iowa,

Good thread sir,I salute you….

Been looking at a few forums,and seen some very mixed views on these “Blueys”….

I personally,am prepared to try them,(When the price drops !!),so as I can say from personal expreience whether I think they are any good or not….

But by the accounts of a fair few who use this,and other sites,they are not as “Wonderfull” as the mags and that make out………..

Greenman,

The only thing wrong with Bacon,is there is no sausage,egg,and beans with it !!!
:0)

the bait i use catch me fish (sometime’s) so i don’t think i’ll feel the need to use bluey’s but what r they? r they sandeel’s or somethink simalar and imported?

[Jackyboy]

I’ve asked around locally. It’s a fish brought by Taiwanese longliners, caught in deep sea by netting. They come in solid frozen blocks and retailed in smaller units. This was introduced in Mars by a ship called the stella Marou, hence the name ‘marou’ locally.

Wanted to add, there is a batch which has a yellowish meat, avoid them as they have less oil content!

[DaveyBParticipant]

If you drop one of the 10kg blocks on the floor it separates the blueys inside – they’re packed in layers on blue plastic sheets and the fish are spaced so they aren’t touching each other. Very impressive. I wouldn’t want to be the one doing the packing though!
I can confirm that they work exceptionally well in Iceland and Norway – having used them myself. Just waiting for some to use here in the UK – My opinion of them as a UK bait is open at present, but I’ll post again once I’ve given them a proper go.
I gather that the pike and catfish lads have latched onto them over here – simply due to the massive oil content, which is unbelievably high. I’ve never seen anything like it.
We had two halves on a paternoster rig last week while drifing some open ground for an hour, the fishing was pants, so we went back to the marina for some lunch. (Bear in mind these baits had been submerged and drifted at about 1.2 knots for best part of an hour, then left to dry on the deck for a further three hours)
When we got back on the boat, we stripped the rig and threw the two baits over the side – the surface just erupted with oil splodges as the baits sank to the bottom – unbelievable!
It’ll be interesting to see how they perform next summer, especially for tope. I’m gonna give them a good go – they’re the most interesting new bait that I’ve seen for a long time. And, I’m certain that there must be a few situations where the high oil content will give you the edge – just gotta work out the best way to fish ’em. Could be interesting mashed up in a feeder for bream?

[Jackyboy]

This stuff has a high oil content and I said it since we started to discuss about this bait. You need a good supply of coarse salt to get the meat firm to hold on the hook and obviously you need to keep the skin.

Using this as mashed ground bait in ‘Deep’ water is no effective as all the oil floats separated and floats back. If you are going to reduce it into smaller particles the oil will just float away from your ground bait unless you make it sink fast. This is why here we mix it with coral sand and a binder like bread… I guess bran will work too.

I think if I use bluey from a rocky shore mark I would catch more species of Moray eels than fish in one session, I don’t know why but this attack eels like a magnet. I prefer using anchovies and red mullet for bait…

[Jackyboy]

I’m more interested in S’Quid!

[iowa]

I refer to an earlier Fred, In Forn parts, specifically Nordic, large predatory fish are most often caught using pirks and jigs, oil content Zero.
Also the longlining fleet uses automated hook baiting systems from Mustad, with composite sausage style baits not blueys however local mom and pop operations inshore may use them.

[Marksouth]

Jackyboy, you’re a genius.

All we need to do is buy up a huge supply of perfectly good usable squid

defrost it and then refreeze it a few times and there you have the new wonder bait.

Pinkies Frozen S’QUID

I recon we could get everyone to buy at least 1 packet if we get the right people to shout about its wonders.

After that, who cares.

Suckers!!!!

[Marksouth]

I’ve even designed the packaging.

http://PINKIES.notlong.com

Top Matchmen all over the whole world (maybe the universe) all agree that Pinkies really are really really good and as soon as you put some on your hook, every fish in the oceans worldwide will be making a beeline for you hook – WATCH OUT!!!!

[Paully]

If DaveyB was waiting to use some blueys in the UK,where was he drifting for an hour and the fishing was pants?

[DaveyBParticipant]

Northern Iceland Paully – the weather was sheeeeiiiiiite and we couldn’t get out of the fjord to where the fish were!

[TF_Greenman]

NOW, Now kids, make contact and get it sorted.

[Jackyboy]

Okay, Sorry for all inconvenience caused…

Blueys are the top bait! A Super bait that will out fish worms and other baits like squid, mackerel and crab. It has been proven effective by long liners which fish I don’t know where in the Pacific’ has been using it at extreme distance and depth and has caught huge amount of fish with them. I understand, fishing boats are using them in Iceland and have been very successful with anglers who have tried them over there, so they do work extremely well.

It holds better than mackerel on the hook as it was rightly pointed out, give a good scent trail as well.

You can’t get better bait for 2.50 and on top of that has caught more species when compared with other traditional bait. Excellent bait quality, which is value for money.

Please now, don’t ban me…I say it again Blueys is a top dog bait!

[Paully]

So these baits work in Iceland and Norway except when fishing in a fjord.Wasn’t Monty Pythons dead parrot sketch about a Norwegian bluey,it has ceased to be,this is a dead parrot! I’ve got some lug, Do they catch fish? Er yes, Right i’ll take some of those then!

[Pout]

I have used Blueys in several shore locations, yes I have caught the odd fish on them but generally I think they are c–p and not that easy to use for the average angler. It has been said in the past they will catch far more anglers than fish, just my honest opion .

[Jackyboy]

Bait diggers doing it for a living should be worried for the demands of their efforts. If it is as mentioned how this wonderful bait is effective, there would be an important decline for worms and peelers?
