Spoppers

[Terry Simner]

Like this one Neil (needs a 4lb+ t/c to cast it mind)

I don't think they make swimfeeders that big Stephen ... it'd have to be about 15cm long/ 4cm+ diameter! The beauty of Spoppers IMO is the sheer volume they can deposit, and all on the bottom.

Terry, you've obviously never seen, Steve "scuba" Williams homemade feeders, There as big as coke cans.

The spoppers are far more aerodynamicly accurate for the bigger rivers.

Everything's big about Scuba (sorry Steve )

It's huge Terry, just a gentle lob on my Drennan 2.25 does the job. Extremely well made, typical Dinsmore quality,.

That was a serious comment that I made earlier, if anyone has made the lead mould, then why not sell the leads to people on here. You’d be doing a big favour to useless DIY merchants like myself

For anyone who fancies a go at making a spopper, have a look on fleabay there are spombs at £1.59 each inc postage. I am using these myself to make my spoppers.

RD Tackle Brierley Hill selling them for £20 I'm led to believe..

What did you make the nose cone out of Terry?

 

[Ray Heath]

Great bit of kit, but cant really see anyone doing this themselves, when you've got to make your own lead mould?

I used this and made my own mould it's easy to do and make my own spoppers

Casting lead is very dangerous
Just please take care if you’ve not done it before.
400°c is hot enough to permanently disfigure you.
I don’t want to come across as the miserable old twit but Don’t do it unless you are geared up safely do it.
ffs never pour water over any liquid metal.
Im not the safety police but you don’t spend 20 years in the welding game without seeing some nasty burns.

 

[Eddie Bray]

It is not a good idea to pour water on any item that has a boiling/melting point higher than water and is in that state.

Some can cause issues without even being heated, strong acids or alkalines for example.

Hi all,

I now have more Spopper in stock in both green and black.

Medium Spopper Bait Dropper - Bait Rocket - Barbel Fishing World

Bait Spopper ideal for getting loose feed out to any distance and straight on to the river bed. A great alternative to a baitdropper.
