Lictoga Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 White bait is $11 a kg when it's in I'm using what they call hardy heads at $9 a kg, but these are 8cm ish and I remove the head gill section scale and fins so it's easer for them to swallow and the bass a bloody guts I don't want them to hurt them selfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lictoga Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I don't and do not recommend using anything labeled "bait" means it is not fit for human consumption and can be full of all kinds of preservative chemicals, as well as being half rotten food. Like I said if you wouldn't eat it don't feed it to your fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
