Product Information
Full details
Bait-Tech Cat Bites are precision-engineered 28mm pre-drilled pellets designed specifically for dedicated catfish anglers looking to maximize their success in various water conditions. These baits are formulated to provide a sustained, intense flavour release that triggers aggressive feeding responses, though their large size makes them less suitable for smaller predator species or match fishing scenarios.

FAQs
Can these be used for carp fishing?
While they are designed for catfish, they can be used for large carp; however, the 28mm size is quite selective and may deter smaller specimens.
Do I need to drill them further?
No, they are pre-drilled and ready to use immediately on standard hair rigs.
How long do they last in the water?
Depending on water temperature and the presence of crayfish, these can typically last 4 to 8 hours while continuously releasing attractants.
Should I keep these in the fridge?
Storing them in a cool, dry, dark place is sufficient. Avoid extreme heat to prevent the natural oils from going rancid.
Can I use these with PVA bags?
Yes, they are compatible with PVA, but ensure you are using a slow-melt version if the water is warm, as the oils in the pellets can affect some faster-melting bags.
Troubleshooting
Bait softening too quickly in warm water
Use a finer mesh stocking or a smaller bait stop to increase surface tension around the hole.
Not getting bites in high-activity areas
Try 'boosting' the scent by soaking a few pellets in a matching fish oil or amino liquid for 24 hours prior to your session.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Perfectly pre-drilled for quick and easy rigging
- Slow-breakdown formula keeps the scent trail active for long durations
- High-oil, high-protein content mimics natural catfish prey
- Robust 28mm size avoids nuisance smaller fish
Cons
- May be too large for target species other than catfish
- Oil-rich content requires careful storage during hot weather to prevent spoilage
- Not suitable for use in venues where fishmeal-based baits are restricted
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal results, thread your hooklink through the pre-drilled hole and secure it using a standard bait stop. Due to their oil content, it is best to use a strong, catfish-rated hooklink material to avoid tangles. Store these pellets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; ensure the resealable packaging is tightly closed after every session to maintain the potency of the tuna and krill attractants. If storing for more than a few weeks, consider an airtight container to keep the moisture profile consistent.
