I made my own bait dropper from some ex army mess tins, a steel barbecue skewer, and some 3oz circular grip leads and parachord. It's nice and big and heavy and ideal for punt fishing pre-baiting with hemp and corn etc.etc, and it can deliver a pint of loose feed in one go into a very small area if required. I mainly use it for pre-baiting during the day with barbel and bream in mind prior to an evening session on the Thames from the bank.
