Paste - the ultimate margin bait!

[catman]

If ya bein serious then luncheon meat is good. Anything stinky really to attract 'em. They aint got much meat on 'em but they taste bloody good if ya get enough of the little menaces.

 

[Malc Bason]

How would you best cook them, and do you thing hemp might be a good attractor around the meat?

 

[Cakey]

do you hair rig the meat catman ?

 

[catman]

Na no need. You will be hard pushed to 'hook' them. They will just hold on to the bait as you lift them out.
I just boil 'em in salt water mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Catman, have you tried and experimented with various pastes, their ingredients, solubility, longevity etc?

I've performed some extensive, research and experimentation and would welcome the exchange of ideas from the testing that you've obviously performed before your declaration on here.

Thanks

 

[catman]

Yes Big Rik. Ihave found that a good base has crumbed fresh bread, egg, butter, oil, powder dye, betaine, salt, pepper. Then add flavours and other oils. Then put in the microwave on high for 30 secs. Knead well and chill. This will last nicely for two hours on the hook. Do a tank test beforehand ovcourse.

 

[Big Rik]

isn't that the recipe for bread pudding? Just add some sultanas...


Do you change you base at all, or is it just based around bread and flavour?

 

[catman]

Occasionally add a bit of 50/50 boilie mix to help bind it.

 

[Cakey]

bread and butter pudding now

 

[Malc Bason]

What would constitute your "50/50 boilie mix" catman?

 

[catman]

Just Nash 50/50 dry base mix. It has great binding properties and has its own unique flavour which i believe helps.

 

[Frothey]

"has its own unique flavour"

special soya and semo then....

 

[catman]

Nah. Any old soya and semo has the same smell. You cannot deny that it smell different.
