How to make home made pellets using groundbait

- Making your own jelly pellets out of ground bait is probably the ultimate trap for those big not easily fooled fish, make them with any groundbait you like and they blend in perfectly.
Matrix punch kit amzn.to/3JEJRw3 the frenzee one I used in the video is no longer available, the matirx one is great and made of brass too so will last longer

Thanks
No problem
Lovely thanks will be making
You are welcome 😊
What a brilliant idea!!! I did struggle and the first two batches, I had to scrap as the the ground bait I used ( tesco dried cat food ground into groundbait ) was setting to quickly. I settled on a sachet of gelitine and 100 mls of boiling water and 30g of the ground cat food. This allowed it to be right for setting. You do have to work quick though. Right, took My Son and Grandson to the lake yesterday with the jelly pellets. I used a 6mm punch made from and old fishing whip. What I like is, you could punch these out at different sizes to suit the hook within reason. I'm going to make some 8mm and 4mm sizes of punch. Well, the fish loved them, they caught, Roach, Tench, common and mirror carp and Rudd. And the Cray Brothers.I wonder if they would freeze OK ? 5 stars for your video.
Brilliant got try this its so easy to make
Absolutely great ideea. Will try it for sure! Subscribed! 😃👍👍👍👏👏👏
Nice videol mate. I will try this
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Scott - Just made some - Add the Gelatine to the water, not the other way round, it mixes better (Like it says on the Packet) Also will stand a bit more hot water (say 130 ml & still sets the same) I used about 9 heaped teaspoons of Groundbait as well. I'll be using it at Brafferton Next Sunday & let you know.
If you don't get it right 1st time, you can melt it all down again in a sauce pan with a bit of hot water, add some more Gelatine or 3 or 4 cubes of red jelly (I put a bit too much Groundbait in with the first go, but still caught a few Carp on it at Kippax, midweek)
AWSUM
magic
Glad you like it....
Great video and tips, keep it up.
Cheers Ian, plenty more to come..
These are a great custom bait to truly match the hatch, let me know what you think....join our community and get involved facebook.com/yorkshirefishingadventures/
iv'e just watched this vid and it's made me subscribe strait away.. what a good idea... thank you... iv'e just taken fishing back up after a brake of about twenty year's. and been looking for some tip's... this is the best one iv'e seen yet.... so thank you very much.. will try this this weekend coming.... thank's
Hi David, glad I could help and I hope you catch a few, tight lines, Scott
Great idea. I've only considered doing something similar with a boilie type mix and punching it out of a rolled layer (like pastry).
UPDATE. I tried your idea... all good until I saw that the gelatine re-dissolves in seconds of the bait being in the water!
Hi Scott, bet it works with a Strawberry Jelly mixed with just 100 ml, will Deffo' be giving Jelly & the Gel' crystals at try & let you know about the Fruit Jelly.
Great tip.
Glad it was helpful!
@@Scottsalchemy keep um coming mate,great tips, love um.
Can you flavour these mixes. ? Or are there other mixes that you can put boilie flavours and attractors into the mix to aid attraction ? This is a very good way of making flavoured pellets that break down,i know you can buy betwine pellets etc..but was thinking along the flavoured route.Would appreciate any ifeas and tips,thanks.Anthony
You can add pretty much anything you wanted to be fair, just adjust the mix if your adding a liquid etc, you could add powders too and different colours etc to get a unique bait. Scopex is a good one to add.
I have to admit this is one of the best fishing tips I have ever seen, the pellets look better than the shop-bought expanders.
Thank you for a nice informative video. What ingredients would be needed to make these pellets into wafters / semi buoyant pellets? Reason I ask is because I tend to fish a lake with method feeder over silk weed bottom. Tight Lines.
That is a really good question Graham and the honest answer is I'm not too sure, I would ask a good tackle shop for any bollie ingredients that would do the job
@@Scottsalchemy I was thinking along the lines of Egg Albumen for binding the ground bait or in my case ground pellet mix; and to use Polaris for floating ingredient. Trial and error, I suppose!
@@grahampugh9687 get your mad scientist hat on and just experiment with it, tight lines and hope it works
Adding Cork dust might do the trick for you buddy
Maybe Crushed Floating Dog Biscuits could be a good starting point?? I'm thinking weight of the Gelatine might make them Semi Buoyant.
Hi great tip.How long can you keep them.
That is a really good question, I only ever make small batches so I've never tried keeping them but I guess kept in an airtight container in the fridge probably a week or 2.....
@@Scottsalchemy Cheers👍
Have you thought about making like a loaf out of this and putting it through a meat cutter. An old spam tin might be a good mold.
Not until I read this comment.......great idea
Going to try this where can I get the punch from. Thanks
Hi, the Frenzee one that I use isn't available anymore but this one amzn.to/3JEJRw3 from matrix is really good and brass too so should last a lot longer
Do you use dry ground bait or wet groundbait?
I usually add dry ground bait, but I guess wet would work also
How long before it goes off?
Hi Jamie, not sure is my best answer, I tend to make up just small batches as and when needed, but if kept in fridge and air tight I'd say a few days maybe even a couple of weeks.
Make sure you cover them up in the sun, or they melt, did this year's ago
Use Agar agar instead for that reason .
Can you make these in advance and freeze them?
I've never tried to be fair but not sure I would risk it though, the jelly could split when they defrost and they'd be impossible to hook
Can you use 2mm micros
I've never tried to be fair, I can't see an advantage really...
Cheapest groundbait.
1 part chickens layers mash.
1 part white fish meal.
25kg white fishmeal = £50.00
25kg chicken layers mash= £8.00 ( approx)
£1.16 / KILO....
Now in the chicken feed is the following ground down ingredients
Wheat
Barley
Oilseed rape
Maize
Oats
Soya bean meal.
Most of the ingredients that the big companies use.. minus any ground up pellet and biscuit meal.. the white fishmeal is brilliant on its own for paste..
But £1.19/ kilo of a quality g.b no brainer
Sounds good
There is just no Ceiling to this Gelatine Pellet thing - Like Any Food Powders out of the Kitchen Cupboard!!
(Sweet or Savoury) + Crushed Cat Biscuits etc.....
