Tigernuts are characterized by a high concentration of natural sugars, fats (oleic acid), and starches, offering a unique nutritional signal that cyprinids associate with a primary energy source.

Their main strength lies in the extremely crunchy texture that simulates the crushing of aquatic mollusks, stimulating the auditory and feeding frenzy of other fish in the school. 

Technical characteristics

• Natural sugars: high glucose content released during fermentation.
• "Crunch" effect: the hard texture stimulates predatory instinct and food competition.
• High selectivity: extremely resistant to nuisance fish and crustaceans.
• Post-cooking digestibility: once cooked, the starches become easily assimilable.
• Strategic versatility: perfect both as bait (single or balanced) and for creating feeding carpets.

Usage tips

• Baiting: use one or two drilled nuts, perhaps balanced with a small piece of cork or pop-up foam to neutralize the weight of the hook.
• Crushing: add crushed Tigernuts to stick mixes to instantly release sugars and oils into the bait's radius of action.
• Grain mix: they combine perfectly with hemp and corn to create a complex feeding zone.
