How to make potent pink tuna corkballs
Looking to create your own perfectly round corkball pop-ups? Here’s the device and recipe you need to produce some of the best…
With the long awaited arrival of the CC Moore Corkball Roller, the ability to produce those extra special hookbaits has never been easier. As anglers, we place our faith in certain colours and flavours, special tweaks that have outwitted our most memorable catches or distinctive colours that have led to numbers of fish! While off the shelf pop- ups have accounted for literally hundreds of thousands of captures globally, the unique ability to develop and tweak special mixes in order to create those game-changing hookbaits is most certainly an edge!
Crafting those perfectly formed, custom corkballs couldn’t be easier and with a few simple steps, you will be well on your way to a batch of the finest! You will need the following to create some wonderful, potent smelling Tuna Pinks.
The Equipment
- A small mixing bowl
- A pipette
- Teaspoon and fork
- Medium egg
- 12mm corkballs
- CC Moore Corkball Roller
- CCMoore Fluoro Pink Hard Hookbait Mix
- Pacific Tuna Bait Spray Additive
- Pan of water and stove

Extra attraction
After the process of making the Tuna Pinks is complete, simply dry them for a few days until they are firm. The baits can then be rehydrated with a small amount of the Tuna Bait Spray, for an added boost of attraction. If another colour is required, simply repeat the process with one of the Alternative Hookbait Kits, which can be used to create awesome Tuna yellow and orange hookbaits. The world is simply your oyster when it comes to rolling your own, so a little tweak here and there will go a long way in creating those ‘personal’ specials.
