Believe it or not but dead maggots can be as good if not better than live ones. Here’s my quick tips and in slight in to keeping and using dead maggots
Can also make them into "Sticky Maggs" using Angel Delight Desert powder from the Food Cupboard - I keep some old out of date Angel Delight just for that. Don't waste your money on Sticky Magg' powder from the Tackle shop!!
Yes very much so. Think it’s a miss conception that maggots have to be live to use them. Dead pinkies are another great one. If your fishing a silty venue dead maggots / pinkies are the way to go. As you say they won’t burrow in to the silt
@@SoartackleCoUk on busy venues in my opinion dead’s are going to get hammered more then live bait as the fish are presuming the dead’s have been on the deck for a while 👍🏻
Yep 👍 can look more natural. Also if maggots burrow in the silt fish tend to dig for them stirring loads of crap up of the bottom which can mask any hook bait and or cause foul hooking
Yes they can be re used. Try putting them in a bait box, fill it with water and then freeze them in the water. Defrost when you want to use them and use them out of the water they were frozen in. They freeze alot better this way and look alot better than just freezing them in a bag.
