I've had a selection of wooden balls (with glued in rig rings) marinating for well over a decade now - PP60 and lashings of NButyric . . .zero adverse effects . . you've reminded me to go and do my annual agitation!

Garlic oil to flavour wooden balls is a winner

Take a look at crayproof baits they have some quality stuff and with some of there plastic baits you can put your boilie or pop up inside to save the trouble of having to soak plan plastic hookbaits

Fishing a water with crays - not horrendous but enough to be a pain

Are there particular liquids to avoid? I wasn't thinking I'd use Butyric Acid for example!

Any other favourites people have? Or other liquids that work well with plastics/fake baits?
