BEHIND THE SCENES - VAC TUMBLER
If you're a carp angler, you know the importance of having the right bait. The right bait can make the difference between a successful fishing trip and a frustrating one. There are many ways to enhance hook baits, but one of the most effective ways is by using a vacuum tumbler, which is what we here at Boilie.Co use on all of our hook-baits.
A vacuum tumbler is a machine that is commonly used in the food industry to marinate and flavour meat. However, it can also be used to enhance the flavour and scent of your carp baits. Our vacuum tumbler works by creating a vacuum inside a rotating drum. The bait, along with any flavorings or additives, is placed inside the drum, and the machine is turned on. As the drum rotates, the vacuum inside the drum causes the bait to expand and contract rapidly, forcing the flavorings and additives deep into the bait.
Here are some reasons why using a vacuum tumbler is better than just soaking hook-baits:
- Uniform Flavour Distribution
One of the most significant advantages of using a vacuum tumbler is that it ensures a uniform distribution of flavour throughout your bait. When you soak your baits, the flavour is only absorbed into the outer layers of the bait, leaving the center relatively flavourless. With a vacuum tumbler, the bait is tumbled continuously, ensuring that the flavour is distributed evenly throughout the entire bait.
- Faster Results
Vacuum tumbling is a faster process than soaking. The tumbling action ensures that the flavour is absorbed more quickly and efficiently than just soaking. This means that you we can prepare your baits much faster and, which not only speeding up the manufacturing process but also stops the baits going soft from prolonged soaking.
- Better Preservation
Vacuum tumbling also helps to preserve your bait for longer periods. The process removes air from the bait, which slows down the oxidation process, keeping the bait fresher for longer. This massively improves the shelf life of our products.
- More Intense Flavours & Attraction
Because the vacuum tumbler ensures that the flavour and attractors is distributed evenly throughout the bait, you can achieve more intense and complex flavours than just soaking your bait. This is because the liquid additives penetrates deeper into the bait, giving it a more intense and longer-lasting scent.
- More Attractive Bait
Finally, using a vacuum tumbler can make your bait more attractive to carp. The tumbling action can create small abrasions on the surface of the bait, releasing scent particles into the water. This scent can attract carp from a greater distance, increasing your chances of a successful catch.
In conclusion, using a vacuum tumbler to flavour and enhance your carp bait is a more effective method than just soaking them. The process ensures a uniform distribution of flavour, faster results, better preservation, more intense flavours, and more attractive bait. If you're serious about your carp fishing, investing in a vacuum tumbler could be a game-changer.
