A catapult . . .or a spod / spomb. Not sure throwing sticks will work well with mixers - saying that I haven't tried either for fear of embarrassment . .

Or try using both at the same time - get a Gardener pocket rocket - attach a buffer sleeve above the rocket and attach rig/hooklink to mainline helicopter style - fill spod with mixers / spod slop and cast to anything that swims!

Tried it a while ago I was using a cheap ngt stick think it was 20mm could get them 50ish yards with big biscuits. Works surprisingly well. Cattys better for the smaller ones though

You'll get extra distance if you let them soak in some liquid first and get heavier.

They work okay. Ideal for closer range I found. Large bucket so you can pick them up one handed while playing fish. Great to keep the spot rocking
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
