bait

Anyone used molasses liquid

[Severn Wolf]

I use loads of it in the spring/summer but beware, bream love the stuff.

 

Its long been associated with attracting more commons than mirrors as well though I`ve never found this.

All the time in my groundbait and sometimes soak my boilies in it,make sure you pre-drill them first

I use it quite alot, Mainy for dipping baits in, If you add abit of hot water and give a little time it becomes a runny liquid to add to groundbait

If you are going to buy some dont get it from your tackle shop as it is a rip off.

Find your nearest bulk animal feed supplier.

 

My local one nr Ipswich sells molasses as follows :

 

500ml : GB1.71

4 litres : GB4.50

Anthony, Molasses will melt a pva bag. I used it in the groundbait that was plugging the spod and also coated particles with it, again for spodding.

 

Rudd, spot on mate. I buy mine from an equine retailers (or an `oss shop to any black country lads!) just up the road, I think a 5 litre bottle was about a fiver.

 

Been meaning to try it out on the barbel as well

I like mosasses and prefer blackstrap.

Hard to find where I live now but when possible, I like it made from sorghum cane rather than sugar cane.

I have noticed that on occasion an angler will speak of using molasses when in reality he is using treacle.

 

Can someone say which sort of molasses you mean when you speak of using it to flavor bait?

Anyone used molasses liquid

i buy a big 5 ltr bottle of the stuff from a local farm shop for a few quid... perrrrrrfect

 

oh and i also buy a sack of decent goat feed from the farm shop too. it's got all the ingredients u'd pay big bucks for in a tackle shop.. good for bulking out your mix.
