Ken's 7 Carp Bait Recipes: Easy-to-Make Boilies Anglers Love

We’re often asked if our bait guru Ken Townley can share a few of his more basic recipes and that’s exactly what he’s done this month. See Ken’s “magnificent 7” below.

There’s one method for all seven:

• Place the dry powders in a bag
• Blow into the neck of the bag to inflate it, and then twist the neck of the bag to form a seal
• Shake the bag vigorously to blend the dry powders
• In a bowl break four large eggs and then add any liquid attractors such as flavours, essential oils, liquid foods etc
• Whisk to blend the eggs with the liquid attractors
• Add the dry powders to the eggs and use a fork or your hands to create the boilie paste
• Roll out to the desired size and shape (round boilie, boilie chops, boilie pizza etc)
• Boil for the required time, depending on size and shape

All you have to do now is decide which ones you’d like to try.
