I was thinking the other day, whilst fishing and catching nicely on the bomb, that it doesn’t seem to be such an ‘in’ method these days.
Is it because feeders have expanded into so many different types and varied applications?
I can’t help thinking there’s some oversight going on though, I generally prefer a bomb over a feeder and feeding over the top mainly because I use it in positive conditions where I don’t feel a feeder is introducing enough feed, I also prefer to spread out a feed area a little more than when repeatedly dropping a feeder on the same spot (when I can actually manage it!).
I’ve had some great catches with the feeder and it’s unbeatable at long range, imo, but at distances where I can place my feed accurately by hand I find myself increasingly turning to the bomb these days.
And…
I much prefer the experience of playing a fish on a relatively light bomb than when it’s towing a feeder around with it.
It's all horses for courses to a degree but does anyone think, on reflection of their fishing, that they overlook the bomb when chucking out a feeder?
Any general thoughts… ?
