How to make FREE boilies | Fishing Around

[@raytribble8075]

I have had really good results with Anise oil although strawberry jello works well for both carp and catfish here in the US.

[@alexmanaila3226]

Jeez it works. I think because of the pasta you get the gooey texture when you boil them. Which is great . Thanks man

[@Smiffy830]

Great recipe, but, replace half the flour with corn flour/starch. Flavours I used were marmite garlic powder & Worcestershire sauce. Pineapple & vanilla. I used a syringe from a calpol with the end cut off & sharpened, rolled out the dough to 6mm thick then used the syringe to cut perfect pellets for hookbait. Tench, bream, rudd & roach like them, yet to catch crucian but I'll keep at it. Nice 1 mate.

Hi, great video! I followed your instructions with a few variations and the boilies still managed to turn out great! I already had corn flour and semolina in the cupboard so I used those instead of the corn flakes and pasta. Due to the semolina already being dry, I didn't make a paste with it and the rice as the consistency wouldn't have been right. Instead I just threw the cooked rice in a Ziplock bag with the corner open and used a rolling pin to squish it up. I then turned the bag inside out and scraped the rice into a bowl with all the dry ingredients. Next I added 3 eggs, some minced garlic, a packet of jelly and some fish sauce then mixed it all together. The mix was still sticking to my hands so I added approximately 100 grams of ground up dog biscuits instead of adding more flour. When I rolled the mix into balls I made holes in them using a wooden skewer then boiled them up. After the boilies had finished cooking and had cooled for a few minutes, I ran the skewer through them again to make sure the hole went all the way through. I found it more efficient to fill the whole skewer up then pull them off one at a time. I made a quarter of the boilies half the size and without holes to use as berley. I'm really looking forward to trying them out and hopefully hooking some monster carp.

You can also use a blender to grind the pasta and rice into powder rather than cooking it and add them to your dry mix but it has to be able to turn it into powder and not just smaller chunks of itself. Your flavours would be better mixed into your eggs, as would liquid colourings, so it spreads across the entire paste. 4 eggs, 2 for teriberry, 2 for raspberry lemon and weigh and split your base mix into 2 parts then add teriberry eggs to one mix and raspberry lemon to the other. I do this and create 3 boilie flavours, the 2 separate ones then a combination of the 2 pastes side by side in a gun gets you a two toned flavour boilie, a teriberry lemon flavour.

[@braxtonellison1349]

Yes sir I'm a grinder freak a boilie ain't a boilies if your not grinding up stuff 👍✅

[@danbonk1]

Great video, I will be giving this ago for sure. If you put a damp cloth/ tea towel under your chopping board, it will stop it sliding around on you.

[@graemebarber2248]

Oh my word mate, you've made this far more hard work than it needs to be. Mix ALL of you DRY and ALL of your WET then mix to the desired consistency. Please for the love of a bend in your rod, no need for all that flour, It becomes harder and harder to work with.

[@akwamarsunzal]

Well, my first attempt at these resulted in a good fishing session yesterday. Made one batch, split into two colours/flavours. For some reason one of the colours is floating! They do sink once waterlogged but was a bit annoying! The other colour sinks as it should LOL Same mix, different colour, different flavour.

[@DadOnTheBank]

Thanks for the Video! I’ll try this one! 👍

[@66bigbuds]

I found some cheese essence at a trappers supply house on line. It goes well with the garlic.

[@akwamarsunzal]

Fantastic video! Thank you! Will definitely be trying this out 🙂

[@leesagar8651]

My flavour over winter have been marine based, krill, octopus, squid etc with pure honey as a sweetener or even as a dip

[@Offcut55]

I made some yellow and red with the same flavours but the red did not get a sniff at all but the yellow did. It can depend so much on venue and mood of the fish?

[@1313Malaki]

A great video. I am new to fishing altogether but am a great learner. I made one batch split it into two bits. Both have juniper berries in. Then split and one had strawberry and hot chillie in it. The other Hoi Sin sauce and tomato and garlic. Both smell strong. What do you think? I cannot wait to try them out next week.

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hello and thanks for watching the video. Both those flavours sound fantastic, I love the idea of adding hoisin! Come back and let us know what you caught with them

[@harrison9281]

How did you get on fishing these? :)

[@KG-jp6rx]

flavor ground black pepper cayenne pepper curry powder

[@sepidarstone-wm5mu]

very good

[@benprice3719]

Crush up some fresh picked blackberries for another mix. Nice and sweet with deep colour.

[@richardbell7769]

Top stuff. Going to make a batch of red chocolate malt boilies to this recipie at the weekend. Hopefully will save me a lot of money! Why not put kilos in? I'm away next year for a week and would normally use 10ish kilos over the week. Would there be any reason not to use this recipie in that scenario?

[@FishingAroundUK]

Thanks for your comment, and for watching the video. It’s a great recipe and I’m sure it will save you a load of cash - come back and let us know how the red chocolate malt boilies go! The disclaimer about not chucking kilos in is mainly for my benefit; I cannot be sure that this recipe represents a complete nutritional long term food source for the fish, and so I would urge people to use their own best judgement and consider their own use case if they are thinking about producing these in volume because I cannot absolutely guarantee the nutrition levels and at the end of the day we want the best care possible for these fish.10 kilos is a lot of bait, but like you said, it is spread out over a week, and we don’t know how many fish will be feeding on it, hopefully a lot! So you might be alright. As a footnote there is a simple change to the recipe you can make, that I didn’t cover in the video as it isn’t particularly ‘free’, but that would make the recipe even better, both for you and the fish! If you have a spare packet of groundbait lying around, perhaps something krill-based but I’m sure any good quality mix would do, simply substitute in place of the 200 grams of plain white flour. As long as you keep the consistency the same as shown in the video, you get a load more attraction and nutritional content for the fish.

[@ecselGaming]

Thanks for sharing, I'm going to give this a go for sure! Combining an idea from your last bait making video I'm going to try Maryland cookies with Valencian orange extract for sort of a Terry's chocolate orange / cookie type flavour 😁👍

[@mikija7028]

Hey Nice vid but I had a question what should I do if I want pop ups but I don’t have a microwave I have just an oven?😕

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hi there, thanks for watching :) I don’t recommend using an oven - it makes the outer skin crunchy but locks moisture in the centre, and you won’t get the same pop up effect. Instead of making microwave pop ups, just dry the boilies as shown in the video and then when they are ready for use, take the ones you want to use as pop ups, drill holes in them and insert some cork. You can get cork dowels for this purpose from your local tackle shop, but I find the microwave method easier personally. The cork dowel method works for other types of bait as well like tiger nuts, which is a plus!

[@graemebarber2248]

Search a video for "floater cake", if I remember correctly it's basically double the normal eggs for the mix and cook in the oven. Tight lines mate.

[@225kk]

Thank you so much

[@AdamVest]

My no.1 successful recipe is shredded wheat biscuits, unleavened flour, canned corn, 3 eggs and packets of strawberry jello. I get a fish every other throw.

[@pakalnius]

Can you use just the jelo for flavering

[@FishingAroundUK]

@@pakalnius Hi there, thanks for watching :) yes that will work

[@johnnewton3335]

im not a fisherman but i have a glut of almond meal left over from making milk, ive dehydrated it and can mill it into a fine flour, it has a little cinnamon in it, can i use this for making boilies in any way ? thanks, john

[@Ant0n_42]

Tbh anything you can roll and cook into a ball should work with enough stench

[@tayfurgungor3954]

You can write down the list of the ingredients you put in it, sir. (I don't have a Turkish translation on my phone) What should I do to prevent mold? Thank you.

[@Fabian-ts6rk]

Can you use something else for the corn flakes

[@darrenellingham425]

I just made the "TeriBerry" ones they are drying out as I type this I used all the same ingredients but blended the life out of it all first so I could use dry mix the only thing I done different was I added some Nyjer seeds then used a small amount of plain flour on my rolling board for the sausage rolling then rolled the boilies with a cheap small rolling table put them on the boil gave them the normal amount of time to do their thing then put them out to dry but noticed on a couple of them they had the flour still stuck to them made them look odd but still for the price of the ingredients I ended up doing two lots with all the ingredients I had made so I made a different lot with my own flavours and then made these with your flavours and you are right different ingredients make life difficult but I've ended up with a kilo of 2 different flavoured baits for about 5 quid and still have left over ingredients because it's all straight out of the kitchen cupboard and what wasn't in the cupboard is now so I'm fairly happy with that but I have to say these "TeriBerry" boilies smell very suspiciously like boilies I used to buy from a tackle shop I knew many many years ago let's just hope they work as well anyway fantastic video I'm glad I come across it when I did because I'll be using my boilies at the weekend first time I've ever made my own boilies so fingers crossed.

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hiya Darren, thanks for watching :) good luck at the weekend!

[@Dadog-oq5tw]

chilly powder go's well

[@666docker]

Nice. Best use seasalt instead of regular salt.

[@xman1976a]

Why is that please?

[@FreddysHamster]

Yes. Because that table salt is virtually poison, for us also.

[@Terry-hb6wc]

Table salt is not salt it's a chemical derivative. As above not good for anyone

[@robharrison2232]

Great idea but what a mess everywere😂

[@pauliusjankauskas8897]

my pop ups aren't floating.What can i do

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hello there, thanks for watching :) The base mix does float reliably, so one of two things has happened; you’ve either A./ not microwaved them long enough as shown in the video or much more likely B./ whatever you have added to the base mix as flavouring is causing the boilie to sink. Some ingredients work better than others, and it’s a bit of trial and error with what you want to use

[@AaronCarpAngler-UK]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@RomanC23]

My question is, this boiles catch fish?

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hi there, thanks for watching! Yes, this boilie recipe is great, check out the video where I use them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpOWhWNvg8ySotU

[@martingoesfishing5762]

It’s not free however it’s a viable option and something I will be giving a go

[@Chisoceanu]

i better buy it

[@brianjones2860]

sorry mate music doing my head in good video

[@pas112472]

Maybe add rice flour and wheat flour instead of having to boil rice and pasta.

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hi there, thanks for watching. Yes, absolutely, if you already have those in your cupboard at home. A very popular basic base mix recipe consists of flour, rice flour, maize flour and semolina, and what I’m showing you how to do in this video is reverse-engineer an approximation of that same base mix, by purely using stuff you probably have in your cupboards already, without having to buy any special ingredients :)

[@krispaterson8828]

Not free - unless you nick all the ingredients 🤣

[@john8058]

or rob them off your mum and dad

[@marppp28]

At least 20£ ingredients and labour = satisfaction of catching fish and divorce when wife see all that mess 😁

[@neilcrookphotos]

It's free as his wife does the shopping 😅

[@botanicfish6523]

I dont even do this much for a meal for myself

[@justintanner7020]

Teriyaki?? Really?? Do you catch carp with those??

[@FishingAroundUK]

Hi Justin, thanks for watching! Yes, the “Teri-Berry” teriyaki strawberry flavour is great, the carp love it. I go on to use these in another of my videos, where you can see they definitely catch carp, check it out; kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpOWhWNvg8ySotU

[@thomascornell9203]

WOW YOU USED A LOT OF FLOUR 😳😳😳😳

[@steveneveritt4871]

Please tell me what supermarket / shop gives you all those ingredients free of charge? Free my arse!

[@EricPollarrd]

Cripes this is a lot of hullabaloo to make a boilie 😩 simple 50/50 semolina and one of a million flours is a lot easier

[@peterp4223]

It's not really free you still have to pay for all that stuff as part of your food shopping bill but would be very cheap if using Aldi or Lidl

[@petrvesely9936]

Ahóój. Omlouvám se. Ale nejdříve se smíchají všechny tekuté ingredience, barva, aroma, vejce, olej je třeba to dobře rozšlehat a po té se dělá těsto. 👍🇨🇿

[@carpfishingjuradobonilla5521]

Ni pajolera idea de hacer un boilie

[@FreddysHamster]

Nothing going on but thanks anyway.

[@rufanuf1]

Great clickbait.🤣

[@peasyshorts6671]

Free???😂😂😂

[@O.3219]

[@doerakandnozem3360]
