A sbirolino (Italian) or bombarde (French) is a weighted casting float used primarily for trolling with light baits and lures. It's ideal for fishing in deeper water columns where trout feed, especially in winter when fish move toward the bottom. The float allows long-distance casting and stable depth control.
Choose lighter weights (8–12 g) for calm conditions, smaller trout, and light tackle setups. Medium weights (15–18 g) suit varied conditions and balanced casting. The 24 g variant delivers maximum distance and depth control in windy weather or very deep lakes. Match the weight to your rod's casting ability and target water depth.
Running depth (2–4 m for FTM Dancer) indicates how deep the bombarde will dive when trolled at normal speed. This is crucial because trout position themselves at specific depths based on light, temperature, and food availability. The 2–4 m range covers most deep-lake situations where trout feed, particularly during winter.
The 10–12 g variants are excellent all-round starting points, offering balanced casting distance and water control in most conditions. They work well for standard trout lake sessions and adapt to varied water temperatures and fish sizes. As you gain experience, the 8 g suits calm days while 15–24 g handles windy or very deep scenarios.
Yes. The FTM Dancer Bombarde works excellently with dough baits, spiral lures, and natural baits. The stable trolling action accommodates various bait presentations. The 2–4 m running depth keeps your offering in the trout zone throughout your retrieve, making it versatile across different baiting strategies.
Absolutely. Winter is when the FTM Dancer Bombarde excels. In cold water, trout move toward the bottom to conserve energy and find food. The 2–4 m running depth places your bait directly in the trout zone during winter sessions. Many European anglers consider sbirolino trolling the premier winter trout technique.
