iFish Classic S125 Package (SLIDING floats)
The Package Includes:
- 1 float IFISH CLASSIC S125 Tuscany Leaf (SLIDING float)
- 1 float IFISH CLASSIC S125 Mint Leaf (SLIDING float)
- 1 pack of BG-1 jigs
The Package DOES NOT INCLUDE the 'stopper knot'. You have to tie your own stopper knot using ANY braid or mono fishing line with approx diameter 0.30-0.40mm. I use a cheap ebay braid and I do a UNI knot with 8-9 wraps. I see Richard Gene using mono instead of braid so that must work too. I consider it a waste of money to spend money and purchase a stopper knot.. Float Stoppers ARE AVAILABLE (floats folder) but they should be used ONLY UNDER the float! Above the float you should tie a knot with some kind of braid, so it can slide easily through the guides! Watch the video below for installation instructions!
CONVERSION TO FIXED 125 - you can ALWAYS put a silicone tubing under the lower eye and convert the Sliding float to Fixed! Watch the video!
Please use the 1.25 gram floats ONLY with the BG-1 1.25 gram jigs until you understand how they work together and how the float behaves! If you want a slow fall rate you can get a total weight of 1.25 gram by using ECOLITE 0.75 jigs (0.75g) + Float Sinker Kit (0.5g). There is installation instructions video on the Float Sinker Kit page (floats folder)

I strongly recommend using FIXED floats where you can, for better performance. Especially if you plan on twitching the float, the fixed float will perform better. Use SLIDING floats when u have no choice, like using a short rod, or fishing very deep.
