I would have thought for really spooky fish then some of the camouflaged gaffa tape could be worth loking at if only to break the colours up a little. Another advantage with taping the feeders is cutting the underwater rattle effect down on gravel. I remember my catch rate soaring on the Dove once I started to use rubber bombs when trundling baits around. Because the cost was a little prohibitive I then started to experiment with plasticine over a conventional bomb to 'dull the noise'. Excellent post Pat.
