hnv Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 If making your own batch of boilies you can easily make a small, separate batch of hookbaits with elevated levels of certain attractors. Take a small portion of basemix and sieve it to remove any larger particles or seeds that are present. Make a 1 egg mix but add say half of the attractors and liquid foods for a 4 egg mix. So for example: 1 egg, 10ml Minamino, 5-10ml salmon oil, 2ml caviare flavour, 1g Betaine, 3 drops black pepper oil. Add sieved base mix and either roll as normal or mould around cork balls for pop-ups. If you require a harder hookbait (the sieving will help this) then the boiling times can be increased for these hookbaits by up to twice the normal time, largely due to the elevated levels of attractors. They sound excessive but don't forget, these are hookers only and will not be eaten. You should now have a small batch of highly attractive, slightly hard hookbaits that are carrying the same smells as your free offerings...
