Do you make much bait? I had a crack last winter, only small 2kg mixes, but done quite well. Quote Link to post
Flipper_Al 1,012 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Not any more, used to make a lot in the mid to late 's...but theres so many good baits out there at aound £6 a kilo, i dont bother Cracking common...btw where from, pm if prefered Edited March 18, 2012 by Flipper_Al Quote Link to post
jocky 198 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 looking to make about 20kg at a time, got the gardner rolling table, and got the compressor and gun. just need to try and make them quicker and easyer Quote Link to post
Flipper_Al 1,012 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) If you were looking to produce 20kg, that you will use over months, then fine stick with what you have...."i know its a pain " But if your going to produce 20kg a day, that you then sell on.... then you will need to invest in better kit Its a big investment, for just personal use, or you put a mix together and get someone else roll it for you Hope this helps Edited March 18, 2012 by Flipper_Al Quote Link to post
jocky 198 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 thanks flipper, think i will sick to the gardner tables, unless i can pick one up cheap... i dont fish much now, but my 19 year old son is into is carp fishing alot now. Quote Link to post
Flipper_Al 1,012 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 You have about the best home use kit for the amount your producing... how you boiling them, an electric 20L Burco may help you Quote Link to post
jocky 198 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 just got a twin 17 liter deep fat fryer with baskets in, so hope it does the job ok. Quote Link to post
Flipper_Al 1,012 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 That will be fine, just dont add too many baits at a time Quote Link to post
WILF 47,662 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 You can buy bait so cheap now that it's almost not worth doing, time would be better spent walking the banks of the lake and observing IMHO .......you need to roll so much to use it properly. A couple of kilos is ok for a short session, but I don't consider 4 lbs of bait a lot for 24 hours or less. You get carp switched on and feeding and you will sail through 4lb in a couple of hours. I reckon your time would be better spent elsewhere matey Quote Link to post
