Hi the recipe christob has set out is absolutely correct and with the sugar in it doesn't need preservatives and if you want a harder ball that doesn't break easily then use flour as binder not the popcorn feed.
Christo now I know why you guys sukkel with small fish in tournaments, it's because of all the feedballs.
Our team that has 1 Gold, 2 Silvers and 1 Bronze at the champs never use more than 3000 bolls even at Bloemhof.
The mass baiting campaign is just not our cup of team. We fish and feed accurately which needs a lot less feed and we rocket 4-8 hours a day on the peg delivering particles and boilies into the swim consistently rather than mass carpet bombing.
Our best using this method is 1195kg in 60 hours.
The last tournament myself and Marius won was with 877kg in August in Bloemhof and we only used 1000 (7kg 10mm goilies included)ready made balls and 500 fresh that we made on the peg and in the 877kg we had 2 fish that were shy of the 1.5kg mark.
Our average was 3.89kg per fish and we lost only 3 fish off the hook in total, fishing with Tri-Blade 8714 #6
Maybe I'm just to lazy to hurt myself putting 10,000 feedballs in at 60m
Gideon van Zyl of Pretoria makes a press that one uses with a PVC ram tube (Makes a sausage) and cutter (cuts 5 equal sized discs) then press to make 5 feedballs at a time.
With this 2 guys can make 7000 feedballs in a day and if you don't drink a few beers and watch rugby while doing it you can make 10,000 in a day.
