Do you love big bluegill?
A Big thankyou goes out to Carl Hendrix
Thanks so much Carl. I thought you said a couple floats and I told you I probably wouldn't use them cause they looked so good and how right I was they are things of beauty. Being as you sent me a few guess what, I can't wait to try them out. Some for framing and some for caching fish. I'm like a little kid in a toy store man can't believe how good they look and they are so fresh I have to let them dry more they are a little damp still. Carl great floats buddy I'll let you know what I think of them, never used a quill float before they look to be sensitive as all get out. Thanks for the Rascals toooooooo.

Not a problem there setting on my drying rack now. I will use them although they are to pretty but looks like they will compliment my baits good. I think fish hang on longer when there is less resistance. Great floats Carl.

Carl gone wild with quill floats. Great to see the dillers and quills go hand-in-hand.
