Content:

• Making Pack = 200g Fluoro yellow Hard Hookbait Mix + 50ml Liquid Bait Preservative

 

Usage Guidelines:

1. Beat up a medium egg 
2. Add chosen liquids /flavours and mix
3. Add your hard hookbait mix, adding a bit at a time until you make a soft, pliable, slightly sticky paste
4. Leave paste in a sealed bag for 30 minutes to absorb liquids before rolling
5. Roll baits as required and allow to ‘skin’
6. Boil or steam baits

 

• We strongly recommend using a Cork Ball Pop Up Roller, for ease, speed and unrivalled hookbait quality.

 

Boiling Guidelines:

• Hard Hookbaits:12mm = 60 secs, 15mm = 90 secs, 18mm = 120 secs
• Cork Ball Pop Ups:12mm = 10 secs, 15mm = 15 secs, 18mm = 20 secs
• Cork Ball Wafters:12mm = 15 secs, 15mm = 20 secs, 18mm = 25 secs
• Leave baits to dry for 12-24 hours, spread out in a dry environment.

 

Buoyant & Semi Buoyant Hard Hookbaits:

• To make cork ball pop ups, mould paste around cork balls typically allowing a paste skin of >1-2mm around the circumference of the cork ball (e.g. 12mm cork ball = 15mm pop up).
• Overcooking cork ball pop ups makes them mis-shape
• Cook at a low temperature for the minimum time
• To make cork ball wafters, mould paste around cork balls typically allowing a paste skin of 2-4mm around the circumference of the cork ball (e.g. 8mm cork ball = 15mm pop up) 
• To make cork dust wafters, add 3-5% cork dust to your powder mix before adding it to the liquid mix
• You will need to trial the amount of cork dust to achieve the desired buoyancy
• The more cork dust you add, the less efficiently your mix will bind

 

Usage Tip:

• When using this mix in our Cork Ball Pop Up Roller, we recommend adding up to 10ml (in total) of an oil or an oil-based flavour per egg before making your paste. 
• Using more than 10ml (in total) of an oil-based liquid per egg may affect the binding/hardening of the mix
• Shelf life hookbaits can be made by replacing 20% liquid egg with the supplied Liquid Bait Preservative
