For you more experienced anglers this is probably something you already know but i though it was worth posting anyway for those who dont.
I was reading an internet article by some top matchman the other day and he gave a descrition on how to prepare bread for breadpunch fishing, i tried it and thought it was so good i should share it with others.
take a slice of bread
cut off the crusts
place in the microwave and blast it for 10 secs
roll it into a sausage shape and cut in half
wrap in cling film
you can then either take it as it is and punch enough for an hour or so's fishing on the bank
Or prepare as above including rolling it into a sausage, punch enough for your session then put in a grip seal bag, this way it dries out a bit but the pellets become really tough and durable
both ways work, and you'll find that the bread punch stays on the hook brilliantly, it even allowed a few missed bites without the fish sucking it of the hook so it avoids having to re-bait the hook every cast
