Feeder and Winkle Picker Rods – Professional Rods for Tip Fishing
Are you looking for equipment that will allow you to effectively catch white fish and precisely react to every, even the most delicate, bite? Feeder and winkle picker rods (also known as winkle picker or picker) is a category created for lovers of modern ground fishing using a feeder basket. In our online store, you will find a wide selection of rods from renowned manufacturers, which will prove useful both during recreational trips to the water and during professional sports competitions.
What is the difference between Feeder and Winklepicker? Choose equipment suited to the fishery
Although both techniques rely on bite indication using a replaceable, flexible tip, the key to success is choosing the right rod for the conditions on the water:
  • Feeder rods – these are versatile and stronger rods with a length of 3.30 m to even 4.20 m. They are characterized by a higher casting weight (often from 60 g to over 150 g in Heavy or River models). They are indispensable when fishing at long distances, in deep lakes, and in rivers with strong currents, where heavy feeder baskets are required.
  • Winkle picker rods (Picker) – this is a lighter, more subtle variation of the feeder. Pickers are shorter (usually from 2.40 m to 3.00 m) and have a low casting weight (most often up to 35-40 g or 50 g). These are ideal rods for still and shallow waters, canals, and commercial ponds. They are perfect for fishing close to the bank with light sinkers or small feeder cages.
What to look for when choosing a feeder or picker rod?
When browsing our fishing store's offer, pay attention to the key technical parameters of the blanks:
  • Casting Weight (CW) – match it to the weight of the feeder basket with groundbait. You can choose from light feeders (Light/Medium), ideal for bream and roach, and powerful river feeders (Heavy), designed for fighting strong barbel, chub, or river bream.
  • Rod length – shorter rods (pickers 2.40m–2.70m) provide incredible casting precision in hard-to-reach spots under trees. Long feeder rods (3.90m–4.20m) make it easier to cast the rig to extreme distances and help control the fish in river currents.
  • Interchangeable tips (Quiver tips) – with each rod, you will receive several tips of different sensitivity (marked in ounces – oz), made of fiberglass or carbon. They allow you to perfectly adapt the bite indication to waves, wind, and the species of fish being caught.
