Having a real bad time with pellet pumps. Had a cheapo small pump, like a bike pump with a small screw bottle on the end, rate it as 3 out of ten before it blew up after about two months. Just bought the maver with the large and small containers - doesn't work, and will be returning it this weekend. So...
What pump are you guys using, which is the best on the market? I understand ringers are bringing a new one out - anyone seem them for sale, have any thoughts?
Cheers kirk

| yes i seen them at the big one and had a play with it, should be in the shops next week Phil Ringer was saying. i must say its a great bit of kit and very strong, it will be the best pump on the market when they hit the shops. |

| I use a Fladen pump which seems very durable. It was a quick purchase from Boyes when I had an off the cuff pellet session but seems to be OK. My only gripe is the release mechanism is tricky to operate. Previously I had a Waterline pump which was excellent. I foolishly sold this when I 'gave up pole fishing' the same time selling my pole and seat box and accessories (what a ****ing idiot). Anyway stay clear of the Browning ones (if theyre still going) as theyre very prone to breaking in my experience. I used to fish pellet alot and framed regularly with bream using the method and must have gone through three or four Browning pumps before I found an alternative. |

| Shogun, pretty sure the ringer one is a Souped up version of a pop down, made of metal to last longer. Any idea how much they will sell for??? Cheers |

hi
The pop down pump is quite staggering to see it work!
Its for smaller quantities absolutely brilliant for winter fishing but as it does them so quick 2-3 lots and a good amount can be done.
I had tried 2-3 types before this one and they all worked to a degree, but the pop down 2-3 presses and they are all sinkers every single one..... |

| Looking forward to trying the ringers pellet pump, looks the biz. Such a simple product, none built to last, lets hope this is! |
