REDWING BLACKBIRD STEELHEAD SLIDER BALSA FLOAT WITH STOPPERS

The Blackbird Steelhead Slider Balsa Float with Float Stoppers is a must-have setup for serious salmon and steelhead anglers who want maximum sensitivity and a perfectly natural drift. Crafted from ultra-light balsa wood, this float rides high, tracks true with the current, and telegraphs even the softest takes—ideal for technical river fishing, low and clear water, and pressured fish.

Balsa’s natural buoyancy allows the float to be precisely balanced so only the tip rides above the surface, giving you superior bite detection and cleaner hooksets. Whether you’re drifting beads, jigs, roe, or rubber worms, the Blackbird Balsa Float helps keep your presentation in the strike zone longer with less drag and swing.

Each pack includes float stoppers for quick, easy depth adjustments and secure placement on your mainline—perfect for dialing in your presentation as water levels and holding water change throughout the day. From soft inside seams to tailouts and glides, this float excels where finesse matters most.
