Re-hydrating and boiling bait and sacking carp.
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008
Morning Shaun.
Not really sure if I must pose my questions to the emails. But anyway sure you will tell me.
Here is my question:
Went out yesterday to a day ticket water. Baited the spot on Saturday evening with about 4 kilo’s of maize.
Had 11 takes yesterday up to 22 pounds. Not big but great fun. My problem is that I am trying homemade boilies too, basically air dried boilies as per your articles. Soaking them for 12 hours but yesterday when I went out time and time again the rig comes out with the boilie no where to be seen.
I was fishing with some of the first batches that I made and i know in the beginning I was scared to boil them for too long, basically just boiling them for a minute.
The new batches I boil until they start rising 2 - 3 minutes. Could this be the problem
Got hemp in them too, way too much I think as they tend to break up quit badly when I try to put them on the Hair - rig.
Another question I want to buy a carp sack as I get fish early in the morning with no one to take photo’s for me.
How long is safe to sack a carp.
Thanks a lot.
PS. Saw a movie friday of you in France. Excellent.
