Many of you are asking how to make boilies and want unique new recipes. So here is just one simple and easy to make but nutritionally sophisticated highly attractive bait for autumn winter and even spring and summer! This bait uses the attraction of the major component within pineapple flavour and makes a totally alternative superior pineapple nutty bait option just as good if not better than most so as it is so different; so read on now!

You only need small amounts of this bait to achieve great results and for autumn, winter or spring and even summer I recommend that just a handful of these really potent baits will produce the goods because it is instant acting bait. This recipe and recipes similar in some ways to this can be constantly adapted to stay ahead of fish caution, but you can keep the bait very simple but still very effective indeed!

The basis of this homemade bait is almonds. Almonds have many properties that mean that fish will want to repeatedly eat more of these baits once they smell them and taste them even from a distance away! This is a secret edge of mine so I do not say this lightly, but I do not just recommend you go out and buy bags of almond powder. I recommend that as you only require small amounts of this bait to achieve really good catches then go for the very best option. The best option is to get hold of the freshest highest quality almonds you can source. These will be crunchy, extremely tasty and sweet and very oily and have a very nice crunch when you chomp on them!

Getting the very best freshest almonds you can get can take trial and error and obviously it is best to get samples from different suppliers initially. Wholesalers really do make baits on a budget very easy to achieve and getting accounts with wholesalers in this economic climate is very easy! For small amounts just getting almonds from supermarkets and health food stores etc are obvious options but do aim to approach wholesalers too OK!

All you are doing is putting an amount of almonds into a food processor and liquidizing them. The pulpy course oily material you achieve is really outstanding as the basis of alternative baits. If you wish you might add other nuts including walnuts, pecan nuts, fresh top quality peanuts, tiger nuts, pistachio nuts, pine nuts, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, linseeds and so on.

I have found that the combination of almonds and sesame seeds plus lesser amounts of tiger nuts, walnuts and pecan nuts really is effective. I personally prefer to keep the main thrust of the bait almonds though because I have found that the alkaloids in these are extremely effective and the fresh natural oil of almonds is something that carp really do get turned onto feeding by.

This kind of bait is very good as an alternative to using peanuts, which some fisheries have banned. If you fish a water where particle baits are banned because maybe one ignorant person has applied uncooked nuts to, then this method of exploiting the extremely attractive nutritional and bioactive benefits and advantages of nuts really works; so try it!

When presented with a mush of liquidized nuts, lots of anglers will be at a loss as to know what to do with it to make it into bait. Well the options are simply staggering! For a start you might add glucose syrup, corn steep liquor, betaine and Talin or Thaumatin to really seriously boost palatability and bait solubility which is so important especially in terms of baits for the colder water months. You can also add natural almond extract and this is something I seriously rate; I do not know of any other angler using this today in their baits, but for me it is something I found really effective even as a kid in the seventies so I say why reinvent the wheel when you can use the wheel in new alterative ways!

You can use all kinds of things to exploit your nut mush. The whole point of bait is to disperse to most efficiently pull fish in an excited state to your hook. For this reason I recommend you use paste baits and unheated baits.

If you want to make a summer to autumn bait for example, then you might add additional tiger nut oil, or maybe salmon oil with crushed chilli flakes a soaked in. For winter adding high PC liquid lecithin from CW Baits is really something I would always do after my experiences using it; it is a proven feeding trigger as well as a high energy nutritional emulsifier of oils that improve digestion and over all performance of your bait! For all you guys and girls out there addicted to copying current fashions, simple add a dose of butyric acid to your bait.

Many of you will be new to making baits so maybe what you might do is simply add some eggs to your nut crush mix and then maybe some alternative flavour, intensive taste enhancer and then add some dry powder base mix from your favourite bait company. Dough made from this mixture can be used for paste or boilies and you can make very course more drier mixtures with added shrimps, bread crumbs, crushed hemp and sweetcorn for example, to make spod mixes, or even add cheap ordinary wheat flour to make more sticky binding method mixes.

You can maximize the digestibility of your baits in very many ways, from the use of natural enzymes and ones used in the food industry for specialized purposes, and also you can include various peptides, juices, dry powder extracts and ingredients that have probiotic and prebiotic effects for example. The better digested your baits are all the better as this will make them far more competitive when fished against expensive readymade baits!
