chicken pellet burley

Post by jacob.s » Mon Aug 04, 2014 2:21 pm

Hi all, just a quick one

Do chicken pellets break down quicker that tuna pellets? Im looking for something to mix with tuna oil and leave in a burley bucket that will break down and spread about but the tuna pellets seem too hard and dont break down easily.

thanks

Short answer Yes.
They will break down after about 15 mins or so into a fine texture

Soak chicken pellets in small amount of water first, they break down quickly, then mix in tuna oil.quick and easy.

Boiling water breaks them down within a couple of minutes.

I usually just tip boiling water into my burley bucket at home then add tuna oil and extra water once I get to my spot

you know what? I've seen so many people recommend aniseed essence, but I can't seem to find the product anywhere in melbourne.
I know coles used to sell it but I've heard that its been banned because some kids used it to get high?? :rofl:

anyone know where I can get some on the cheap? or is ebay my only option?

Raspberry jelly crystals also is another additive thats worth adding to the pellet mix, it was widely used for corse fishing berley mix for Bream, Roach fishing etc.

I just used fennel seeds or half a star anise and grind it up. It's really cheap from an Indian grocer.
