Great video and thanks for letting us have the possibility of winning these feeders and in my case updating them to see if they can work to the advantage of the angler. The only real benefit of these feeders is to add maggots to the feed. So I would not have a hinge on the body. Indeed I would glue this so as not to let it open. Then I would 3D print a top which clipped onto the top of the feeder sides. You could fill the feeder as you did but would then clip on a top to allow maggots out of the feeder on all sides. Let me know what you think. Once again great video as usual.
Great idea Colin ! I have entered you in for a chance to win 🏆
Congratulations Colin you have been selected to win the giveaway ! 🎉 please send me a message on the WestysAngling instagram or Facebook page to claim the feeders ! 🎣
'Well, what do I think about this feeder?' I like them so much I'm giving them all away 😅
Strange design, will have a look online to see if there is any info, cheers for sharing your thoughts.
Hope the session improved after you went back to your usual method. 👍
This comment made me chuckle 😂😂
@WestysAngling haha. Send them to me, on my current record of losing feeders, I will quickly give them the burial they deserve
Love your channel in part due to your honest style, all the trails and tribulations and the banging sessions! Cheers!
Another great video Matt, I do hope Preston/Korum see this review. You never know they may ask you to review further new products. Good luck.
Let’s hope so ! The problem is if you are sponsored you are limited to that company’s products. I’m not in this for the money and sponsorship 🎣 just helping people 👍🏻👌🏻
Matt, very interesting indepth review of new feeder. Love the videos.Keep em coming.
Just found your channel what a nice change to see someone do a honest and unbiased review. Look forward to watching more of your videos
Enjoy ! 😃 plenty of videos on the channel !
Great video again westy we love watching your videos lots of tips and tricks 👍👍
Size 7 diamond swivel fit in the end of the feeder nice and snug, not so much quick change but I do ok with them
P.s not first comment this time round
I mainly use feeder since trying it a few months ago done me tea time to enjoy!!!
I think you are spot on with your comments. Why a hinge and clip which doesn't work if you load normally. Been using a cage feeder for years with maggot and groundbait even made my own with DIY wire mesh. Just another commercial gimmick to pressurise the angler's wallet.
Keep the simple reviews coming buddy you are doing a great job and saving us all some money rushing out to buy the latest product.
Alan
Thanks Alan ! Can’t beat a good old fashioned cage feeder !
I use them because I seem to have difficulty getting bread to stick to the method feeder. It gets stuck in the feeder mould.
@alanjohnson1326 I haven’t had that problem, you don’t put any water in the bread do you ? Bread is moist enough to hold together without any added liquid !
Usually I do because I crumb it the day before I go fishing. Perhaps I should try not adding the water.
I agree - these seem like they are designed to be part if a modular system - il give them ago if they release the method and cage variant
Great video as always. Think they would be best through the winter season.
Definitely! Agreed ❄️☃️
Another great video
Drennan do a good method connector....loop to loop....they're very good,dunno if you've tried them 👍
Can see them being good in winter
Another great review. I think I'll just stick with my method feeders. So much new stuff on the market now. Thanks for posting.
Good review, was thinking about having a go with these. Not sure now
Like others have said, looks like in manufacture it was easier for them hinge both the grub and window. No need for a hinge on the window. Have used the grub one no problem with the hinge, good idea once you get the hang of loading it. But the window one just leave it closed or even glue it down then fill it with your loose naturals and close the 'window'with a smear of ground bait. Try on a quick change Swivel and alternate between that and a mesh with just groundbait every half hour or so, so as not to give em to much worm/caster or such. works for me on my local that's full of good size bream. Learnt this tactic watching Steve ringer. Saying that I still think the guru or preston front loaded windows cast better. But have caught a few bream using a buoyant caster popped up on the clip with the korum. When spring comes around again I think the pop up caster on the clip with these might be a good tench trick, will have to see.
Nice review. I must confess I just pack mine from the top , I find it quicker, and you do not have to worry about ground bait under the clasp. I think they used the same base mould as the grub feeder, hence why it has the same clasp system for opening and closing. I was plagued by small perch on a recent trip, so I also used wafters (and corn) on the hook with good results. I will say however, that out of the three feeders in the camo pack, this is the least used, behind method feeder and grub feeder respectively. But, in winter, I think they could be an excellent approach. I think the 30g pack are good value for the three different types.
New to feeder fishing so would try them. Thanks
About to watch it now
good honest review matt i was actualy gonna purchase some of these...i have a lot of korum river feeders with no probs...maybe the quality control on these wasnt good...anyway matt tight lines ....
great vidio as allways thanks for the info but think ill be saveing my cash normal cage feeder will set bait in same way to develop swim keep it up tight lines dave brum
glad you tested these out westy because now looking at them i would not buy them, they seem that the top could break after a few times opening it . i will stick to my preston feeders .
Deffo needs some improvements...
I just 3d print my own feeders now..thanks to Dennis Saunders.
I use corn and maggot or two six mil pellets, when being pestered by small fish.
Another absolutely bang on review Matt 😀 what I love is there is no bias whot so ever as you just say it as it is 👍👌
Have seen these in the shops 😉 but this is the first time I've seen them in action. Having to use a hammer to get the stem out is an absolute joke 😒 I hope you get a reply from Korum over this...
To be honest, they do indeed look a lot of faffing about and can't see the point of why you would have a lid that opens out if your not able to close it due to small amounts of bait🤦🤦🤦
Think you should cut your losses with these feeders and not waist your time with them 😉
Keep up the great work pal, looking forward to the next film already 😀👍 👌💪
I haven’t had a reply from Korum, just like I didn’t get a response from MAP they don’t care once they have your money 😂
@WestysAngling that doesn't surprise me mate 😪 let's just hope the people that see your film will take note. That's how to hit back at supplier's 👍
I get on with the Map method feeders and sure you prefer them
I was hoping for a Westy’s video today and Bob’s your uncle. Tea time watching sorted.
Think 💭 they will sell ..look good .another freeder to the collection..🐠🐠🐠🐠
korum method feeder fits on Preston stems nicely 😉
If iv got a Korum stems on I use a pair of pliers when using korum or Preston feeders they do wear down eventuallllllllyyyyy 🤣
EBay quick change beads more for you money. 🎉
Great info 🎣
nice review
Hi everyone have you seen the preston ics maggat feeder have a look at them they look wicked you can get them in a 20g and there only 3 quid.
Hi, I like your reviews yout honesty is refreshing, if I was to be given one of these I would give it a go, but I wouldn't go & buy one, there is better products out in the market place. Enjoy.
they look like cut down croc shoes to me ,i'll get me coat !! 😂
Never tried feeder fishing would love to give it a go
Another banging honest no holds barred review Matt. I've seen them in the shops 😉 but this is the first time I've seen them in use.
Dont it wind you up when the quick change stems are jammed so tight. To have to use a hammer is an absolute joke imo.
What's the point in the cage flicking open if you can't close it when loaded properly due to bait round the rim 😮
Think your bang on giving them away as it seems too much fafing around to me 👍
Keep up the great work pal and look forward to the next film 👍👌💪
nice and no bullshit i like it very honest
Thanks Barry !
Don’t think I will be buying any of these Matt ,will stick to method feeders or cage feeders ,great review
Another great video, I tried a new fishery called whitmore, lost both my feeders that day lol, about 25-30 carp few doubles great place, should give it a try🙏
Whitmore, I will check it out buddy ! Thank you 🎣
I'll back this up o fish there regular basin for bigger carp and sturgeon
Can be a very very busy place though
@@EliannUk I’ve only been twice and fished east lake both times, 1st time around 30 carp and 2time must have been in 50’s, doughnut my next one to fish then keep trying at basin for the a PB, but yeah both times I’ve been it’s been very busy almost all pegs gone on east
It's always busy on basin but if you there early you can get good spot, best spot near aerator
I bought a couple of the 45g ones from my local tackle shop and the stems come out fine, so looks like you were, possibly, just unlucky! I haven’t used them yet tbh but will get around to it!
I think I may have got unlucky 😂 good luck with them Keith, let me know how you get on 👍🏻🎣
Just watched video mate nice idea but I'll stick with preston to gimmicky great video mate
Whilst I might give these feeders a try I'm more than happy with method/hybrid feeders for pellets and cage feeders for maggots
Definitely buddy !
The full feeder might be a problem if you had trouble putting bait in the window feeders
Great video, good review, but for the first time I’m going to have to disagree with you 😂😊, I only use korum feeders and never once had a problem, and I personally would have put maggots in first the top window with some groundbait to keep them in and adding a little cloud and attraction , but that’s me , I’m probably using them wrong , but fish don’t seem to mind 😂😂🎣🎣once again great video
Can’t agree with me all the time 😂Sounds like a good way of doing it Chris ! As long as your catching that’s the main thing 🎣
Would love to win them Matt 😂
Doesnt it open so you can leave stem on and change the feeder.
I'd like to see a response from one of the guru match pros, cos to be honest I can't see what is being achieved that can't be achieved with feeders already in you're tackle box, most people who regularly feeder fish, will heve, method, banjos, hybrids cage and maggot feeders, I cannot see the benefits of adding this to the armoury.
Off work today, just done a bit of research, firstly, if you watch one of the top pole anglers, as they catch a fish, they feed almost emediately while playing the fish, this settles any other hungry fish, the window dies this, the angler strikes into a fish any feed left instantly empties out of the window and settles any hungry fish, now westy me ould mate, they are not designed for starting a session, this isn't me trying to sound like I know what I'm doing😂 I didn't have a clue till 30 minutes ago, at the minute I haven't seen them used on a commercial venue, only wild natural venues, so that said, the usual method is, put bait in repeatedly casting a large feeder 10 times or simler, fish a cage feeder over it, when you're catching fish regularly with plenty of indications switch to the window feeder, this introduces slow release bait, if you strike into a fish any bait left in the feeder is deposited right in the correct area instead of being spread about by the fighting fish, does that make sence, I like the idea and will deffinately be buying some now, I do fish reservoirs for bream, they are not meant to replace method or hybrid feeders on commercials, hope this helps anyone who like me was confused.
Eh' up bud, with the ones you've just bought, try rubbing the stem down with a bit of sandpaper. I'm pretty sure it just needs the knobbly bits knocking off slightly then they'll be fine. (now you've hammered them apart lol)
Definitely buddy !! 😂 loosened them up now 😂
Mmm I agree what's the point gimmick, Mr that's perfect😂
Great video Mat been useing the Guru hybrid feeders for a few years but you have to cut the line to put on a bomb or flat feeder then I saw the preston inter change stem no line stapping you can change from feeders bombs cage without snapping the line and that korum feeder looks hideous.
The Preston ICS works great !! I agree shame they didn’t make enough of the feeders, id still be using them 😂
Good Guys What do you mean havent made enough feeder stay safe tight lines Guys.
They are hard to get hold of the Preston ICS system feeders
Show korum this video and get some new ones sent out must be a dodgey set give the old ones away and keep the newones 😜
Does seem unusual everybody else catching apart from yourself westy. I have got the maggot feeders and I have done well on them but get in a right mess with squashing the maggots in the door mate. Like you say. Why have the hinged door eh
Yes that’s true ! So maybe they are good for the maggot aspect, like you say when you use maggot feeders with twist doors they aren’t always great 👌🏻👍🏻
This feeder looks like money trap to me. Thank you for the review , you saved me couple £ ❤
But if I win I will test them my self 🤣
🙂
What lake was this mate? I fished lake2 last week and had a good day. Had a carp about 10lb and weighed another that was 11lb.
Lake 3 Andy !
Them feeders look more hassle than what there worth being honest
Dont like them 😢
Great review again
Definitely sticking to being a preston tackle tart 😂
Preston stuff is good quality!
I don’t mind a free (slightly bent) feeder 🤣
Good video mate enjoying the channel 👍👍
Will put in for the chance to win 👌🏻🎣
Korum feeders you revolve the stem slightly 🙂
Tried twisting them, these just pop out! The 30 gram ones did anyway 😁
@@WestysAngling So not that easy to interchange unlike the Preston ICS which is the one I prefer Maybe the larger method feeders I have are Avid which is the Carp version so quite heavy might be worth a try for larger waters and a higher test curve rod They rotate and a locking tab disengages the stem
Where's the fishery that you are using??
Chorley, high heyes 👌🏻
Just watching this video matt getting all packed up to go fishing at high heyes but on pond 1. Great review and might be buying these to use more in the winter. Do you think you could do a review in the winter with these feeders? Keep the reviews coming mate 👍
what brand is your groundbait bucket and riddle please?
Korum Groundbait and riddle set
Hmmmm don't think I will be rushing out to buy them ... but if you want to give them away lol ... do they come with a free hammer
😂🔨
Just what you need a hammer for changing your stems 😂
😂
He laughed at me when I said I’ve bought us a pair of short hammers for the tackle bags. Thought they would be useful for tent pegs etc. Never expecting to use one on a feeder. 😂😂😂😂
Products for products sake methinks.
If it ain't t broke dont fix it..... or hit it with a hammer!!
Stay safe and thanks
😂😂
You might not of caught anythink is the fact of the location didnt you try a bomb solar on a rod there when your dad fished that side and there was absolutely no fish in the swim😂
Haha nooo that was a little bit further down that side ! Well remembered though! That swim is usually very productive 🎣
@@WestysAngling ah far enough it all gets logged in somewhere in the brain, don't know where mind🤣
@@danharbun483 sounds like me 😂
@@WestysAngling 🤣🤣
dont rate those type of feeders myself
Matt they belong in the bin
😂😂😂🗑️
You won’t regret it lol
Just another gimmick, as you say, reinventing the wheel.👍🏻🎣
