Open end feeders work best in deeper water and when you want slower, more controlled bait release. Cage feeders are better for lighter feeding or very quick release. The Hexmesh design of this Preston feeder gives you finer control than standard open end patterns.
In flowing water, choose a heavier weight so the feeder sinks quickly and stays in place against the current. The Preston range goes up to 50g, which suits most river conditions. Start with the heaviest weight your rod will cast comfortably and adjust down if needed.
Load the feeder with damp groundbait or pellet mix, pack it firmly, and close the open end against the seabed. The Hexmesh holes gradually release bait as the feeder sits on the bottom. For best results, use soft groundbait that breaks down gradually through the holes.
Yes, the Hexmesh design works well in still water too. The feeder will stay in place and release bait slowly and evenly. Many feeder anglers prefer the control of open end feeders even in stillwater, especially when targeting wary fish.

The Preston Hexmesh Plastic Open End Feeder combines a traditional open-end design with precision Hexmesh holes for slower, more controlled bait release. Perfect for deeper water, fast-flowing rivers, and situations where you need exact bait placement.
Most of the feeder's walls are solid plastic with strategically placed Hexmesh holes. This design allows bait to escape gradually as the feeder sits on the bottom, giving you precise control over your feeding pattern. Ideal when natural drift or current would otherwise scatter your bait too quickly.
Available in multiple sizes (Micro, Small, Medium, Large, XL) and weights (15g–50g), the Hexmesh feeder works in both still and flowing water. Choose the weight that matches your water conditions and casting distance. The solid construction ensures reliable absinken, even in deeper or faster water.
Whether you're targeting carp, tench, bream, or roach, this feeder works with your existing feeder rod setup. The compact design makes it straightforward to load with groundbait or pellets, and the Hexmesh release pattern keeps fish feeding in your swim.
