Hi Kev, Im not sure if he still does them, but scubasteve has done some cracking dirty great feeders. Cage feeders that is. If he doesn't see this post,
drop him a pm to see if he still makes them..
Hope that helps |

Hi Kev,
I too feel that there is a definate lack of large barbel style feeders on the market, however Middy, make a good tunnel style one, up to 5oz's in weight. They hold loads of bait, and due to their tunnel shape (flat bottom) they hold bottom nicely. There's loads on Ebay, alothough quite expensive. Check it out ps, they also do them in 2 and 3 oz DD http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Middy-fishing-tackle-5-x-barbel-tunnel-feeders-5oz_W0QQitemZ150269915607QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item150269915607&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318 |

he does are a bit big for regular or normal fishing but I use them for baiting up, however the medium ones are ideal and fantastic for Barbel.

the quality is pretty rubbish. The wire cage they are made of begins to deterioate and a few uses. This leaves some sire bits exposed.

I found the Middy barbel feeders to be less than robust - the weight's not attached very securely. Good feeder otherwise.
Cheers, Rich |

Speaking from experience I would watch the o-rings on those nisa feeders, they do perish and they will break on the cast.
The problem is made worse if you use allot of oil in your feed as oil is known to degrade rubber. I normally replace the o-rings on mine with a powergum or strong braid link before I use them. |
