Hi wanted to order one of these online after watching Alfie Willingale use one in a surface fishing video, but now notice they do a 5mm and a 7mm.

Need it to bore a hole in a boilie so the nash bait screw sits in it. Anyone know what size I need for the standard nash bait screw?

watch at 20.21 in this video to see what I'm talking about. Thanks

You shouldn't need any kind of tool to bore out a boilie for the bait screw to fit, they just screw directly into the bait

I did say watch the video to see what I was talking about. You missed the point entirely.

I'll have to wait for the screws to arrive, measure them and then order the correct size tool. Just wondered if anyone had done it and could speed the process up for me

And there was me thinking 5mm as otherwise that foams huge
Foam looks about 10mm to me, could be wrong, probably am.

Well my zig screws turned up so I was able to measure the collar on them. Its 4mm so the 5mm corer tool was the one he was using.

Actually found a 5mm drill bit did the job just as easilly so saved me spending a fiver there

I was going to mention a drill bit but thought it wouldn't have enough kudos
The Guru punch sets are well worth a look if you consider corers for the future. I've just ordered a snowman corer from Temu, who says you can't teach a old dog new tricks!
Are you sure?
