Feeder fishing

< B >Feeder fishing consists of casting a cage filled with groundbait and baits to attract fish directly to the fishing line. This technique allows you to bait with precision in both river and pond. You choose a feeder or a method feeder depending on the distance, current, and type of fish targeted, from carp to silver fish.

This effectiveness has led to a significant rise in the popularity of this technique: the groundbait is always right next to the bait, there’s no need to probe, and the reel allows you to catch some very nice fish. With a dedicated rod and a suitable reel, you can place your rig exactly where you want it. In winter you lighten the groundbait; in summer you boost it to trigger bites. This technique mainly relies on the rhythm of casting and consistency, and you can quickly turn a simple spot into a truly active zone.

The main gear to equip yourself can be found in the section for feeder rods, feeder reels and you will also need a feeder nylon, feeder rigs, and of course feeder cages, the accessory that gave the technique its name.

As for brands, the best known for feeder are mainly Guru, Preston Innovation and Fox matrix, this technique having been especially developed in England.
