The best method feeder hookbaits - Paul Garner
Fake baits. Artificial casters will pick off bigger fish than the real thing, and are great when there are a lot of nuisance fish around. ...
Punched meat. Easy to use, and with a distinctive taste that carp love, punched meat is one of my favourite Method hookbaits for larger carp. ...

Long story short, what is the most effective rig for quiver tipping? We recommend using a medium quiver tip rod for the best bite indication. The maggot feeder rig allows you to feed an area over time throughout the session, which in turn attracts fish into the baited area.
Apart from, is a method feeder a fixed rig?
Normally i just use the feeder as it was designed, hook length onto one end of the swivel, mainline to the other & then the swivel pushed into the bottom of the feeder, this making it a fixed rig.
How often should you cast a method feeder?
Within the first 30-minutes to an hour, Nick reckons you should be casting every two-minutes to quickly build the swim. Even if you've had no bites, keep going, the fish will come! Casting close to the margins of the island opposite, Nick always feathers the cast, just prior to the feeder hitting the water.
It's also a real killer technique for targeting carp of all sizes. The Method is incredibly crude-looking compared to the neatness of a Multi-Rig or a low-lying Stiff Hinge Rig. Complete with a 10mm pop-up, the Method has allowed anglers to bank some huge fish over the years, and with very little effort.
What size feeder should I use? A common mistake is to use a feeder which is too light, for example 15g or 20g. I don't use anything less than 30g because this weight allows you to cast easily and more accurately.
Choosing the Right Pellets When choosing pellets to mould around your method feeder rig you want to be opting for the micro pellets. I usually opt for 4mm pellets but 2mm will work just fine as well.
For me a feeder rod is simply a rod capable of casting a loaded swim feeder. The method of bite indication could be a quiver tip, butt indicator, one of those electronic thingies or ones thumb and forefinger. A quiver tip rod is exactly that: a rod fitted with a quiver tip that will cast a swim feeder.
Feeder Rods are also ideal to use for float fishing. ... Feeder Fishing Rods are famous for their quiver tips. They come in different tips that have various weights for extra versatility and interchangeable sensitivity.
A method feeder is a piece of tackle that allows you to present bait particles in the water around your actual hook. ... Fixed method feeders have eyes and are tied directly on to the line. Inline method feeders allow the main line to slide through freely like a slip sinker.
