This set is the real deal
authentic working floats tha
t I personally beach combed from Alaska
n beaches
. They have different textures but mostly net pattern texture where the floats are abraded and then the nets deteriorate and fall off leaving the net texture. Some have been exposed to the elements for years and some which are brighter were buried in the sand for years and later washed out and exposed because of storms. They were all netted at one time and used in the foreign high seas drift net fishery prior to the early 1970's.
