We are
always being asked how to make hard hook baits to deal with crayfish, nuisance
fish etc. Below is a detailed guide to over come this problem using Carp
Company's Jaw Breaker.
HOOKERS ( Hard Hook Baits)
Put 450gms of your chosen Base Mix
in a large plastic bag, add 28grms of Jaw Breaker . This is enough mix to do
about 5x1 egg mixes.
Seal bag by twisting top leaving
plenty of air inside. Shake vigorously until the powders have mixed together.
This Mix will be very sticky &
also has a tendency to dry very quickly so make sure you have all your rolling
equipment at the ready.
This recipe
is for 1 egg.
Crack egg in bowl add 3 to 5 ml of
your flavour.
Add Base mix slowly, bit by bit ,
this is the messy part get your hands in there & knead it until you get the
right consistency. Be careful not to make it to dry or it will not roll it will
end up cracking & falling apart.
When you have successfully made it
into the dough, roll the size baits you want & boil for :
16+18mm 3 mins 20+22mm 4 mins. Lay
out & leave to dry for at least 24 hours. Then freeze as usual, or put
in a bait soak this will make them like concrete so put a hole through them
first.
