Insect Protein Meal (De-fatted)
A top-quality de-fatted Insect Protein meal made from Black Soldier Fly (BSF) Larvae. It’s no surprise that this meal is set to take the bait market in a big way, already touted as a hugely sustainable replacement for fishmeal in Fish and Animal feed formulations.
During trials with BSF Meal it has certainly raised an eyebrow or two, catch reports have been phenomenal! Insects are a natural food of all species of fish, what could be more natural than Insect Meal apart from the live ones?
Regular BSF meal normally has high levels of saturated fatty acids which are almost solid at room temperature, as BAF Insect Pro is a de-fatted product makes this perfect for inclusion in fish/aquatic feed formulations all year round. Typical Protein level of 55% and Fat/Lipid level of 10-12%, quite similar to most fishmeal’s.
Recommended inclusion up to 20% in a boilie mix, can also be added to stick mixes as well as groundbaits.
*Please note* This is quite a buoyant ingredient so consideration should be given to other denser materials should you wish to use the higher end of recommended inclusion rates, a little trial and error.
