well obviously Richard is using it and he created LoneStar Baits and that is the base mix I use for boilies so there are a few of us who do

Be aware that soya flour is called soy flour here in the States.

One could theoretically drive to five or six stores asking for soya flour but never finding it, not realizing that soya flour is the same thing as soy flour. Not that I ever did that, mind you....

Brett I know the out come of ready mades against self made boilies this was my remark earlier in this tread
Ready made commercial boilies SUCK because it has a lot of preservatives in them..it makes them bitter in taste

I've fished my boilies alongside commercial baits and the results are exactly as expected.

Sometimes my bait owns, sometimes it gets owned.

usually, it comes out pretty even though. I, however, use a few unique flavors...

This Autumn and Winter, I will be using the boilie that somehow got named "moon pie". Brilliant flavor though, I think it is just about time for a rolling party in my backyard (outside only, some of these flavors would quickly cause problems with the wife).

Also worth noting:

Semolina Flour is easy to find, you guys just need to stop buying groceries at wallmart.

This is why I dont have a wife anymore lol
But I do have problems with the neighbors thou...
Last wensday ive got my fish mix diliberd by truck..650pounds of it
Its in my living room right now to keep it dry until saterday ..thats when we are going to mix it in the GARDEN
And store it all in air tight containers in the garage
So the neighbors dont like me very much ...IMAO

"So WHY is NOBODY using this mix?"

I do and I know for a fact it was the early beginnings of a few peoples baits, though many are not rolling their own anymore. Richards baits were some of the most successful I have ever used, I did not have as much success on the base mix rolled myself, either I screwed up or its not the same as I used to buy from Richard. Red Demon baits were almost as good but I have a feeling they were based on Richards to some extent.

anyone ever tried anything like this?

clicky

yep almond meal is great to put in a nutty mix
Its perfect on its own and you can use sweet flavors like scopex with it
The stuff is a bit fatty so you have to cut down in the soy flour ..you dont want it TO fat..rolls not so good when its fat

I get my Semo at my local health food store. It's in the freezer.

Why do you keep it in the freezer gg it will only make it wet
If you just store it dry you can keep it for a loooong time

do you absolutely have to use the semolina's or is there an alternative?

Where can you get it if thats the case?

Yea semolina is a must have or they wont come out right. Whole foods usually has some and central market is a good place to look.

ok, there is a Central Market in hulen, gotta make a run over there

If y'all having trouble finding something, check with me. I order for my restaurant and can get some stuff at a decent price.

On 183 and 114 area in Euless, there are a bunch of Indian stores, many good ingredients can be found in them.
1lb of Curry Powder is $4.99
1lb Paprika is $4.99


I'm currently making a base mix for this winter, infarct will be rolling bait this weekend to test in Town Lake next weekend.

When making your baits, don't just use a liquid flavor. Carp like to have something tasty in there too.

Just thinking richard if the paprica is that price..the chili will be the same 4.99 right?
Do they have both in 10pound bags?
I ask this because i usualy add 5% paprica and 5% chili to a birdfood mix
That way you dont need any flavor at all to make the perfect robin red mix

I wanted to bump this thread for it's valuable information for many of the new guys here on the forum who want to make their own boilies.

Thanks again Josh for putting this up.

Very nice thread, I'm gonna try boiles soon

Thanks been looking for a good recipe to do my last one wasn't so good only caught 2 fish ha!
