Bolt Rig Basics - Method Feeder

Jul 12 2008

While I’m at it might as well include the Method. A method feeder is basicaly a frame around which groundbait is packed into a ball. The rig is constructed in the same way as an inline bolt rig (see here ) , substituting the feeder for the weight.

I’m using the korda ( before anyone asks no I don’t work for them ) method feeder, since it has the right size clip socket for my swivels.

So, thread it together as per an inline lead

And clip the swivel into the socket at the bottom end of the feeder to create the semi-fixed bolt rig setup.

COMPONENTS
I’ve checked their site and while Wacker Bait don’t have Korda feeders, the Fox and Anchor method feeder are available and work in exactly the same way.

All other components I’ve used are available there as well ( no I don’t work for them either! ) incuding safety bolt rig kits, tubing and inline leads.

Its well worth checking with them about getting the correct size swivels for individual method feeders. Size 8 swivels are usualy the right size for inline leads in my experience.

    There are thousands of live- bait anglers, who are excellent sportsmen, but the fly fisherman can practice better conservation from the beginning….
