In this guide, we'll show you how to create delicious and irresistible corn boilies that carp simply can't resist. These boilies are not only packed with corn flavor, but also have a satisfying crunchy texture. Here's what you'll need:
- Half a cup of ground cornflakes
- 1 cup of corn flour
- Pure corn oil (2 teaspoons)
- 3 slices of bread (turned into breadcrumbs)
- 1 cup of poppy seeds
- 1 cup of sweet corn (blended into a creamy sauce)
- 1 cup of sugar
- 2 medium-sized eggs
To start, you'll want to turn your three slices of bread into breadcrumbs. The easiest way to do this is to pulse them in a food processor. Next, you'll add in half a cup of ground cornflakes, followed by one cup of corn flour. Then, quarter a cup of dried poppy seeds for added crunchiness. Mix everything together with your hands.
Next, add in your blended sweet corn and a cup of sugar. Mix everything together using a fork or spoon. After four hours of letting the corn juices soak in, you can add in your whisked eggs and two teaspoons of pure corn oil. Mix everything together one final time to ensure all ingredients are well-combined.
To form the boilies, slowly add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients until you have a wet enough mixture to form a dough. Roll the dough into boilies of any size you prefer. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil and cook the boilies for two to three minutes, or until they're floating. Spread them out on a kitchen towel to cool and harden for at least 24 hours.
With these simple, off-the-shelf ingredients, you can make crunchy poppy seed corn boilies for carp bait right in your own kitchen.
