Feeder Fishing

[Nick]

I have just received at last a new feeder rod and reel and cant wait to try it on the River Weaver, can anyone advise me on what rigs to use for bream fishing on a slow river, diagrams would be helpful as I am a pure novice.

Thanks

Nick

Hello Dave

Thanks for the link, all being well I will get to try it out on Sunday.

I have only looked through some of the site and forum and it looks to be great fun and very helpful.

Regards

Hi Dave

Annother question, I have gone for 5lb braid as the mainline, do you suggest using a length of mono as a shock leader and if so what length and breaking strain.

I was told to have the feeder on the braid with a bead and swivel and then a hooklength attached to the swivel.

What do you think.
