Korum feeders

[wellyphant]

I don't know if anyone else has tried these feeders but i bought a couple yesterday,it's the top 2 on the following page http://www.korum.co.uk/feeders.php. The plastic is very brittle and splits very easily,they only lasted a couple of casts,not very good for the price IMO.

I was whacking out a Fox in-line finned jobo the other day. It looked nice, casted well and stood up to fishing well, but it gave me very bad line twist after a few casts.

 

Do you think any end tackle is tested on the bank?

I always use the Fox flat bed method feeders and they've been no trouble at all.

 

Edit: Sorry, we're not talking about method feeders, are we?

No, I was meaning their Block end feeders.

 

My grumble about the their method feeders would be that rubber tube bit at the top your line go's through that perishes if you manage to keep one more than one season.

I wonder if oily fishmeal groundbaits perish rubber faster than would normally happen?

Like some other posters, I find Korum overrated and expensive. I have used their block end and method feeders and have only found the latter useful. Drennan block end feeders never let me down...It does make you wonder how these things get on the shelves?
