FTM Bombarde Floating Fluo Red

FTM Bombarde Floating Fluo Red — Long-Distance Surface Fishing for Trout

The FTM Bombarde (bombarda) is a floating controller float built for trout anglers who need to reach fish holding just under the surface at distance. Its fluo red colour keeps it visible even on long casts.

Reach Distant Surface-Feeding Trout

When trout are sitting tight beneath the surface far out in a put-and-take or trout lake, a standard float simply won't cover the range. The Bombarde's relatively high weight combined with its streamlined, projectile-like profile loads the rod efficiently and delivers long, stable casts that put your bait right in the feeding zone.

Versatile Surface Rig for Trout Baits

Fished on a surface-style leader, the floating Bombarde works with a wide range of trailing lures — trout dough baits, spiral lures, soft plastics, and more — running just below the surface film where trout are actively feeding. The buoyant action keeps the presentation in the strike zone throughout the retrieve.

Choose the Right Variant

The FTM Bombarde Floating Fluo Red is available in several weight options. Choosing the right weight lets you match your rod rating, line strength, and the casting distance required on the day:

• Lighter weights — suited to shorter casts, lighter rods, and more delicate presentations close to the bank

• Mid-range weights — all-round choice for typical trout lake distances; works well with dough baits and spiral lures

• Heavier weights — maximum casting range on open water; ideal when fish are far out and conditions are breezy

All variants share the same floating action and fluo red colour for high visibility.
