Pushing Gear to the Limit! Flat Float Fishing on the River Trent

In this Bitesize episode, Frankie takes on a method that’s almost alien to most UK anglers – the flat float. While rarely seen on our rivers, it’s a deadly technique known for catching huge fish, and today we’re targeting one of the biggest and hardest fighting species of them all… the barbel.

In this video we cover:
✅ How to bait the swim effectively
✅ How to plumb the depth and read the river
✅ The rigs and tackle setup you’ll need
✅ Key tactics to help you land more big fish

Could the flat float be an underused secret weapon on UK rivers? Watch as Frankie puts it to the test on the River Trent!
