HOW TO TIE THE BEST FREE-RUNNING FEEDER RIG! 

Keep them coming joe 👍🏻 up the tip !

Thanks, what a brilliant but simple idea. I've just redone my feeder rod, 👍👍

Here's the "simple" method I've used for 30+ years. Thread a link swivel onto the main line, draw the line through until there's a double length about 24" long. Tie a figure of eight knot to give a big loop. Pull a couple of inches of one side of the loop about 6" above where the swivel is and tie a small figure of eight knot. Attach your hook length to the little loop by whatever your preferred method is and there you have it. Adjust the dimensions to your preferred lengths and after a while you'll be doing it on the bank in about a minute.

Thanks joe really appreciate this thanks for postinf love the float stops ALIEN

Great video joe what line stops are you using and what knot do you use to attach your leader to main line keep up the good work stay safe kind regards Steve

Don't know how I missed this Joe , but glad I found it what a great idea thanks mate

Hi Joe, great rig. What brand are these rubber stops?

Hi joe When you join the smaller hook length to your shock leader loop does it matter that you don’t get the figure of 8 shape when you pull the loops together you get more of a lasso due to the thicker line, just asking as I’m sure you have spoken about it before with Rob and it was a no no, or it may of been Des .

Joe. Re- feeder links. I really think it interesting when one top match angler loves them, and another can do without them? A thought Joe, I notice you said on a roach fishing video (close in on the feeder) that you had a mark on the line that tells you just how close the fish is for swinging to hand. Could that be the leader end, on an 11 foot rod? I'm guessing one meter plus hook link say two foot? Great videos keep them coming Joe.

Thanks for this video. Safe and simple rig. One of which I use. What stops are they? Be safe during this time!

Morning Joe. You used to leave a long tag end when you trimmed off the twizzled boom Joe? Do you not do that anymore?

Hi Joe. Is 4lb line strong enough for the big carp in hallcroft. I love feeder fishing but always use 8lb main line and 6lb hooklink when big carp are about. And does the line to the feeder (method or cage) matter in your opinion. Great channel and the chats with rob thanks.

the rubber stop what brand is that?

Joe .. I'm fishing at 60m using a heli rig for roach and I reckon I'm missing 4 out of every five bites .. would you use this rig in the hope it gets me connected to more bites ?

The hookless and feederless rig, perfect for ghost fishing

Hi ...some people seem to do a second twizzel after the head or shot is pushed up...why dont u do this?

Do you cast off the shock leader

Nice one mate what rubber stops are they? Never seen the flat ones before

Just a question, using a 1mtr shock leader and say a 90cm hooklength doesn’t that mean your having to wind the knot that joins the shocker to the main line through the eyes of your tip before you cast on your short rods?

Very smart and simple but how do you store them ready to go?

Excuse me, I'm kinda new to this, so you are putting the feeder on the swivel and where is the hook going to be?

As requested, a comment below. I rate Lee kerry highly, but if say, Matt Godfrey had shown you the same tip, would it have had the same effect on your mind set? I ask this because, in my lane, I find myself very faithful to my employer, and have been given tips of my trade from someone from another company, and even though he's a good mate, I thanked for the tip, but didn't use it. Only because I somehow felt disloyal to my boss.

Hi Joe Why don't you use flurocarbom ? It's stiff & heavy

Hi Joe, how do you tie you leader to the mainline?

Hi Joe. I have found 4 types of swivels I have knocking about. 3 with a built in rubber bead and different type swivels and one with just a swivel. 2 look to have a more heavy duty clip. Would you think any of them would be OK setup with 0.28mm Reflow sinking feeder mono? I was going to send an image of the swivels but can't see that can be done on here

How do you connect shock leader to mainline joe?

💥M®✌

Who makes these stops and what is their code?

What about bomb set up line keeps spinning

How do you tie 15lb line to 4lb line 🤔🤔

035......?>??

This rig is as old as the feeder fishing itself!!! Thanks for not showing anything new. Cheers
