These comfortable and easy-to-use baskets feature flexible silicone posts that prevent line tangles and keep your line organized, while allowing it to shoot effortlessly with minimal resistance. The Belly Boat model is the largest basket in the series and specially designed to be used on top of the mesh line holders that are found on float tubes and other water crafts. The flexible silicone posts keep your line coils well separated and organized of effortless line release when casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baskets are constructed from high-density, closed-cell foam, chosen for its low water absorption, buoyancy, and structural integrity. Built-in drain holes prevent water buildup, keeping the basket light and functional even in surf or rain. Most models also include a molded rod rest for hands-free rigging or fly changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn adjustable, Velcro-fitted belt secures the basket in place, and the ergonomic tray contours naturally to the body, allowing freedom of movement while wading or casting. The half-open design supports efficient line handling and quick pickup, especially in gusty conditions or when a fast recast is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silicone posts are tuned to hold modern shooting lines securely without causing damage. They flex under pressure and return to shape, offering the right balance between control and release. By keeping the line elevated and away from sharp rocks, seaweed, or gear, the basket helps protect the coating and maintain the line’s performance over time and extends its life span.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCode: 111339\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo view the rest of our Guideline collection, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.johnnorris.co.uk\/pages\/guideline-collection\" title=\"Guideline collection\"\u003eclick here.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guideline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62546789335427,"sku":"TRAGLISONBELBLAONE","price":79.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2396\/7713\/files\/TRAGLISONBELBLAONE.jpg?v=1788521469","url":"https:\/\/www.johnnorris.co.uk\/products\/guideline-sondergaard-belly-boat-black","provider":"John Norris","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
