    Are 2 rods enough?

    I have to agree with those points raised by Dave Gauntlett and would emphasize the fact that because the licence allows you to use 3 or 4 rods, it dose not mean that you must! I think most anglers who use multiple rod set ups will firstly only do so when the swim allows. 3 rods out in a still...

    New Korum river feeders

    What about this as a concept. Imagine this in a blister pack on display in your local tackle shop. 2 perf feeder bodies say oval in profile, 50mm long, one 20mm dia the other 30mm. 2 removable end caps to convert from open end to block end, fitting the smaller body externally and the medium...

    New Korum river feeders

    Whilst on the subject of the Korum feeder range. I like most probably carry far to many feeders - cage, open end and traditional, from 1/20z up and in multiples of each size just in case! Has anyone tried their combi feeder? The one with removable end caps. I have my doubts as I think that the...

    New Korum river feeders

    ive had the same problems with both their style of open end and cage feeders at one time or another, normally with those sizes of 2oz or more. I think your right as the mushroomed lead pins used to fasten the parts together aren't large enough to withstand repeated casting. But until our Mr...

    New Korum river feeders

    Ive seen how rapala tank test their lures. I would like to see a similar test to verify those claims about the profile of those feeders mentioned. Less weight in the feeder to me means that the feeder will be carried further downstream by the current when cast and obviously this will be subject...

    Korum quick release cam.

    from what ive seen the korum one works on a cam principle, similar to a fox bank stick and the prologic one with a sprung collar. I imagine all will wear over time so general care should be demonstrated but no more or less than that as when we put together the joints of our rods or tighten our...
