Homemade Trout Dough Bait Recipes

There are obviously many types of trout bait sold in retail stores, but making homemade trout dough bait is a great way to admittedly involve yourself in the process of catching some trout. Homemade trout bait recipes can admittedly be altered based on what colors, flavors, and smells are flourishing for trout in your area. The following are guidelines for making two distinct types of homemade trout bait.

The first type of homemade bait is meant to entice the trout's taste buds and sense of smell by employing cheese and garlic. First, take a quarter of a pound of Velveeta and melt it in your microwave. Then, generate the dough by mixing together the melted Velveeta, 2 cups water, 1 cup flour, 1 cup cornmeal, ½ cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon garlic powder (you can all the time add more garlic powder to generate a stronger smell). Once you have mixed these ingredients until they form a pliable dough, fill a stockpot with water and bring it to a boil. Form the dough into small balls and cook in the boiling water for 1-2 minutes as if you were cooking dumplings. After cooking, dry the dough balls out by laying them on some sheets of paper towel.

The second method of creating homemade trout dough bait is done by utilizing food coloring to attract trout visually. The use of sardines will also cater to their sense of smell. In this recipe, consolidate 1 cup water, ¼ cup light corn syrup, some drops of food coloring (your choice of color, just make sure it is bright) and about 2 tablespoons peanut butter in a small saucepan and allow it to heat up. Mix ½ cup flour and ½ cup cornmeal in a bowl and add this aggregate to the saucepan. Continue to cook over low heat until the aggregate has thickened. Remove the saucepan from the stove and add to the dough aggregate ¼ cup Marshmallow Fluff and one can of sardines. You will want to puree the sardines in a blender or food processor so it is liquefied before adding it to the dough. Allow this aggregate to cool, and then mix in some cotton balls, which will help give your bait some texture and shape, and then form the dough into small balls. This method is very smelly but the ache you may sense while cooking up this concoction could lead to some very big rewards the next time you are trout fishing.

Both of these trout baits can be attached to a treble hook and used with a bobber. By tantalizing some of the trout's sense at one time, you will find that these dough baits are some of the best rainbow trout lures you could ever use.
