Learn To Method Feeder Fish - Coarse Fishing Quickbite 

Hi Daniel, Glad the video has inspired you to try some feeder fishing. Good luck if you do, let us know how it goes? Regards Stephen. 😊

Hi James, thanks for the comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, hopefully it helps with a few method fishing tips. Regards Steve.

Glad you enjoyed it. Regards Steve.

Size 14 will do. Regards, Tony

If you are fishing for commercial carp size 12/14 should be fine. When targeting larger specimen carp, I would opt for size 8/10. I hope this helps. Regards, Steve.

@@AnglingDirectTV Thanks Steve, could you also recommend a reliable reel for commercial carp?

@@TonyChurch112 Thanks!

If I can answer for now - It is left in the clip all the time you fish to one mark. You notice when he casts, he lifts the rod up again vertical if not slightly behind him until the feeder lands on the water. So the length he sets the line to clip up includes a little extra to allow for the rod coming back up. This achieves two things. - 1) When the line hits the clip on the cast, the soft rod tip is taking the energy out of feeder's weight. If you cast and point the rod at the feeder all the time, you're likely to snap the line at the reel's clip. You're using the rod tip as a kind of spring. 2) After the cast, you lower the rod into the rest and take up the slack line. You might get 3- 5 turns of the handle on your reel, meaning you get 15-25 turns of line on the spool when you work out the rotation ratio of the reel, i.e. 4.8 or 5.2 to 1. This will give you a buffer in case the fish does take line after it takes the bait. Hope this helps.

@@WolfmanWoody Thanks for taking the time time to reply, your response perfectly answers the question. Regards Steve.

@@AnglingDirectTV you cast out and bring the rod backward if it hit the clip move the rod forward the compensate for the hit and also your method will not bounce back a few feet resulting in you are not fishing on the marked spot

I was thinking the same thing otherwise you would have to wrap after every cast.

a 3-4000 range reel will do fine

6000 i'd say

Take a look at the Nytro reels, they are good value for money and suitable for method feeder fishing... www.anglingdirect.co.uk/nytro-ntr-fishing-reel

Hi Shaun, that's a good question. When I'm method feeder fishing I would normally use a 2oz - 3oz quiver tip. Regards Steve.

Hi Krisztian, The method feeder is not really suited for fishing in deep silt or fast flowing rivers. Depending what size/type of fish you're targeting a simple running rig with a longer hooklink would be better. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ULxYrj3BSAo.html

Hi Rich, I would normally be using a 12/14 for method feeder fishing. Regards, Steve.

@@AnglingDirectTV thanks Steve.

Soft hookable I'd say 14. Boilies on a hair 10.

Hi Kerm, I don't use a 10ft feeder rods these days however, a lot of my fishing is done with the 11ft Aquos feeder, if your looking for something lighter and shorter its a great option. www.anglingdirect.co.uk/matrix-aquos-ultra-x-feeder-rod?queryID=34f027ec830363b32daf47a2c52b3613&objectID=98343&indexName=live_ad_uk_products Regards Steve.

@@kerm9807 Anything in the range of 4-8lb would be perfect. Regards Steve.

I use Maver Reality 10ft Feeder rod and its brilliant rod!

Hi Stuart, Apologies you didn't like the music, I guess music is personal preference. Hopefully you found the video useful regardless. Regards Steve.
