Specialist Compact Feeders

Typical of the angling industry, as soon as somebody produces a product of high quality an army of ‘I can do it better than you’ imitations and copies flood the market place. To stay ahead of the game and the competition is a daunting task for any manufacturer but even harder if you are a one man band but that is exactly what Keighley based www.cagefeeders.com owner Andrew Whitham has done with the release of the new for 2011 Specialist Compact Feeders. Andrew noticed a big gap in the market for a hard wearing feeder built to the same high standard as his big river feeders but in a size more suitable for bream, tench and carp on commercial fisheries and chub and barbel on smaller rivers where a big feeder isn’t needed.

Vital Statistics

The Specialist Compact Feeders are made to exactly the same standard as there big brother. From the top you’re feeder is connected to you reel line via a big eyed swivel which is incorporated to act as a safe way of connecting to a lead clip in snaggy situations when you may need to drop the feeder to land a fish or release a snagged rig. To connect this to the feeder you have a 5 strand, 0.7mm PVD coated stainless steel wire link which is about as strong as it gets in feeder connectors, strong and very reliable. The feeder itself is made from stainless steel mesh attached to the lead via two large internal folding retainers which make the overall structure of these leads as strong and safe as you are likely to see in the United Kingdom.

To improve the all round performance of the Specialist Compact Feeders in shallow or clear water situation where stealth tactics and presentations are necessary, you have several camouflages alternative to suit any type of river or lake bed you are likely to encounter. You have Brown for all clay beds, black for silt beds and chod covered areas including next to tree lined far banks or islands where decomposed leaves are commonplace. 

With camo green, light green and lime green to deal with those weedy swims when a standard stainless feeder stands out like a tractor on Leicester Square but by carrying a selection of the Specialist Compact Feeders with you, you can simply change feeders to suit any angling environments.

Final Thoughts

The new Specialist Compact Feeders from www.cagefeeders.com are the perfect tool for all short to medium range feeder work on still waters when targeting big bream, tench and even carp. They will also find favour amongst angler who fish small to medium sized rivers that flow with a bit of pace for big chub and barbel. The Specialist Compact Feeder is available in two sizes, you have the1 ¼oz that sell for £1.35 each and the 1 ¾ oz options that sell for £1.45 each which is superb value for money for a hand made product of this quality. Both sizes are available in all five of the previously mention camo’s and colour but if you want something a little bit different, you can always give Andrew a call and he will make the feeder to your own personal specifications.
