NOTE:
WE ARE NO LONGER PRODUCING OUR BAIT CAKE PRODUCTS IN HOUSE; NOW OFFERING LICENSING OPPORTUNITIES TO QUALIFIED COMPANIES
Why did we stop production of this product in house?
Due to reports from all over Canada, USA, and abroad where the bait cakes have been succesfully used, it has been clear that the "landed" cost per cake to the fishermen is just to much. Therefore, the only way to drastically reduce this end cost along with eliminating the high costs of shipping is to allow qaulified companies interested in setting up their own operations to produce our bait cake products for their own markets in house. We are thus offering them a LICENSING OPPORTUNITY. Interested Companies should contact info@aceofbaits.com
We would like to thank all our loyal customers which enjoyed this product and do apologize for any inconvenience this decision may cause for the time being. We hope that these said companies will take this opportunity to provide this product to you again soon.

Whether fishing in warmer shallow waters or deep colder waters, we have the lobster bait solution for you! These 100% Canadian made revolutionary Patent Pending TIME-RELEASE BAIT CAKES were formulated and designed for the commercial lobster fishery. If lobsters are in your area, they will be in your trap!
SCENT ATTRACTANT OPTIONS:• HERRING BLEND
• SARDINE BLEND
*Or can be made with the most popular attractant working in your area
Ace of Baits Patent Pending Time Release Bait Cakes
Bait cakes are composed of 100% Natural Fish & Fish Oil Products. You have a choice between a Herring or Sardine Blend bait cake. The availability and consistency of bait today is becoming increasingly less and less each year, which has forced fishermen to look for any and all alternatives. Look no further, through years of extensive product research and development we are proud to offer you this revolutionary solution by means of our patent pending time release formula which keeps you fishing where others can’t.
Bait Cakes come in three sizes for you to choose from. Each size is designed to last a specific number of days, giving you the advantage of re-baiting only when necessary; plain and simple, this SAVES you TIME and MONEY! These cakes have outstanding performance in all conditions, whether in warm or cold water temps, and can be used with most common bait jars and fine mesh bait bags on the market today!
Though it is not a requirement, you can also choose to maximize the amount of oil attractant in the cake thus "BOOSTING YOUR CATCH" that much more by simply "MARINATING, SOAKING, or DIPPING" the bait cake product with our special CRAB SCENT FISH OIL ATTRACTANT (used for lobster as well). The bait cakes are designed to have the maximum amount of fish oil attractant added upon the manufacturing process . . . but . . . after the initial manufacturing process is completed, the bait cake product can also absorb even more of the fish oil attractant for the extra "boost before use" if so desired.
Traditional raw bait costs have always been viewed and calculated as per pound. Bait Cakes however are viewed as per unit cost, in other words . . . How much does it cost you per day per trap?

How to Use:
Keep in mind that you can also choose to go that extra mile by "Boost Before Use". Simply marinate, soak, or dip the bait cake (avoid excessive amount of time) in Ace of Baits Crab Scent Fish Oil Attractant (used for lobster as well) before use which will provide that much more saturation of fish oil attractant value!
Step 1: Open package and remove Bait Cakes. Discard the small desiccant pouch(s) in an appropriate garbage receptacle. (note: desiccants are used to ensure product freshness until time of use)
Step 2 (Two options)
Option A: Place bait cake in an adequately vented bait jar (such as seen with Scotty’s vented bait jar design). Caution: if the height of the bait cake is seen to be more than half the height of the container, do not use this container. As the bait cake soaks it will grow. If container is not of suitable size for expanse to take place, the bait will push against the container lid which could hinder the baits performance characteristics to take full effect, not allowing adequate breakdown
Option B: Place bait cake in fine mesh bait bag and close tightly. It is Recommended to shorten mesh bag space to limit excessive bait movement which could cause premature breakdown and dissipation. If allowed to freely move about in the bait bag, the mesh of the bag can act as a "cheese grater" which will affect the amount of fishing days you get out of it. Its also important to note that if you are using a fine mesh bait bag you should also protect it with a bait cage of some sort to prevent the crustaceans claws from ripping and tearing thereby mashing the cake which again will affect the overall fishing days
Product Handling Store in cool dry place away from heat sources, including the concentration of direct sunlight. Product cannot be stored or re-packaged after use, designed for one-time use only. Please help protect our marine environment by recycling product packaging.
"IMPORTANT" - TO ENSURE PROPER BAIT CAKE PERFORMANCE, FOLLOW THESE OPTIONAL TIPS:
If using in COLD and/or DEEP water temperature applications:
Option 1: In the cold winter months when the outside temperature is coldest you can opt to Pre-soak the bait cake(s) by placing them in an adequate tub of seawater the night before. This will slightly rehydrate or otherwise moisten the bait cake thus allowing the cakes attractant value to immediately take affect. Please remember that this pre-soaking method can affect your total overall longevity or fishing days of the bait cake vs not pre-soaking as stated in Option 2.
Bait Cakes are designed with a special "Time Release" formula which, depending on fishing depths, currents and locations, these colder environments can possibly delay the cakes full performance or activation value by requiring a longer soak period for water absorbtion to take place. These colder temperatures can extend the bait cakes longevtiy or fishing days by providing an evnironment for slower extended breakdown characteristics. Ones have found that by following this simple pre-soak step, it is possible to see instant performance while still enjoying the fishing longevity.
Option 2: Bait your traps without pre-soaking allowing the normal absorption rates to take place. This method is good for ones that are not planning on pulling their traps for multiple days at a time, so pre-soaking is not of a concern.
Fishermen, for the most part, have followed the traditional raw baits of the past and hesitate when it comes to trying new products due to not only being unfamiliar with the product, but the uncertainty that comes along with it. If this describes yourself and you are concerned about the results when pulling on your first day soak, then Option 3 is the "no risk" option for you!
Option 3: Bait your traps with our bait cake. In addition to this put a small amount of your normal bait of choice in the trap in a seperate container . . . REMOVE this bait after your first pull. Why? This has given the cake the time to pre-soak while in the traps and now has full perfomance value. This method will ensure you have the peace of mind with no uncertainty regarding your catch!!!
If using in WARM and/or SHALLOW water temperature applications:
Do NOT "pre-soak" as was discussed with regards to colder temperatures. Why? The warm water temperatures allow for quicker water absorbtion thus re-hydrating the bait cake allowing the bait to perfom to its maximum level more rapidly.
For more suggestions and options, please see BAITING TIPS.
The breakthrough development of the bait cakes has, hands down, proven to be the winner for all areas and applications. It really just comes down to what scent option you prefer for what catch your going for. These cakes are also being used for Prawn, Crab, Halibut, Sturgeon, Slime Eel. You can use the bait cake whole for max longevity or you can cut the cake up into your desired size for quicker dispersal such as in a sport application.
