| Re: What should i be useing in my spod ? Particles . boilies chopped and whole, tuna , sweet corn, worms ,maggots pellets the list is endless This is how i prepare my particles PREPARING PARTICLE BAITS If you are going to use particles as bait, it is essential that you prepare them correctly. Unprepared or incorrectly prepared particle baits can injure and kill fish. This is why many waters have banned them. Particles are cheap and effective, I strongly recommend you try them. Here are some guidelines for preparing your bait. Adzuki Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Blackeye Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Buckwheat Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer until they split Chick Peas Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Haricot Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Hemp Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer until they split Lima Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Maize Pre-Soak beans for 24 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Maple Peas Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Peanuts Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes A bait that i dislike to use , Also they are banned on a lot of lakes Pinto Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Red Kidney Beans Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Tares Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes Tiger Nuts Pre-Soak beans for 24 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes These are my all time particle and have produced fish upto 35lb for me Wheat Pre-Soak beans for 14 hours – then bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes. A very cheap particle is pigeon conditioner corn - just soak for about 10 mins in hot water ,or cover and leave in a bucket overnight     |

| Re: What should i be useing in my spod ? Dont forget safety.!! Use a suitable rod of 3lb or more for a standard full spod Use a strong suitable reel Use 15 lb line or braid is better but remember to cast a couple of times empty first and wet the line before casting a loaded spod Use shock leader if you are sending the spod 60 yards plus out 30lb should be suffice tj |

| Re: What should i be useing in my spod ? Go carefull not to over feed the swim. I only use a small spod on a carp rod and only use it on runs water that are 10+ acers. If ur useing braid wet the spool line and rod rings also wear a finger stool. |
