pre baiting
Anyone ever toyed with the idea of wrapping tigers in paste, so preparing your tigers how ever you usually do then wrapping in paste,Would you
A. Just wrap the paste around your prepared tigers.
B. Wrap your tigers an then blanch them for Minimal just to skin them.

I'm not sure you'd achieve anything doing this? If you wrapped the tiger in paste then the fish aren't attracted to the tiger nut, they are attracted to the paste. Tigers are great with minimal messing around with. Wrapping them in paste detracts from their pulling power. You would be better off making your paste balls and putting them out alongside the tigers.

Wrapping a tiger in paste doesn't really make sense, you may as well just wrap a boilie in paste.

If you want to use tigers in winter, soaking them in betalin might work better,

Due to there shape I'd of thought paste would adhere to tigers quite nice.. give it a go.. why not. There are no hard and fast rules when it come to what will work and what will not. Good luck.

Isn't the whole point of wrapping paste round any bait is to make the area more attractive to the carp,why not wrap it in paste and dunk paste in tiger nut or any nut oil and dip it in powder anything just to nick you an extra bite or too I see this as something different to everyone else.

The thought process behind it is that carp do love tigers and the paste ( also matches my hook baits/pop ups) will break down an hopefully get them used to feeding on my hook bait mix well giving them little something extra that they love being the tigers.

I've always thought of tigers as a very visual, natural looking bait. I wouldn't wrap them in anything to conceal that to be honest, but why not give it a try if that's the way you are thinking.

Perhaps you could stodge up Tigernut sludge with Tigernut meal and eggs to make a paste?
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
