Sharkbait22 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 What are folks using to hold their floats? Last spring my floats took-on some damage. I was thinking of using some kind of hard sided container BUT I don't want something bulky if possible. I like to go light on tackle.

bare foot wader Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I had the same problem, used to use a pencil case until i sat on my wading jacket on my tail gate and crushed/cracked a few floats and broke some shafts I took a plano container (about 4x8" - not sure what model size it was) and I cut out all of the walls inside, so it's just a box with a lid...works great, holds a days supply easy or you can carry a couple of boxes with differernt styles in each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I use a camera sling pack for all my stuff.. Floats, hooks, roe, whatever. Always close, never in the way, doesn't weight anything.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeontroller Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 A small plastic water bottle. Good idea, check out lexan and plastic bottles at an outdoor store like sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRT8 smoker craft Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I use a old tylenol bottle one of the big ones real tough and a nice wide opening to get them out from but I pretty much only use drennan slip floats so they are fairly small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twocoda Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 i normally keep mine just outta reach in the heaviest current...not the greatest method i know because ya have to wait for the water levels to drop to switch em up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I use a hard case for prescription glasses. Can easily fit a dozen in there, all sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Field Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I use a plastic food container that holds about 20 floats and fits my inside pocket of my vest. I likely never use more than 2 or 3 floats in a day, so I cannot give you a reason for carrying 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
