The Dutchman Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I just put in an order for popcorn salt and of course the shipping is killing me. I used to use ground non-iodized salt but I thought I could not get the transparancy I would have liked. How many of you use popcorn vs. another salt or form of salt for you baits? Just curious.

alsworms Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I've always prefered popcorn salt, and get all supplies at Barry Farms. www.barryfarm.com Great people, fast service, and they don't kill on shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I use kosher salt and powder it in a coffee grinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softworm Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Most grocery stores carry the popcorn salt. Sams Club has it a little larger quanity. That is where I get mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProP-JunKie Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) I have been using Canning and Pickling Salt. It runs about 3 bucks for a 4 lbs. box. It is finer than regular, but to get a decent sink rate you will definitely loose transparency. Do you have a Cash and Carry where you are. I know they have popcorn salt too.

Stick'em Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Sea salt is another option. I'm using pickling salt and sea salt. Which is best is a toss up right now. The sea salt seemed to 'powder' better when I ground it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Linnell Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 I bought a 50lb bag of fine grade feed mixing salt for 7$. Which would be great if I used salt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stick'em Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Is anybody using a coarse salt? That is next on my list. I don't know if the pickling salt is available without ording it. I'm probably going to try the sea salt in a coarse grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
