Slow sinking bomb - Method feeder catching carp in the summertime

An introduction to my channel with some exciting stuff to come, including Interviews, tackle reviews and live matches. In this episode I discuss the deadly method that is the slow sinking bomb-method feeder. On its day a truly unbeatable way to catch great big bags of carp in the summer in deep water. A good alternative to the wag or straight lead.

Thanks Ben. I'm thinking about giving them a go out here in N.Z. For the Rudd!

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

What u could do is try the smallest one. And put slightly less water let us know how it goes matey

I have given it a go with varying degrees of success & feels kinda strange at first because you have no visible bite indicator. what length tail do you like to start with? 🎣✨️

[@danielkoch8929]

tried this metod today on match lake, got 3 carps, need more practice with casting but it looks promising👍

Nice video,well explained,. However, could you tell me where I can get the ones you describe as wnadfloats or float wands. The nearest I can find to them are from Rainbow Plastics, but they are made in the USA and seem to be unobtainable in the UK> I have tried endless descriptions such as terdrop bubble floats. Any help you can give me for tacking down a source of these floats in the UK, would be very much appreciated.

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

There called. A just a float. And you can get them from mosquito angling. If not just get the fox medium bolt bubbles

[@georgebellamy3204]

We're can you buy these slow sinkers you are talking about.

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

Fox medium bolt bubbles in tackle shops. Or the other ones are called just-a-float. Mosquito angling sells these ones.

[@scottdavis4065]

How do you gel in the sinker and what gel is it

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

Jellatine. Using a syringe mate

[@paulnixon2921]

ben - when would you use the slow sinker as opposed to sinking pellet waggler? what was the same of the elasticated slow sinker .... couldnt quite hear properly?

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

I would set both up. This is the time of year they really really work well . The slow sinker is more likely to work better in deeper water. If elasticated is allowed then obviously will help with hook pulls as the take is very violent when they have it

[@paulnixon2921]

@@BenCossMatchFishing - what was the naame of the elasticated version?

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

Just a float. There called. Obviously u need to elasticate them yourself.

Hi thanks for posting that video, very helpful for a venue I fish quite regular. Just one question does that method become a fixed rig? A lot of venues don't allow that type of rig that i fish, cheers Nigel

[@BenCossMatchFishing]

The elasticated version is fixed. The fox medium bolt bubble isn’t fixed.

Good luck mate. In the summer these are unbeatable. Trust me
