[@jaycee1736]

Another great video Rob !

[@Tommeertens24858]

Great video Rob 👍

I find a no 6 stotz lightly nipped on the hooklegnth and buried in the bait helps the wafter stay intact on the dinner plate, they are line friendly as of course they are used on pole rigs

[@magpies77]

I've been doing this ages right near the eye with a unpumped expander bottom lip all the time

[@ianc9545]

​@magpies77 better than the embed feeder which has mixed reviews

[@Fabriziolbr]

good video, how do you tie your elastic on a snap link swivel ?

[@gmak1n785]

Great video thanks, I'm new to this fishing style, can I ask why a hybrid feeder and not standard method?

[@davidsmith2663]

Hi Rob l don't do a lot of match fishing but l do pleasure fish a local carp pool and am looking to buy a new rod. As its for mainly pleasure sessions landing fish at speed is not a priority l was wondering if the Free Spirit Feederlite might be a good choice for me . The carp are around 3lb to 7lb with the odd lump to double figures . Do you think the feederlite would be a good choice? l love the soft action on the 10' l checked out but the salesman said l'd be better off with the carp feeder ctx. What do you think? l would be able to use the feederlite for targeting the silvers ,ide and crucians too

Hi rob what strength tip would you use for method feeder fishing cheers

[@johnderous7874]

Rob, do you make the elasticated part yourself and how? The prefabricated ones are quite expensive..

[@RobWootton]

The feeder comes with the elasticated stem but I change the elastic to be sure the knots are good

[@johnderous1893]

Thank you for the answer, which swivels and elastics do you use? Needs to hold double figure carp

[@richgreasley3458]

Rob, why do you want the initial amount of pellets to stay in the feeder if you then clean them out before the next cast.

[@RobWootton]

It’s not for speed it’s so there’s always some feed nearby the hookbait even if the top layer gets eaten

[@chrisfox5153]

Rob please can you tell me what landing net you're using , it looks quite shallow , I find most are too deep and I struggle to unhook the fish . Cheers Chris

[@RobWootton]

It’s a middy supradry 20inch, they are great for smaller fish on commercials

[@adamsz9439]

What kind of rod you use Rob? Can you tell something more about it?

[@RobWootton]

That’s a freespirit carp feeder 11ft ctx

[@CB-xr1eg]

How were you attaching the Wowser, bait spike, band,or lasso?

[@RobWootton]

A spike. Loads better than a band for wowsers

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@RobWootton Thanks for your reply. Do you think a lasso would work? I don't use bands as |I find they can snap and ruin your hair rig.

[@stephenarmstrong6620]

Do you ever have a odd cast with the bait outside the feeder? Great film again Rob thank you 👍👍

[@RobWootton]

Very rare I’ll chuck out with the bait hanging…. I think you can get an odd tangle doing that

[@neiljones8462]

What rod and reel were you using Rob?

[@RobWootton]

Free spirit 11ft carp feeder ctx and a Daiwa castizm

[@neiljones8462]

Thanks Rob

[@laszloorosz1480]

​@@RobWoottonIsn't that reel big?

[@phee-white]

How do u soak ur pellets how many minutes?

[@RobWootton]

I add around half a pint of water to a pint of pellets and leave them to soak for half an hour or so

[@Paul.anoldangler]

What’s the point of keepnet ? You’re not match fishing

[@RobWootton]

This day was for a feature for Angling times and they needed a few fish for a catch shot.

[@chrisbarker6052]

Why when it comes to camera action we only see F1's and no Carp these videos maybe relevant to only to F1 dominated venues !!

[@johngibbin1416]

You didn’t watch the video to the end then?

[@RobWootton]

Carp and F1s Chris
