Firmly holding a generous lump of either bread flake torn from the centre of a loaf, or a large crust from unsliced bread the Bread Bomb secures a hookbait the same way as a pellet band. Controlled stretch ensures the bread remains trapped in place, preventing it from breaking down and allowing several recasts. The long hook gripper sleeve disguises the hook and keeps the point exposed for efficient hooking. Bread Bomb hookbaits can be fished popped-up, balanced to rest gently over weed or on the surface, on their own or amongst free offerings.
