How to use them in boilies
Bait dyes change the colour of a boilie. Bright baits such as yellow, white or pink stand out on the bottom and are popular for hookbaits and pop-ups; dark colours look natural and suit pressured waters.
Dye powders are dosed in grams per kilo of dry mix, typically around 1 g. Add them to the eggs before mixing for an even colour. Colour does not change the nutrition or the analysis, so use it for visibility and confidence.
