What would you put in your korda kontainer?

[elmoputney]

Right 4 sections 1 bucket for a session, what goes in your bucket? 

Mine 

Boilies 

Matching pellets or pellet mix 

Chops and crumb (cold) or more boilies 

Sweetcorn/maize/tigers 

[kevtaylor]

depends could have a few of these lol

One could be splitting 3 sizes of pellet and something else for catapulting baits out.  Could have another splitting particles up in the same way.

I could replace 4 buckets on the barrow with one of these and top it up as needed - will be buying 👍

Yeah it's a good idea, I still think there will be the odd occasion for a big bucket of particles. But for a quick session you can still make a decent fresh mix and not need loads of buckets.

Sometimes I literally have 4 - 6 buckets with me, some with barely anything in, these make sense

[jules007]

I do a similar thing but just using 2.5 kg bait bucket i put maybe 1kg of boilie in bottom and have some small plastic tubs with maybe a different boilie in one and pellets in another

[salokcinnodrog]

I have a 5l bucket with pellets and bag mix in, tubs of pop-ups and my pva bags and mesh live on top of them as I need.

Another 5litre bucket of boilies for feeding and baiting up at the end of a session.

Yeah I've wanted one for ages, it's going to be good to have options whilst lightening the load.

Guys thanks for replying, I think you are kind of missing the point of this question a little bit, I don't want to know what you actually do. But what you would do with the 4 sections of the kontainer. What would you take in those 4 sections to make essentially your chosen bait mix.

Really tricky for me to answer as I chop and change when I feel certain baits are more/less effective at different times of year. I rarely use 4 ingredients in a mix tbh. In Spring I'd normally be using a pot of black foam or pop ups. Maybe a kilo of of boilies just in case. Post spawning I'd be boilie fishing. Soon as the weed starts dying I'd be playing with naturals.

All water dependant of course.... I'll be on the tigers if bird life or nuisance species are an issue.

I can't remember the last time I took 4 ingredients tbh.

[kevtaylor]

I can see me using one of these for boilies in the 3 forms: whole, chop and crumb.

Maybe another for pellets in different sizes.

Particle is usually mixed, yet I'll maybe keep the tigers separate.

Hookbaits, I've got a 6 tub container in my rucksack for match the hatch and a ridgemonkey bucket for alternative hookbaits and liquids so that always comes along.

I honestly don't think that the container would fit in my fishing simply because of my fishing at the moment. A bucket of particles or particle/pellet mix, another bucket of boilies, then the bag mix bucket which covers multiple sessions. 

I frequently take a sack of pellets and Vitalin/Vitacarp and keep it in the car to top up every day. I also usually have a few tins of sweetcorn in there as well.

It might work if I did single overnight trips, in fact it might be an idea for my occasional chub/barbel trips to make bait carrying easier as I frequently end up with multiple ice cream containers containing luncheon meat, hemp, pellets and boilies.

I suppose you could use the bucket and innards for the daily bait up?

Thanks guys. 

nick, I'm not trying to make you buy one don't worry 😉

this is a hypothetical question,I'm just interested in what people would take if they had 4 kontainer sections, so which four bait options would you take to make the best spod mix you would take anywhere? 

You can also carry hookbaits, bag mixes, liquids etc so you don't need to worry about those 

Eg

Boilies 

Chops 

Pellets

Garlic Maize 

Would be something I could take anywhere confidently.

Any chance you could show us a pic with the inner items on show ?….pretty please.

I had a look online at the Korda PVA bucket looks a great bit of kit ….  but the price frightened me…£40 ish

Believe me I'm forever trying to figure out a way to split a bucket into sections

I’ll speak to someone at all things 3d and ask them To do something lol

that could fly of the shelf if it could fit a bucket already owned.

i just currently put smaller bait boxes in a bigger bucket.

Each section is 3ltr or bigger than a trade can of WD40 in real world terms, I estimate there is over 2kg of 12mm boilies in that one.

Would be quite easy to do really just base it on a cardboard box divider,

Finally filled them all up 👍

That's a kilo of corn would probably take 2 kilos I think 

[jh92]

This might sound daft but what is the purpose of having them separated? Like if you take it to the lake, do you not mix it up and bait up with it anyway? 

Sort of reminds me of the match boys with the different tubs of worms, casters, maggots etc lol

The main point for me is i don't have to commit to a whole bucket at once and waste bait, and I can mix as much as I plan to put out, also the pellets would just turn to mush and it would end up a soggy mess, also it means to keep it all fresh I only need one bucket rather than 3 or 4. Good tip for carrying less on your barrow 😉

Makes sense never thought of it like that lol 👍

I Kwould Kontane it in a Kbin

 

 

 

Just messing I'm not a fan of Korda

 

I just use fantastic clip lock type heavy duty tupperwares for my bait

they were a great investment I have loads of them - and the best way to contain frozen food since forever

you have to look after them, get the rubbers out of the lids sometimes and don't let moisture build up under the rubbers

and store them airing out, never with lids clipped on

they must always be washed before use as they are coated with antibac for pre-sale storage

to be fair the 'K'ontainers look quite neat, but so is my NGT zip up canvas insulated bait bag full of small tupperwares and tubs

I do mix my dry Vitacarp with my pellets beforehand, keeping my PVA pellets separate. 

I have a lovely collection of catering buckets, which originally held Knorr gravy granules, and a Hutchy bucket for my PVA stuff which also gets my hookbaits put in there.

If I need 500grams or so of high attract boilies from the freezer, or some luncheon meat, I do have plenty of 900ml ice cream tubs, (my own indulgence). I've also got a few maggot tubs. 

Yes I do keep my casters and maggots separate. I don't mix maggots until on the bank as I often find a particular colour works best.

[Barney2]

Depends how you fish, I don't do spods or particles I prefer a variety of (catapult only) small amounts of boilies, fine pellets etc

They shouldn't be mixed as they have different glugs on and I don't want them all to smell the same in case something isn't working - I also wouldn't want pellets drawing the moisture out of thawing boilies and getting soggy

I keep everything neat and compact, some people are funny like that I hate bulk, slow setup, clutter and confusion and never rated heavy baiting anyway (especially on tough to rock hard venues)
