Cage 'Bucket' feeders with claws

[Nunachuk]

Hi guys, I recently read an article by JVS where he used one of the pictured feeders. Does anyone happen to know where I can buy some from please?

Thanks

Not quite the same but very close. I'm sure they are/were made by Preston. not sure if they are still made though.

EDIT
There is a seller on eBay doing them but he's in Italy.

Chris Watson who posts in the who's going to Holland thread is our man, he uses them in Holland.

Hi Guys, thanks for our replies, but the feeders that you have there are not enclosed at one end, which is what I'm after-Thanks anyway!

I would imagine they’re a continental design looking at the weight on it.
Long Range Cage Feeders | www.nisafeeders.co.uk. It might be worth getting in touch with Nick to see if he can make some with feet on them otherwise I’d ask in all the tackle shops local to de koerberg.

Nisa feeders sell spikes, maybe these were added to a bucket type feeder.

Quick question: What are they for? In all my life I have never seen one used!

I think they are to grip the bottom in fast flowing rivers.

I fish the river Ijssel in Holland a lot and we use cage feeders with claws up to 140G and we use them with claws as the claws help them grip the bottom better and prevent them from rolling! There is actually three positions to position the claws to achieve different presentation.

Hi Pat I made them for some anglers when we where fishing the last Anglo Dutch a week ago. So if you want some let me know. Bertie.

Google futterkorb mit krallen, or use German amazon. The Preston and Nisa wires aren't man enough; the continental thick stainless wire ones are the ones to go for.
