Go get him, Dylan! The last one ate a Brazil nut, the two biggest ones ate semolina doughballs. All three seemed to be on the outer edge of the shoal of commons.
I have lots of different packbait recipes. Here is one of them. Hot Shrimp Packbait Dry mix (ground): White bread Oatmeal Raw shrimp Peanuts (coarse ground) Nori Sweet corn (whole) Jalapeños Flour tortillas Garlic powder (just a little) Wet mix: Sweetened condensed milk Sriracha Sunflower oil You don’t need all of these ingredients. Just use what you can get. If you just had white bread and sweet corn, you could make packbait. But the more of these ingredients you have, the better. In a bus tub, bucket or mixing bowl, put 1/2 of your dry mix. Then, add wet mix to the dry mix a little at a time, stirring with a fork, until you can make a ball of packbait with your hands that won’t fall apart. Add more dry mix if the packbait becomes too wet or sticky. Add more wet mix if the packbait is too dry. Repeat this process until you have enough packbait for your session. Any leftover dry mix can be used to make boilies, doughbait, pellets or paste. Keep in mind that the dry ingredients will continue to absorb the wet ingredients for several hours. So, if you’re making packbait to be used at a later time, make your batch a little wetter than if you were using it immediately. Packbait will continue to dry out, even in a sealed container. You can always add water at the lake if your packbait has become too dry. When you’re ready to fish, get a handful of packbait and push your feeder into the middle of it. With your other hand, get a handful and pack it on top. Remember, the harder you pack it, the longer it will take to break down. I, personally, only want the packbait to hold together long enough to hit the bottom of the lake. The sooner it breaks down, the quicker and further the scent will disperse into the water. (The oil will carry scent and particles up into the water column).
Good episode thanks
