What fish can you catch with a bomb weight?
What is a bomb weight used for?
A bomb weight is the smooth, aerodynamic feeder lead for casting to a clip. Feeder and bottom fishing — not a cage of bait.
How is a bomb weight different from similar gear?
Just mass. A pellet feeder holds feed; this bomb does not. Built to fly true.
When should you use a bomb weight?
Fish it on a feeder or method kit when you need distance and a clean flight without a loaded cage.
What problems does a bomb weight solve?
It flies true to the clip when a loaded cage would wobble or crack-off.
