The feeder rod is a versatile and popular rod for coarse fishing. With its sensitive tip and powerful backbone, this rod is ideal for targeted fishing for bream, roach, and even carp. Whether you are fishing at a local pond, a canal, or a large river, with a feeder rod you quickly build an attractive feeding spot and register every bite.
What is a feeder rod?
A feeder rod is specially designed for fishing with a feeder cage. You fill the cage with groundbait, cast it to your spot, and wait for the fish to show up. Thanks to the sensitive tip, you can see even the smallest movements in the line. Most feeder rods come with multiple interchangeable tips with different sensitivities. This way, you can easily adjust the rod to conditions such as current or wind.
Method feeder and classic feeder
Within feeder fishing, there are two popular variants: the classic feeder and the method feeder. With the classic feeder, you often use larger feeder cages and fish at greater distances. The method feeder is usually used at shorter distances with lighter cages and is very effective on carp ponds. Method feeder rods are somewhat shorter and lighter but operate on the same principle.
Which feeder rod do you need?
The choice of a feeder rod depends on your fishing spot. For small ponds, a light and short rod (for example, a winkle picker) is sufficient. If you fish at long distances or on a river with current, you need a sturdy feeder rod from 3.60 to 3.90 meters and a higher casting weight. Make sure that the rod's casting weight can carry the total weight of the cage and the groundbait.
Feeder rod sets: ready to use
Do you want to get started right away? Then choose a complete feeder rod set. These sets are carefully composed and consist of a rod, reel, fishing line, feeder cages, leaders, and sometimes even a feeder rest. This way, you are sure that all parts are well matched and you can start immediately.
Building a feeding spot with the feeder
Feeder fishing is active fishing. By casting several times in quick succession, you create a concentrated feeding spot. The bait gradually spreads out from the cage and attracts the fish to your hook bait. This ensures optimal bait presentation and often good catches.
