I've been catching a few bream on them, no tench though so it might work! I think it all depends on the feeding situation you create tbh.

Just as an update, brazils in a glass jar and acacia honey have lasted a long while now and no crystallisation. Seems to have worked well. messy when tying up hookbaits though!

Some great advice in this thread. Whoever said about using them fresh, I totally agree. The oil in them goes rancid pretty quick, you can smell it. I've never boiled, use same as everyone else really. The horn trimmed up with a sliver of cork (check buoyancy as varies from nut to nut) then a tiny mesh bag of shavings on the hook. Dangerous single hookbait
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
