Guru Slim Pencil

The unique slim and long body shape to this pattern makes it perfect for catching lots of fish very quickly in all kinds of situations. Ideal for use on a whip or in all depths on a pole, the benefit of this float is its super-fast-setting nature with the long balsa body very difficult to tangle and flick over or wrap up. 

Due to the super slim profile, the float cleanly enters and also leaves the water on a strike, offering very minimal resistance to a fish taking the bait. In the lighter sizes, this pattern is great for use on a whip or short-line tactics for small fish like bleak. 

The bristle on this pattern is fibreglass for easy shotting and great visibility, again slightly thicker than on many previous silverfish style floats that are difficult to see in poor light.

Sizes Available: 0.3g, 0.5g, 0.75g, 1g, 1.5g, 2g, 2.5g, 3g

Guru Natural Pole Float Range Explained:

This particular range of floats has been in development for a long time, we’re pretty sure you’ve seen various samples used by our consultants and in films for a good while now! However, we’ve been constantly tweaking and adding to the range during the design and production phase for us to produce a comprehensive collection of floats that are tailored to a diverse range of natural venue work across rivers, canals and stillwaters. Finally, they have arrived! 

The range comprises of eight different patterns that covers many shapes and sizes, all having specific uses in different situations. You’ve undoubtedly noticed that the floats have been tried and tested thoroughly by our team of international anglers, with the likes of Matt Godfrey, James Dent, Steve Ringer, Frankie Gianoncelli and Andy Bennett all contributing towards their production. Huge amounts of attention and lots of alterations have been made to the lengths and diameters of stems and bristles, so each size is unique and perfect for the situation in hand. 

The key feature that sets this range of floats aside from anything we or others have ever produced before is the Elastilex Paint Finish, giving the floats ultimate strength, durability and longevity. This finish means the high-quality balsa bodies of the float are protected by a super thin and incredibly durable elastic coating that wraps the body, preventing any damage to the body from wear, impact or line-cutting into it, further reducing the chances of the floats taking on water. The paint finish is dark in colour, which our key anglers felt was important with these floats been used on clear, natural venues, the dark body blending onto the water enabling ultimate focus on the Hi-Viz bristles.
