They suit trout rigs on lakes and ponds, including stationary fishing with a water bubble float and trout dough or waxworms. The pilot provides sensitive bite indication with minimal resistance as trout take the bait, making it the bite indicator within this setup.
A removable central plastic pin attaches to the main line or leader using silicone tubing. The pilot can then be repositioned to change fishing depth or effective leader length. It is reusable, so repositioning does not require replacing it.
Each variant contains one yellow pilot float, with a choice of 10, 12, 14, 16 or 18 mm diameter. Attachment and intended use are shared, so select the body diameter required for your rig. No buoyancy ratings are specified, so the diameter should not be treated as a stated load capacity.
Yes, the supplier describes the yellow colour as visible at long distances. This helps you keep track of the bite indicator on rigs positioned farther out, although no specific visibility distance is given.

FTM Steckpiloten are yellow pilot floats for trout rigs on lakes and ponds. They provide sensitive bite indication with minimal resistance when trout take the bait. For stationary fishing, they can be combined with a water bubble float and trout dough or waxworms.
A removable plastic pin sits in the centre of the float body and attaches to the main line or leader using silicone tubing. The pilot float can be repositioned along the line, allowing you to vary fishing depth or effective leader length without changing the float. It is reusable, so it can be used again on subsequent rigs.
The yellow colour remains visible at long distances, helping you watch the bite indicator when fishing farther out. Choose from 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 mm diameters. The 10 and 12 mm versions have smaller bodies, 14 mm is the middle option, and 16 and 18 mm have larger bodies. All share the same attachment method, colour and intended use. Choose the body diameter required for your rig, noting that no buoyancy ratings are specified for these sizes.
Each variant contains one pilot float in the selected diameter.
