BEST KEPT:
Finished hookbaits will not be shelf-life products. Ensure all baits are dried before either freezing for long term storage, or alternatively, soak in: Cap-Oil, Hemp Oil or L-Zero 30T to give them a shelf-life of around one month.
TIPS:
Use 3 large eggs (roughly 150ml of liquid egg) to make a mix using all 400g of the Hookbait Kit.
Do not exceed 10g of additional powdered additives per 50ml of egg, this can affect the finished hookbait texture.
Use 3 large eggs (roughly 150ml of liquid egg) to make a mix using all 400g of the Hookbait Kit.

STEP 4
Slowly add the mix, mixing as you go, until a tacky dough is achieved. It may be worth using your hands once the mix starts to form a rough ball

Add the hookbaits to boiling water and use our cooking time guideline overleaf; cooking times may vary depending on hookbait sizes

STEP 8
Remove your hookbaits from the pan and set aside on a drying rack or tea towel to dry
RE-HYDRATE YOUR HOOKBAITS
To ensure your hookbaits are packed with pulling power, we recommend adding a light coating of matching Glug or Bait Spray to replace the small amount of scent lost in the cooking process. By using cork-balls to add buoyancy to your hookbaits, you can almost add as much liquid as you like, without affecting their buoyancy. This opens up a whole world of heavy liquids and additives which will ensure your hookbait stands out from your freebies in terms of attraction rather than colour, a perfect, super-effective big carp tactic.
