[QUOTE="nejohn, post: 2912937, member: 18988"] Like most others for me it is horses for courses, in the summer on a river it will probably be about 4 pints of maggot/caster and a loaf of bread (half liqiudised and the other half for hook bait) but in the winter it will probably be half of that. Still waters differ vastly depending on stocking levels and target species, one local venue I have fished a few times involves a boat and 3-4 buckets of groundbait laced with about 6 pints of maggot and hemp and that is before you start chucking a feeder over that initial feed and you then wait and hope, if the fish find your bait you are in for a hectic day but if the don't at least the scenery is nice. If I am fishing Wagg n Mag up in the water on a commy I can easily get through 6 pints of maggots however on the same venue on another day it could be 1 pint of maggots and a few slices of bread. When I fish my local club lakes I tend to feed 3-4 lines one will be feed heavily and the others no so heavily, generally there is lots of cover in the form of weed/lily beds so will feed one side of the peg with a constant stream of feed but the other side I will just trickle the feed in this tends to work quite well in the warmer months [/QUOTE]
