floating feeder!!!

[frodo_uk]

ok guys I think I know what bz is talking about.

Only because I saw it in this weeks angling times under the " new tackle" heading.

It is as bz has already said a swimfeeder.

no float just a swim feeder. It dosn't look unlike the kamasan feeders but instead of a black cap it has an orange cap, and instead of sinking, it floats and i presume the orange cap acts as a visible bite indicator when it disappears under water. is this it bz?

it looks like an an interesting idea to me.

frodo the angler was called steve cooke who was using what i can only describe as a normal plastic maggot feeder with the wait removed.

i think he had a pice of foam rubber in side the feeder to make it float and fishing with a short hook length! strange i know but thats what he was doing! i guess the feeder in your link does the same job.cheers frodo.

I've used something like a maggot feeder on a float. Very succesfull on my local lake when the carp are feeding up in the water but not feeding on the surface.

Hope this helps
