Cod Fishing Baits Video - Crab And Squid Wrap

How to bait up with a crab and squid wrap. BFM editor, Dave Barham, explains the benefits of using a crab and squid wrap bait for cod fishing. You can use this one from the shore as well as the boat, and it casts like a dream!

Absolutely, Ben. You can make loads up, wrap them individually in cling film and freeze them.

[@simon5626]

Excellent presentation, thanks

[@elemenohpeespngrCortese]

this is a great idea. never seen anything like this before. Im going to definitely try this tomorrow when I go fishing. thanks alot man.

[@BigDaveB39]

No worries, Steve. It's a killer bass bait too.

[@nigelmilne3503]

i made a bait holder, slightly curved metal or plastic about 20mm accross.You can make up big baits with elastic then slide the holder out and leave a streamlined bait.

Nice, I will try that technique with Squid and Clam, Here on the Eastern coast of USA.

[@hannsolo1387]

May I ask how long will that stay fresh for, or do you freeze that as is? as i think this a great idea but think it would take me hours to set up at least 20 of those. Wanting to mainly know if freezing this would be ok. Maybe put in a ice slurry? Cheers mate :}

[@DaveBarhamFishing]

Good idea. I have a bad track record with bait needles though. :-)

hi dave love your vids. Are ammo the best supplier of frozen peelers. I bought some last year ( not ammo)snd they were rubbish. took them out of the packet and they were just frozen water. Like slush puppies. Wouldnt stay on hook even with elastic

[@BigDaveB39]

jayswin2 I usually use Ammo or Baits R Us frozen bait. I've never had a problem with either of them.

[@stevenwatt2010]

i put the crab on a baiting needle first the wrap the squid around its alot easier

[@daveashton9486]

Can you please let me know we're about you got your grabs from

[@onyx5575]

Could you do all this .. elastic and then freeze? Can't see me having time to do this on a session.

[@danielmccarthy1088]

Your best of peeling the crab and then freezing until you need it cos you don’t wana be peeling them with freezing cold fingers in winter

[@brianporteous8065]

Hi Dave. I would like to try this with Cart. Can the Squid be defrosted and Re-frozen ? Cheers mate and a gr8 tutorial. ! Tight Lines.

[@DaveBarhamFishing]

+Brian Porteous Hi Brian, Its a similar thing - however Cart will probably come in Blocks, you can wrap the squid around it after removing the covering for the Cart, and then use the bait elastic as shown there, I have refrozen squid before but only whan I cannot get hold of fresh, however a lot of the juices would be lost.

[@Noname-qk9or]

I would imagine that this would also be an absolutely deadly smoothhound bait in the summer too yeah Dave?

[@Nonsmedssee]

You forget fish sauce on it m8 ,

[@Retwak]

[@KinGIIRomE]
