How Do You Make Your Own Fishing Bait?
January 30, 2007 | Leave a Comment
There are many recipes that you can take full advantage of to help you to score the big fish. Why not make the bait at home on your own? Here are just a couple of the options that you have in fish bait recipes.
Salmon Eggs: How To Cure Them
There are several fish that this will work well for. If you are after largemouth bass, salmon, lake trout or muskellunge, you’ll love to use these because they will give you good results. Here’s a step by step to help you.
- When cleaning your salmon, keep the egg sacs intact.
- Cover a large flat surface that you can easily move with borax.
- Cut the egg sacs across the membrane about three to four inches and lay them at least one inch apart on the borax.
- Sprinkle more borax on top and make sure they are all covered.
- Move them to an area with good circulation that is also sheltered. You do not want them in any sunlight or in any way getting wet.
- Allow them to dry for two or three days and turn them about every twelve hours.
- Shake off the excess borax and place them in plastic bags for storage. You can use them when they are completely dry.
Or How About Some Cheese Bait?
You can use this type of homemade bait to catch carp, chub, bream and catfish. Here’s what you need to do.
- Roll out about ten ounces of pie pastry on your counter top.
- Use mature cheddar flavor cheese to smear on the pastry.
- Add six ounces of grated cheddar cheese and four ounces of blue cheese crumbles that are finely ground.
- Fold that pastry over so that it is completely covering the cheese. Then, roll it out again.
- Do this several times until the pastry and the cheese are completely combined.
- Form into a large ball and knead it.
- Place some cheddar cheese bits into the bottom of a plastic bag then place the cheese ball into it as well. Freeze it.
- Once thawed the consistency is perfect and it will have a good cheese smell to it. Roll it into small balls and store in an air tight container. You can then use them next time you head out.
Who said you couldn’t make your own great baits for your favorite catch? This is a great way to get some of the best baits for next to nothing as well. Go ahead and give it a try. You would be surprised how well these work.

Used Fishing Boats
January 30, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Do you want to sell your used fishing boat? Then there are some important things to consider in order to attract potential buyers. First, you need to be aware of the competition. Remember that you will not only compete with other persons selling their used fishing boat but also with those who are selling new fishing boats.
To draw possible buyers, make sure that your used fishing boat is competitively priced. You can make its price a bit higher if it has more important features that other used fishing boats don’t have. And you can make it even more expensive if it possesses add-ons that can’t be found in new fishing boats.
You also need to advertise your used fishing boat properly and make communication simple and hassle-free. If you are going to sell your used fishing boat, be sure that you can be contacted for inquiry. You can have an answering machine or ask for a voice mail box from your phone company. Today, emails are the easiest and most popular way to contact a seller. Make sure to have one and check it daily.
The used fishing boat that you are selling should not be overpriced. Before pricing your boat, conduct research first to know the real value of your used fishing boat. If you don’t want to peg your boat’s cost between a low retail cost and average price, then don’t expect to get a positive response from buyers.
Bear in mind that clean boats can attract buyers. And even used fishing boats can be very nice if they are clean. So before selling your used fishing boat, clean it regularly. Make sure it is in tip-top shape when a potential buyer comes to inspect it.
To avoid headaches and other troubles, carry out or refer to a survey first before dealing your used fishing boat. Through a survey, you’ll know if the used fishing boat you are going to sell is in good condition. It will also let you know the things that need to be repaired. Majority of the banks ask for a survey before financing used fishing boats. If you conduct a survey before dealing your used fishing boat, you can surely be confident in the costing of your boat. Most importantly, know the best possible offer you can give for your used fishing boat.
