Boilie crushers, if you didn’t realise already, are used to grind down boilies into crumb.
You can use boilie crumb, or chopped boilies, for spod mixes, PVA bags or even as a loose feed.
There are a couple of leading models, such as the Ridgemonkey Boilie Crusher, and the Korda Krusha, on top of a few unbranded versions.
Let’s take a quick look at some of these, and also some videos on creating some effective baits with boilies.
1. Ridgemonkey Advanced Boilie Crusher
This is probably the best selling boilie crusher, and it’s not hard to see why!
Capable of grinding 1kg of boilies in less than 60 seconds, the Ridgemonkey Boilie Crusher is a workhorse when it comes to chopping up bait!
Made to fit onto the modular bucket system, the advanced version features stainless steel blades, a quick release handle to make it easy to transport and a see through safety lid so you can see what’s going on as you ‘grind’ away!
There are some options available to you.
You can buy the full advanced kit, which includes the modular bucket and crusher head.
Or, if you are a spod king, and this is your main method of getting bait out to your spot, you can purchase a 5kg hopper extension.
Other features include ABS construction (both bucket and crusher), varied blade pattern which yields all sorts of shapes and sizes of boilie, plus a hard-wearing drawstring bag to keep the boilie chopper in once you have finished.
If you want the best boilie crusher on the market, you don’t need to read on any further!
Features
Robust ABS construction
Corrosion resistant stainless steel blades
Non-identical blade pattern for a varied final texture
Removable handle
See through safety lid
EUIPO registered design
Inclusive hard wearing drawstring carry bag
2. Korda Krusha
Capable of chopping hard baits, such as boilies and pellets, this boilie crusher is very simple to use!
To use, seperate the two halves and fill the Krusha section marked ‘fill’ with a handful of boilies and pellets.
Next, replace the other half over the top and twist.
If you want to create a finer boilie crumb, you should twist vigorously, but if you just a want them halved and quartered, just a few twists will do.
The resulting crumb, or chopped boilies, are great in a PVA bag, spod mix or stick mix ready to lure a hungry carp!
Features
Sizes: Small or Large (for 20mm bolies)
Tough plastic
Sturdy & well made
Quieter than ‘food choppers’
3. BZS Bait Crusher
Next up, and a best selling boilie crusher on Amazon, is the BZS bait crusher.
Made from a high-density plastic, the shell seems firm and was reliable throughout as I grinded around half a kilo of boilies readied for my spod mix.
It is pretty small, so if you intend on crushing a large amount of boilies, you may want to reconsider another boilie crusher for this task!
However, due to its size, it does make it easier to store away inside your fishing luggage I guess.
As we’ve mentioned with other crushers, you can grind down boilies, pellets and tiger nuts – so this could be a good tool for filling PVA bags or making up stick mixes.
I’d give this boilie crusher a solid 7 out of 10.
Features
High-density material
Size: Small
Breaks down large baits
Lightweight
Easy to use & clean
4. NGT Manual Boilie Grinder System
Make light work of grinding down baits with this ‘bait crusher’ from NGT.
Opting to choose a plastic ‘case’ in which to place your boilies, you can grind down bait to a fine powder, which is useful for bulking out spod mixes, making a paste or for loading into your bait boat.
Operation is fairly easy – simply place your bait into the plastic case, close, and use the handle to grind away.
I was surprised at how quickly it got through a handful of 12mm boilies, so this could be an ideal crusher for beginners or anglers on a budget.
Oh, and I forgot to mention that a handy neoprene case is also included!
Features
Multi bait grinder system
Fast to operate
Manual handle to crush bait
Includes a case
5. Ridgemonkey Choppa
When this was released, my initial thoughts were ‘why?’ because they already have the boilie crusher!
However, this is designed for halving boilies ONLY.
Fair enough, and there are three sizes to choose from too; Small (14-16mm), Medium (18-20mm) and Large (22-26mm).
After using one, I can see how fast and useful this is – especially when it comes to preparing your spod mixture, or filling your bait boat!
Compact, it stores away nicely into my rucksack.
After using these on multiple sessions, it is actually a useful baiting tool to have!
Features
Three sizes available
Simple to use, easy to empty
Hard-wearing two-piece design
Stainless steel cutting blade
Protected registered design
