Burley Burley Burley

[WiseGuy]

On the risk of sounding a bit foolish, can someone explain the best way to burley for land based fishing.

I have heard (not tried) that you can get a can of cheap cat food, punch some holes in the tin, tie a line around it and throw it in... Sounds a bit well

Any other ideas? and what is best stuff to use?

Cheers WG

G'day,

have also heard the same thing but have not used it.

Everytime I fish Botany Bay I use chook pellets, but the ones that are treated with Tuna oil and I get good results, and when cleaning the fish they are full of the burley I used so this works 9 I think )??

As for land based, not sure but I used to use an old stocking with mashed pilly's and some tuna oil and throw a few sinkers in it to weight down or if trying to get some surface action just let it float around while being tied onto a hand line...Hope this helps you out..

Cheers Wayne

I mash bread and pillies together. The bread stays on the surface and attract undesirables like Mado's and sweep while the pilies sink attracting ream,snapper and live bait.

I'll try the stovking and chook pellets with tuna oil.. I'm me won't mind and I'll return them as good as new...

Never know she may attract something else after I have finished with them!!
