Hexmesh Plastic Cage Feeders

The Preston Hexmesh Plastic Cage Feeders combine a lightweight plastic cage with Preston's Hexmesh structure. This material supports the groundbait portion during casting and descent, while allowing it to release in a controlled manner once on the spot.

The open cage construction makes it possible to fine-tune the release through the composition, moisture level and compaction of the groundbait. This feeder is therefore suitable for groundbait, small particles and live bait that remains securely in the cage.

As the body is made of plastic, the feeder encounters less resistance when retrieving and rises through the water more quickly. This is practical when fishing over weed, stones or other uneven features on the bottom.

Key features

• Revolutionary Hexmesh material for controlled groundbait release
• Enough grip to keep groundbait and bait in the cage during casting
• Open cage construction for precise adjustment of the release
• Lightweight plastic body with minimal resistance when retrieving
• Suitable for groundbait, small particles and live bait

How does Hexmesh hold the groundbait without hindering its release?

The plastic mesh structure supports the contents around the cage, while allowing sufficient water to pass through the openings. This keeps the groundbait portion more intact during casting while still allowing it to break down evenly on the spot.

How do you fine-tune the groundbait release?

For a quick release, use a drier mix and compress the groundbait less firmly. If the feeder needs to sink through deeper water or the groundbait needs to release more slowly, make the mix slightly wetter and compact it a little more firmly.
