In this video Will Raison gives his advice as to the optimum length of a hook length for method feeder fishing. #methodfeeder #hooklength #matchfishing #roda Safety first. Try to cast a medium or large feeder or bomb a long way with just 5lb or 6lb line on your reel and you’ll run the risk of the line breaking or, at best, you’ll make a feeble, tentative cast. The answer is to use a shockleader. In layman’s terms, this is a length of stronger line to cast off, running from your feeder down to
Add a teaspoonful of Dynamite’s Fish Gutz to a pint of water. I like to do this the evening before fishing and use water from the garden water butt, rather than chlorinated water from the tap. Pour half a bag of 2mm coarse pellets into a bait tub that has a sealed lid. Completely cover the 2mm pellets with water and soak them for two minutes.
Also, make sure your method groundbait isn’t too wet. A dry, fluffy consistency works best. It pays to experiment with visible, semi visible, or buried hook baits when using method feeder tactics. Normally it’s best to start with visible hook baits a few inches away from the feeder, remembering that hook lengths need to be at least 4 inches How long should a method feeder hook length be? 4ins. This length gets a lot of use on commercials in different scenarios. The obvious one is the Method feeder. It needs to be short so that the fish takes the bait, attempts to move, and instantly feels the weight of the feeder before it hooks itself and bolts off. How do you store long hook Experiment with mixes. I don't use feeders for the big fish as they don't seem to improve catches. I don't use them for toothed fishes either because they don't need it. Leader length matters. As a rule of thumb the stronger the current the longer the length. I tend to use 18-30 inch on lakes and 40-50 on rivers. Go to lone star lake and give 2xtj3.
