Been doing this for years. I use those gelato containers as well. 😂😂 I make several jars. I even freeze my tuna balls. I add scents on the river if needed. And l use tuna in water as well. Drain the water.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try this because roe can get expensive. What's the red liquid in the Talenti container? You run these under a float like you normally would with eggs?
You’re welcome. It’s pautzke nectar. It’s pretty handy to have around for bait fishing salmon (eggs, tuna balls and coon stripe shrimp). It’s from the egg curing process at the pautzke factory. Yeah, I will make little smaller ones and run them with my eggs too. I’ll run them by themselves too. I’ve also drifted and back bounced them for spring chinook. I’ve even plunked with them, work great.
I really don’t throw these for coho. Coho are so easy to catch on hardware and I generally have a bunch of eggs cured up; so it’s not really been worth it. IF I was going to do something like this for coho, I’d use squid. Coho LOVE squid.
@@felixandamanda yeah. I’m not really big into bait for steelhead. I’m not against it, I just don’t do more than usually tip my jig with a small chunk of shrimp.
You’re joking right? Store bought roe is junk. Tuna balls will out fish any store bought eggs and these ones, a lot of home cures…especially on the Washington coast.
It’s only ridiculous if you are ignorant enough to not understand that Walmart cured bait in a jar is quite possibly the shittiest bait known to mankind. You will find yourself watching while everyone else with a clue is catching. I am amazed that you would even post such a statement
Great tutorial thank you!👌

Love your recipe! I always put a tiny piece of roe and one or two puffballs for flotation.

I take my extra eggs at the end of the week and add it to the sac
Pro-tip separate oil and save it to add to baits later. The tuna absorbs scents/chemicals much better after oil is removed.
Nice! Thank you!
How long will that stay good if u refrigerator it after ur done fishing
you had me at balls.
I catch a lot of hens on them.

Giving out all the secrets 🤫
Only the ones about my balls.
Let's go plunking
Do you make any different for coho ? Or same recipe

@@TheOutdoorNerd365 Thank you for the tip, I just love bobber fishing that’s pretty much only thing that I do now days so appreciate your tip
Do you mean you would replace the tuna with squid or you would add squid scent to the tuna?
How long does that last in the fridge?
A week or so.
Ilthiscrecipe mainly for salmon right? Not steelhead?

Im sure if i just put everything thats ever caught a fish in a blender , something will bite eventually
Yep. You’re right. I’m just throwing things at a wall to see if they stick, I don’t have a lifetime of catching chinook experience to lean on. 🙄
Roe is $4 a jar at Wally's world guys. Buy yourself 3 jars a year and you're set, this is ridiculous.
