Thought I would throw this one out their and see if anyone has any interesting stuff they put in their berley.
Mine consists of the usual
Old Pillies
Prawn bits (after making the garlic prawns)
Tuna Oil
Chook pellets
and sand
Interested in what others are using. Mine is primarily for macks etc.
Depends on what my brother has had for breakfast
Seriously you cannot beat pilchards, especially those inferior imported ones that are around at present as that is all they are good for.
LW
Mince up fish frames, old bait etc, oil, chook pellets.
Yep agree with all of the above including anything fishy (leftovers ie frames, skins etc) and old bread.
Take Care T
Bacon, eggs, toast, coffee and kwells
Nahh, kidding, never been sea sick..
Used to have a mincer for the frames but got stupid once and put whiting heads in it and it shat itself and went into the wheely bin that week
Yours sounds good, The old chook pellets are OK, you have to store them properly or you get weavels, or worse, they get damp and mouldy and when that happens you would swear an old wino has been sleeping in your boat
If men are from Mars, and women are from Venus, politicians must be from uranus ?
only cut up pilchards, dropped over every minute or so, not into slicks that can be seen from space or need the oil spill people to clean up.
Figured I was on the same page as a few others, hope the Macks are running again this weekend.
Same as above , and mix it up well with sand . A mate of mine punctures a tin of cat food ( sardines , tuna or pillies ) and ties it to his boat has a good run on bream using this berley .
Cheers

Anybody got any good ideas for a motorised mincer? I was wondering if I ever came across an old insinkerator whether it would be up to the job. Anybody tried one?
Its called the missus Food Processor, but word of warning, use when she's out for a while and wash up well or she'll find out.
P.S. Lemon works well in getting ride of the smell
I believe in recycling when I catch crabs/prawns I kept the shells /heads /legs and with fish i kept the fish scale's e frames for crab bait so i kept the cycle going
and put the other usual ingredients in it i don't use blood or tuna oil what so ever what i have got works for me

i just use weatbix in a onion bag tied to the boat or on a rope off the rocks.
works a treat
All my left over bait and frames from previous trip mashed in together
