Description

Here are the details and purpose of this item:

Feature Detail
Shape/Type Oval Floating Bead
Size/Measurement The “0.8mm” likely refers to the bore (hole) size, suggesting they are designed for lighter/standard snood (hook length) lines. Other similar Gerrys oval floating beads are listed at around in size.
Color They are often available in bright, buoyant colors (like Green or Yellow Fluro) but may come in other colors too.
Pack Size 20 Beads Per Pack
Construction They are typically designed to come on a wired spur or loop to aid in threading them onto the line.

Function and Use:

 

The main purpose of a floating bead in sea fishing is to give the bait lift and act as an attractor:

  • Bait Lift/Presentation: They provide buoyancy to lift the hook bait (like a worm or small fish section) slightly off the seabed. This is crucial for:
    • Presenting the bait naturally in the current.
    • Keeping the bait above small bottom-dwelling fish or debris.
    • Getting the bait out of the immediate reach of nuisance species like crabs, which can quickly steal bait lying directly on the sand.
  • Attraction: The bright or fluorescent colours are intended to act as a visual attractant to draw in target species such as Plaice, Flounder, Dabs, and Turbot.
  • Target Species: They are highly effective on flatfish rigs but can also be used to suspend baits for species that feed slightly off the bottom, like Whiting or Bream.
