Great film thought you handled that like brilliantly 👏👏

Back in the days when we made our own feeders, when lead wasn't illegal 🙄
I made a few feeders out of strips of day-glow Yazoo bottle plastic. The fish found them very quickly when they were really going for it.
Also using feeder links made with a Roberts bead combined with a Drennan ledger stop peg meant I could change the hook length or tail distance very easily, using a 4' tail in 4' of water the bites would come when it hit the water. 👍

I have had great success with 2 parts F1 dark, and one part green fish meal groundbait, (can be any) I have caught some really big bream on this mix, feeding plenty of corn and casters, with 2 big worms on a 12's hook. F1 dark is a terrific all round groundbait, in which I have great confidence in.
