elmoputney Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Do you guys still include tigers at this time of year ? I haven't been out for a while will be using crushed boilies and pellet would you still include crushed tigers? Or not? I have some I can prepare for Saturday and not sure whether I should?

yonny Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 There is no reason you couldn't use tigers throughout the winter mate. Pete Springate's Guns and elmoputney 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thanks I've been adding them to my mix for a little while and it just seemed a little bare without them, I haven't even seen the lake since September, so no prebaiting done or no plans made just going to have to try and find them and hope for the best yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welder Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 I have to agree with Yonny. I don't think that carp change their diets during the colder months, they just feed less often. IMHO If Tigers are what they're used to then just carry on using them. Ian. yonny and elmoputney 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Ian I think they have just become part of my mix really, originally it was designed to all be catapultable, 17mm pellets, tigers and boilies just for ease of prebaiting, then with the ridgemonkey crusher I just crush some up and mix it add some liquids to make it go even further (but I did find the rudd would destroy that in minutes that's why I added the tigers because I thought they might leave those 🤔) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greekskii Posted November 11, 2021 Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 Defo include tigers, maybe cut the pellet out due to higher oil content, or reduce the amount of pellet. I'm down to boilie and tigers only now for the winter. welder and elmoputney 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I just want to have a pellet clear out lol ,I'm down to the last bucket now, I'm hoping the water isn't too cold yet,but then I can start fresh next year, will probably mainly just try and apres bait with them anyway won't hurt to leave something out there for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't hurt I might start adding some corn too, just for a bit of colour and that Do you guys use tinned or frozen? I heard that if you use frozen it isn't fully cooked so you need to cook a it a bit? You may all know that but I hadn't paid it any attention before 😁😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B B Posted November 12, 2021 Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 I get the cheap tinned corn from Tesco. Works out the same price as frozen. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
