertical Float: This is one of the most types and shapes of floats, such as peppers, spindles, poles, umbrellas and gyroscopes. It is very sensitive and is welcomed by many fishermen.

2, drift: mostly oval, not afraid of wind and waves, lying on the water when using. When a fish swallows bait, it stands obliquely or vertically, which is mostly used in strong winds and waves.

3. Spherical float: This kind of float has a strong floating force, which is round and jujube-shaped, and is often used for floating fish in the middle and upper waters. This kind of float is mostly used for fishing with poles.

4, line drift: also known as multi-body drift, seven-star drift, centipede drift and so on. It is made of birds' wings and feathers, or it can be made of round, oval and plastic balls in series. Its sensitivity is higher than that of vertical float, and the use of line float in depth can reduce the trouble of float adjustment when the underwater situation is complicated.

Second, briefly talk about the role of fishing floats in fishing:

1. Send a message that the fish is swallowing bait: the float is very sensitive. When the fish touches and swallows the bait hook, the position of the bait hook will change, and this change will be immediately transmitted to the float through the fishing line.

2. Indicating the position of the bait: In Jiangsu waters, the float protrudes from the water surface, accurately showing the position of the fishing point.

3. Make the bait hook in different water layers: adjust the counterweight relationship between the float and the pendant, so that the bait hook can stay in different water layers at will to catch fish in different water layers.

4. Display water depth: When fishing underwater, the length from the float to the bait hook is the water depth.

5. Show the species of hooked fish: Different fish have different feeding habits and have different reactions to floating. Experienced anglers can roughly judge what kind of fish bites the hook according to the different reactions of the float.
