I found the atomic bollie catapult good for distance firing 2 or 3 bollies at a time

I'd use a stick but I'm using a mixture of 22mm , 18 mm , 15 mm boilie .
Cant find a decent all rounder for them size baits

Problem is mixing the sizes up you pull the elastic long for a medium boilie and it hits the spot but a bigger boilie flies past And the smaller ones fall short

Drennan boilie pult,but put same size boilie in as obviously different sizes boilies need more/less force

I use a 24mm carbon stick. But you must bait the diverse diameters separately....
With a catty you've got the same situation. Baiting up witha mix of diameters simultaneously results in the patch where the large boilies aare at the end of the baited zone

No issues with my trusty drennan boilie pult. New rubbers as needed.

The original Drennan boiliepult works for me, but I do put a smaller pouch on it.

For longer distances I go to a throwing stick.

Surgical rubber

I purchased 3m for a £5

3M 6x9mm Elastic Natural Latex Rubber Band for Gym Bodybuilding Surgical Tube The bay

I have the drennan boilie catty.

Else I use my corba for 40plus yard or my ace carbon stick for 70-110

As long as you're Boilies are pretty hard: when I used to fish a large water at range, there was only one option, Barnet Diablo Catapult.

None of your fishing catapults come close, the Diablo has an Arm brace built in – it has to have, it's that powerful you would seriously injure your wrist without it.

I had one of those, it had what looked like two antennae protruding from the front but as you say you need hard boilies, I found they needed to be rock hard boilies so it never got used.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
