This simple basic recipe works well in rivers or lakes and is simple and easy to make. It is easy to add more or less flavor. I like strawberry or almost any fruit flavor, the flavors can be Koolaide, cake flavors or even specially made European style carp bait flavors.
- Equal parts corn meal, flour
- Enough eggs to make it into a dough
- Any bait flavor including Koolaide, cake flavors or carp bait flavors, just enough to be able to smell it in the dough
- maple syrup
- A few drops of food coloring
- 1/4 tablespoon of vegetable oil for each egg
Mix eggs, flavor, sweeter and food coloring. Add premixed flour to make a stiff dough. Let sit for 10 - 15 minutes. Roll into sausages and roll into balls or flatten to about 1/2 inch thick and cut into cubes. Boil for about 1 - 2 minutes depending on how big the balls are, about 2 minutes for 20 mm boilies, less for smaller ones. Remember to write down everything in your recipe!! If you catch a BFC you will want to be able to recreate your bait again!!
This is very fun to make and easy to use. E-mail me if this works for you two at
