Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Commercial anglers fishing the margins. The positive shape and bright bristle suit close-in carp, F1s and mixed bag fishing when bites are coming thick and fast.
- Anglers building a simple summer pole-float selection. The four sizes give you useful options for changing depth, bait and tow without spending a load of quid.
Maybe skip if
- Finesse anglers chasing shy silverfish bites. The visible 2.5mm bristle and positive summer-bagging design aren’t aimed at the most delicate presentation.
- Anglers fishing deep, windy open water. It’s designed around margin and short-pole work in water up to five feet, so a dedicated deeper-water pattern may be a better shout.

Quick verdict
A tidy little bagging float
The NuFish Fury is a proper practical pole float for summer margin work and short-pole fishing. Its rugby-ball body, fibreglass stem and bright hollow bristle give you a clear, positive pattern for busy sessions.
It’s not trying to be an all-season, ultra-delicate silverfish float — and that’s fine. At roughly a couple of quid, it’s a cracking bit of kit for shallow commercial fishing when the fish are on the munch.

Rohacell foam, a fibreglass stem and an inline Power Eye design make a sensible package for close-range work.
The positive rugby-ball body and clear bristle suit shallow, busy summer swims well.
It gives you useful bite visibility and control when carp and F1s are feeding confidently in the edge.
The straightforward shape, bright bristle and four sizes make choosing and fishing it pleasantly simple.
At around the £2.35 RRP mark, it’s cheap enough to buy spares and build a handy little selection.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the NuFish Fury Inline Pole Fishing Float
There’s a lot to be said for keeping your pole-float box simple. You don’t always need some ultra-specialist pattern with a tiny bristle and a stem thinner than a gnat’s whisker. Sometimes you just want a float that sits right, shows a bite and gets on with the job. That’s where the NuFish Fury Inline Pole Fishing Float comes in.
This is a bright, positive little pattern aimed squarely at summer bagging. It’s designed for margin and short-pole fishing, with water up to five feet deep very much in its wheelhouse. So, we’re talking commercial-style swims, close-in lines and those bite-time sessions when the fish are having it proper large.
The shape is a rugby-ball body made from Rohacell foam. That gives the Fury a compact, positive profile rather than a long, dainty-bodied look. It’s the sort of shape that makes sense when you’re lowering a rig close to the bank, laying a bait by the margin shelf or fishing a short line over a shallow bottom.
The body is inline and uses NuFish’s Power Eye system. In plain English, that gives you a neat central connection point through the float rather than a more exposed side eye arrangement. For close-range pole work, that’s a tidy, no-nonsense setup and keeps the float looking compact on the line.
Underneath, there’s a fibreglass stem with a 0.8mm diameter. Fibreglass is a sensible choice for a float aimed at busy margin fishing: it gives the pattern a bit of firmness and helps it sit positively without turning the whole thing into a featherweight finesse job.
Up top, the hollow bristle measures 2.5mm and is designed to be highly visible. That’s dead handy when the sun gets low, the ripple starts pushing through or you’re trying to keep an eye on the float while feeding and shipping the pole. A float you can actually see is a float doing half the work already.
There are four sizes in the range: 4x10, 4x12, 4x14 and 4x16. That’s a useful spread for the kind of fishing this pattern targets. The smaller options make sense in calmer, shallower margins, while the bigger versions give you more presence when there’s a little more depth, tow or feed going in.
For rigging, keep the approach sensible. Use the lightest size that will comfortably cope with the swim, then bulk your shot so the float settles quickly and finish with a controlled dropper near the hook. If the fish are racing around the swim, a positive, uncomplicated rig is often far less faff than constantly tweaking a delicate setup.
The Fury isn’t pretending to be the answer for every pole-fishing situation. It’s not the pattern you’d automatically reach for on a deep canal, a stillwater full of finicky roach or a chilly winter session where every bristle movement matters. But for summer carp and F1s in the edge, it looks bang on the money.
With an RRP of £2.35, it sits firmly in the affordable end of the tackle box. The listed Angling Direct price is £2.49, so it’s still a cheap enough float to buy in a few sizes, keep spares ready and avoid being gutted when a snag, reed or enthusiastic margin lump claims one.

Our take
Built for the close-in chuckle
The Fury’s inline body and Power Eye system are aimed squarely at straightforward pole fishing. Pick the size to suit your bait, depth and conditions, shot it sensibly, and you’ve got a float that should settle quickly and show lift bites and proper sailaways without a load of faff.
The main appeal is versatility across the margins and short-pole line. The 4x10 and 4x12 are the natural starting points for shallower, calmer swims, while the 4x14 and 4x16 give you a bit more presence when the water’s deeper or there’s a touch of tow.
What you’re buying
A bright, positive pattern for the edge
The Fury combines a rugby-ball Rohacell foam body with a fibreglass stem and hollow bristle. It’s a compact design with enough presence for margin and short-pole work, rather than a fine-weather, ultra-delicate float.
Its inline body uses the Power Eye system, giving the rig a neat central connection. The 2.5mm bristle is deliberately easy to see, which is useful when the light goes flat or you’re watching the float over a busy, well-fed swim.
The four sizes cover a useful shallow-water spread. Match the size to the depth and tow, then keep your shotting positive enough to get the bait down without making the float look over-gunned.
Worth knowing. This is a summer bagging float designed for water up to five feet deep. Don’t treat it like a universal pole pattern for every canal, lake and season.
On the bank
Best when the fish are having it
Commercial anglers fishing the margins will get the most from the Fury. It fits those sessions where you’re rotating short lines, feeding little and often, and looking for a float that shows a proper lift or sailaway without squinting.
It also makes sense for newer pole anglers. The design is straightforward, the bristle is clear and the price doesn’t make building a small selection feel like a right wallet-buster.
For rigging, fish it with a sensible bulk-and-dropper layout. Keep the final shot close enough to control the bait, but leave enough separation to avoid turning every twitch from a feeding carp into a false alarm.
Worth knowing. Use the smallest Fury that remains stable in the swim. A smaller 4x10 or 4x12 may be bob on in a calm margin, while 4x14 or 4x16 gives you more control when depth or tow increases.
Quick answers
The bits you’ll want to know
The Fury is best viewed as a positive commercial and margin float. Its job is to make close-range summer pole fishing simple, visible and reasonably robust, not to win a contest for the tiniest possible presentation.
The size range is useful because margin swims can change quickly. One peg might be shallow and glassy first thing, then need a more stable pattern once feeding starts, wind gets on the water or you move slightly further out.
At around a couple of quid, it’s easy to keep a few in the box. That matters on busy venues, where a snapped line, snagged rig or cheeky carp in the reeds can otherwise leave you short of the pattern you actually want.
Worth knowing. The high-visibility bristle is particularly useful in poor light, but don’t confuse visibility with delicacy. For shy bites, tiny baits or winter silverfish work, reach for a more refined float.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like
- Clear, high-visibility bristle is handy as the light fades or the ripple gets up.
- Inline body and fibreglass stem make it a sensible, straightforward float for close-range pole work.
- Four sizes cover a useful spread of shallow commercial and margin situations.
- Very keenly priced for a float you can keep in the box as a reliable bagging pattern.
Worth knowing
- It’s a specialist summer and shallow-water float rather than a delicate all-rounder.
- The 2.5mm bristle may look a bit chunky when tiny baits and ultra-fussy bites are the order of the day.
- No size is supplied with the float, so you’ll need to choose carefully for your depth and conditions.
