How To - Load A Hyrbid Feeder
How To - Load A Hyrbid Feeder Beginner
Here is a simple how-to guide for perfectly loading your hybrid feeder, which can be incredibly effective at various venues.
You Will Need
Mainline Match Dumbell Wafters 10mm |
Mainline Match Activated Coarse Pellets 2mm |
Mainline Match Sticky Syrup |
Korda Goo |
Hybrid Feeder |
Rig with a bayonet |
Attach your hook bait
Attach your Mainline Match Dumbell Wafters using the bayonet to your hybrid feeder rig. Test it in some water to ensure it is critically balanced.
Add some pellets
Next, add the first layer of pellets. Ensure the first layer of pellets is firmly pressed and even to create a level surface. You can also prepare your pellets with some Mainline Match Sticky Syrup for extra attraction and colour. Please see our How To Soak The Perfect Micro Pellets guide for more assistance with preparing your micro pellets.
Position your hook bait
Then, position the hook with the point facing upwards towards the fish's mouth.
Add more pellets
Gently add another layer of pellets to cover your hook bait and hook. Mold the bait evenly around the top of the feeder, creating an aerodynamic shape.
Add some Goo
Lastly, apply a generous amount of your chosen Goo flavour to the outside of the feeder just before casting. It will create a large column of flavour, scent and colour in the water to attract the fish.
