Where and when to use feeder rods

Feeder fishing is perfect when fish stay close to the bottom and feed in one area, especially on bream waters, canals, river bends and lake drop-offs.
It’s also a great choice in cooler seasons, when slower presentations beat fast lure fishing.

On rivers, you’ll often need a bit more casting weight to hold in the current.
On still water, you can go lighter and focus on accuracy and a sensitive tip.

How to choose the right feeder rod

Start with distance and feeder weight, short and medium-range fishing is comfortable with lighter models, long casts need more length and backbone.
Tip sensitivity matters too, a softer tip shows shy bites, a stiffer tip handles wind and heavier feeders better.

If you want one “do-it-all” option, choose a balanced rod that feels easy in the hand for long sessions.
At Jahikala you can compare a wide selection at the best prices and pick the best value for your style.
