FAQs

Can I reuse the mesh?

The mesh is designed as a single-use consumable for each bait application.

Does the mesh dissolve in water?

No, the Castaway Bait Guard is made from durable material intended to stay intact until you retrieve or strike.

Will this affect the scent of the bait?

No, the mesh structure allows water flow, ensuring the scent dispersion of your bait remains effective.

Is the 25mm size adjustable?

The material has a natural stretch, but it is best suited for baits around 25mm in diameter.

How long will the 7m spool last?

This depends on the size of your baits, but on average, it provides enough material for dozens of rigging applications.

Troubleshooting

Mesh is difficult to slide over the bait

Ensure the bait is not wider than the 25mm diameter and consider wetting the bait slightly to reduce friction.

Mesh tearing during the cast

Check that the hook point is not snagging the mesh fibers during the rigging process and avoid overstretching the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents nuisance species from stealing bait
  • Increases the likelihood of target species hookups
  • Easy to cut and apply in the field
  • Provides long-lasting protection against crayfish

Cons

  • Requires manual trimming for each bait setup
  • Not suitable for extremely large bait profiles
  • May require practice to apply quickly in cold weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the system, simply cut a piece of the 25mm mesh slightly longer than your bait. Insert your bait into the tube, secure the ends by twisting or tying, and hook the bait through the mesh. The system is compatible with most standard fishing hooks. After your session, ensure you remove any organic debris from the mesh to prevent mold or corrosion. Store the remaining spool in a dry, dark place to maintain the elasticity of the mesh over time.
