Magic Twig?

This is what you need for beachcasting on the tidal Flight.' They only do up to 6oz so you might have to double up

I still have some of those in 3.5 ozs, maybe I still have the mold as well. They would probably do a job "uptiding" for barbel in a winter spate

Here are some of mine Clive—some of the heavy ones go to 8 and nine ounces but in some swims they can still be pulled around 90 degrees to my rod.
I do like the rolled flat hand painted leads, simple to knock up and just as good as shop bought jobs, I have them from one ounce to nine ounce depending on my swim choice.

Damm, here they are-

Here is why the majority of places have banned it . Seen here holding 5kg of bait without breaking the arms .

I was racking my brains when I saw this (doesn't take much) as I remembered a few of us being given something similar during a breakfast before Clattercote many years ago. Much scratching of heads couldn't work out what it was then maybe we know now.....

I was given a feeder when I was in Thailand earlier in the year. It had three hooklinks which were baited with polystyrene balls. It was a method feeder and as the natives eat everything they catch, and the only way the fish can tell that the balls are inedible is to mouth them they only get the one chance to learn.

The method feeder was developed on one of my club waters, Hever Castle lake, I think it was called the”Emstat Feeder” and was mainly developed with bream in mind.

That Thailand feeder is on sell in this country, seen at car boot sales.

If it doesn’t have three hooks it’s similar to the original Emstat feeder.

I bet he is having second thoughts about his little wheeze and it’s commercial viability.
