Korda’s Interceptor Distance Controller Float features interchangeable bodies between the sizes to suit the distance you are going to fish at. There are now some fantastic models by other manufacturers too. Should you need to cast out further, simply change the body to a heavier one.

To set the float up, simply pull the body off the hollow tube and insert the main line through the tube.(Image credit: Angler's Mail)
The line should emerge out of the end of the tube and through the soft recess, which is designed so that a No.11 ring swivel will fit perfectly. Tie the main line to this swivel, then wet the barrel of the swivel and push it into the soft insert.(Image credit: Angler's Mail)
Attach a 5 to 7 ft hook length, such as Drennan Double Strength or, as shown, Korda’s Kruiser Control hook length.(Image credit: Angler's Mail)
Now attach your hook, like this Mixa B in a size 12, to complement the bait size. Put a John Roberts Pellet Band or Greys Prodigy Band around your hook bait and push the point of the hook through the tag of the band and slide up the shank.(Image credit: Angler's Mail)
Lock the band into place on the shank by using a small blob of superglue.(Image credit: Angler's Mail)
The rig is almost complete and all that remains is to fit the body of the Interceptor back onto the tubing.
Do this by aligning the slot of the body with the main line and slide up onto the tube and push down to fit snugly over the soft swivel housing into the recess of the float body.
Now you are ready to start floater fishing!
