Go to the shopSignature Series Raw Tigernuts (Hook Baits) are a purpose-selected hook bait option for serious carp anglers who want complete control over their bait preparation. Chosen under Loutjie Louwies trusted philosophy - “If it works for me, it will work for you” - this 250g pack contains mixed-size raw tigernuts specifically suited for hook bait use.
Unlike bulk feeding particles, this hook bait pack is designed to give anglers versatility at the rig level. The mixed sizes allow you to select the perfect tiger nut for your setup - whether you prefer a single large tiger nut, a double tiger nut presentation, or a smaller tiger nut tipped with artificial corn, pop-ups, oozing (bleeding) floats, soft floats, hard floats, mielies, boilies, deegie or wafters. This flexibility makes it ideal for both bank angling carp (papgooi) and specimen carp fishing.
By cooking the tigernuts yourself, you control the final texture, crunch factor, and flavour profile. During preparation, the tiger nuts can be infused with concentrates, dips, boldips, sugars, or liquid bait enhancers to create a hook bait that stands out from standard feed. Once cooked, these tigernuts become tough, durable hook baits that resist nuisance fish while remaining highly attractive to carp.
Although primarily intended for hook bait use, some anglers also incorporate cooked tigernuts into mielie bom or ground feed mixes to complement their hook presentation and reinforce the fish feeding spot (voerplek). This makes the product a versatile crossover option between hook bait preparation and targeted feeding strategies.
