EASY FISHING. A short session with the method feeder on a local club lake

With a few spare hours i headed off to a local gravel pit in search of some quality fish. The wind was very strong and fishing the pole or waggler would have been difficult, so i set up the method feeder and tried out a new rod. I had some 3mm green pellets for the feeder and some 8mm halibut pellets and a stick of peperami for the hook. I started getting liners and after a while the bream moved onto my feed and i started to catch.

Well I enjoyed that short session! The method is often thought of as a commercial fisheries tactic but as you can see it is effective on 'natural' venues. I didn't cast tight to the island as I wanted to be in deeper water and if I had gone tight that would be carp territory. The noise my reel made was because it was very close to the mic', I checked it and it's ok even after 5 years of hard use including sea fishing. The net I was using was my big 30ins spoon net which is a bit cumbersome but there was a realistic chance of a 20lbs plus carp. The new rod performed well casting a 35 gram feeder over 40 yards and has a nice smooth curve in action and can't wait to try it on the barbel. I only used about a pint and a half of feed pellets with a dusting of PV1 to help it bind and half a stick of peperami so the bait bill was very low. A very simple tactic which everyone should have in their armoury Bill
