Hi all,
I have been looking on the web for bait droppers but none of the sites I have been on have any. Any body have ideas' I was looking for the triangle ones. Cheers Rich

if you can find them i wouldn`t hesitate to reccomend the Fred Crouch jobbies, by no means the biggest around but quite stealthy and the only ones i can consistantly land on the money be it at 5 yds or 25 yds

Remember seeing some prototype fox plastic ones in one of the rags - anybody seen these in the shopsor have they been shelved? I like to use tiny little ones and lower in a few times - each mimicking the pva bag or stringer which will ultimately go in with the hookbait.

Andy, they've been in all the mags (I read far too many of them for my own good - and wallet), but I was in a very large tackle shop yesterday that's (a Premier Fox dealer) and they didn't have them in yet. Fox have just released a new Carp catalogue. It's attached to the current issue of Advanced Carp magazine.

Google on "Bait droppers" and you will find a variety.
Seymo do three sizes (2oz, 4oz and 8oz) all metal green tear drop style www.harrisonstackle.com/a...s_180.html I use these - the big ones require substantial rods to use! The Brass Preston droppers are available in three sizes: see www.fostersofbirmingham.co.uk/ST28688 I use these too. The Keenets Brass ones are in three sizes too: www.try-angling.co.uk/Sho...ccessories Searcher Bait Dropper from Free Spirit Fishing see: www.specialist-tackle.co....bcatid=100 The plastic ones appear to have gone from the market - I have one left. Alternatively you can make your own: The BFW site lists one at Link Roger Millar's Complete Barbel describes how to as well. -- Dr Barbus

I have the large seymo one very good but quite heavy good for putting substantional beds of bait down but I would buy the middle size if I had tested them first...

I use the Fred Crouch ones or sometimes the Thamesley, (spelling?), plastic ones, (I have two left), but I also have one made from one of those teardrop shaped tins of ham which holds about a pint and another made from a big Cadburys roses chocolate tin which I use for tope fishing.

Surely, PVA has relegated bait droppers to the garden shed.

Doug,
I would assume it would be hard to lay a bed of hemp down,via a PVA bag? But do try and let us know how you get on.

I'm sure you could lay a bed of hemp down with PVA bags. Might be by your feet though.
