Mikado Aperio Method Feeder

Aperio is Mikado's new generation of method feeders, designed around how anglers actually fish today and built to be extremely simple to use. Mikado went with an open design rather than a hoop type, which their testing found far more effective, and set out to remove the weak points found in other feeders on the market.

You can load it with a groundbait mould or straight by hand, thanks to its proportions and side height, and the sides angle slightly inwards to hold the mix in place. A hook tray keeps your bait perfectly presented, while special holes let the groundbait break down faster.

An internal silicone tube makes threading mono quick and protects the line while you fish. The swivel socket lets you run it fixed, or add a rubber stop between feeder and swivel to fish it on-line.
