Is this you? Too carp anglers are in the same boat in that they cannot afford to buy the very most top quality HNV ready made baits in the volumes that they really need to compete on many big fish waters! Most of us have been or are now in this situation so here are just a few tips that will set you free of this problem for good, save you a fortune and catch you many more big fish!
Many carp anglers have a highly developed brand loyalty which companies actually strive to foster and develop to the degree that you might even feel guilty if considering changing brands! There is nothing wrong with brand loyalty because successful fishing is all about fishing confidently. However there are incredible catch-boosting benefits in using products from different bait companies in regards to your bait performance especially!
The unique combined effects of unique combinations of potent ingredients and additives never experienced before by carp improves your catches and even allows you to develop your own unique methods, rigs, baiting practices and strategies that will put you ahead of most other anglers who are generally stuck in a rut of conventional thinking!
Over the past 3 decades in my carp fishing I have gone through many phases of bait testing and as a result have quite a knowledge of what to combine with what differently in order to achieve many more potent competitive edges over both the fish and in many situations over fellow anglers to seriously improve my results.
Examples are many including the following! I remember applying very many kilograms of Hinders tiny high betaine Elipse pellets and crushed tiger nuts soaked in intense Talin and Thaumatin sweetener and tiger extracts and oils to catch the biggest carp and catfish from one Essex water with a leather carp to 46 pounds and a catfish of 68 pounds. You might like to try out crushed Mainline ready made baits like Active 8 mixed with other of their baits such as Fusion and Cell soaked in betaine HCL, Protaste sweetener and Nash Squid extract. A 1 foot long rig with small double pop-up baits straight off the lead is a well proven edge of mine for catfish. Nash Whiskey liquid is a useful additive I have mixed with PPC type amino complexes to great effect for big carp and when targeting big catfish too with homemade ground baits and boilies.
Dynamite Baits Halibut pellets soaked in Richworth liquid yeast with added Honey Yucatan and Tutti Fruitti combined with pure salmon oil plus some varied gustatory stimulants and digestive enhancers from a variety of companies has really done well for me. How many angler have tried pure maple syrup and Ccmoore Feedstim XP in the Mainline Grange CSL bait base mix for instance?! (Give this unique tip a try; perhaps as crushed homemade boilie baits and pastes in your PVA bags for instance!)
You might like to try out a homemade bait that will be very different, perhaps the new Mainline Cell base mix with added Tackle Box Ming Oil for instance with added Ccmoore blue cheese powder and garlic concentrate for instance.
Willis Worms have an outstanding Robin Red substitute that some major UK bait companies now include in their ready made baits. Because its great price I can absolutely pack it into my ground baits to awesome effect along with other of their very competitively-priced products including their worm extracts, squid andronone and CP70 fish protein for example, plus some of their custom liquid protein complexes.
I have been using products from Newfields Baits for a while and their green lipped mussel extract is simply amazing. I cannot choose between this and the high-impact de-fatted green-lipped mussel extract from Ccmoore!
I have used a very special combination of high grade hydrolyzed salmon protein, with a high PC liquid lecithin and premium grade Scottish salmon oil, in a variety of baits and application. These products are all very economical yet have been incredibly effective over this last spring and summer and even in winter in the cold substituting the salmon oil for betaine HCL! All these particular additives have come from a leading premium carp and koi pellet supplier and unique bait ingredients supplier called CW Baits and Carpfishingpellets (as found online.)
I have done very well mixing together ingredients from all kinds of companies to stretch my bait money further and improve my results. I have been making my own homemade baits since I started carp fishing in 1977. In the present economic climate more and more thinking carp anglers are getting into homemade bait making in order to save a fortune on ready made baits - and who can blame them?!
I used to use very many products from Rod Hutchinson and I absolutely trust all his products as he has been designing and refining incredibly successful baits since before probably 90 percent of UK carp anglers today were born! Who has not heard of Scopex for instance? A great tip is trying his Mulberry Florentine in hook baits or his nutritional Maple Steep Liquor supplement and flavour in very elevated levels in your free baits. I can tell you that Mike Willmot Essential Baits Natural Squid is a genuine winner and by adding cork dust to his and other ready made pastes will give you the ability to produce instant critically-balanced baits that will act as though they are boilies that have been in the water and are breaking down - just like wary carp like them!
Of course pellets are very important in the bait arsenal today. Combining pellets for specific purposes not just to stimulate carp feeding and pull them into your swim, but to get them to actually make more mistakes on your baits in a very potent edge. I know from long personal experience of catching wary fish that fishing over bait that is fully broken down can be the breakthrough edge required. You might wish to fish bloodworm pellet which are so popular today, but boosted with Ccmoore bloodworm extract and Red Venom liquid or Feedstim XP or Odyssey XXX liquid.
Personally I find the buoyant behavior of Ccmoore Milkimin pellets an incredible edge for more wary fish and I recently hooked the biggest fish in one smaller Kent lake at 35 pounds. The point is that this was actually on the first day of fishing and incorporating these in various forms in my homemade PVA bag mixes, homemade boilies and pastes! Just another thought is I recall really hammering the fish at Dream Lake One in France on Squid and krill extract ground baits with blast-frozen bloodworm in my PVA bag mix. Real blood worm goes a long way despite its cost when used exactly how and where it is best applied and I believe it is often superior to so many of the processed ready prepared bloodworm baits and additives available. (You might like to try it mixed with the new Nutrabaits bait called G-Force in crushed bloodworm extract-soaked form in PVA products etc.)
I have often used Nutrabaits Addits to enhance and further predigest my homemade ground bait and boilies and pellets to make them perform fantastically well but I do use much cheaper products plus special methods to further break down my baits even more favorably. This type of preparation stretches the short and long-term effects of my homemade base mixes much further! I often bulk them up with much cheaper ingredients to save on cost and these additives and ingredients are broken down into much more attractive soluble and very digestible compounds such as organic acids and fermenting sugars - among other goodies!
Another example everyone can consider is when I used certain homemade bioactive compound special edges to hook the biggest fish in Rainbow lake; when this fish was at 84 pounds back in around 2006. Spice and herb oleoresins and various other essential oil components (plus complete essential oils in combination) were included in the preparation of my homemade baits for that extremely highly pressured big fish water. Special homemade boosted particles and ground baits preparations plus homemade boilies and boosted ready made pellets were used in this instance. All this sounds like a lot of preparation but it always seriously pays off to make the extra effort at any water where people are well known to blank on and where your goal is to tempt the biggest wary fish!
The amount of competitive edges you can produce for yourself to get around what I call carp danger reference points conditioned into carp by past and present popular carp fishing bait forms, and baiting and fishing practices are legion (but you need to be thinking differently and use your imagination! Ultimately you are never taking a risk in being different with bait because everything is priceless feedback and anything that might seem like a mistake is actually a solution to crack a different fishing problem - 99 percent of the time!
I make my homemade baits with a big focus on protein and amino acids stimulation effects both internally and externally but I do not always design baits for the long-term and instant baits by definition can be both long and short-term for many reasons. With top quality protein additives and ingredients it can be very hard to cut costs but it is possible with enough knowledge of bait and you do not always have to group together to reduce personal costs or to get bargains in bulk. It is a fact that using high levels of the most potent substances in just your hook baits are often all you need to achieve your goals, and creative uses of cheaper but potently-boosted particles, natural baits, pellets and creatively-boosted particles as free baits are very often successful in guerrilla-type fishing approaches.
Certainly not all of the most impactful protein-related carp feeding triggers fall into the bracket of expensive complex amino acids (and other amines etc,) and certain natural feeding triggers can be very cheap indeed! In fact you can make extremely competitive homemade baits that do compete extremely well against ready made baits but with no fish protein, no milk protein and no sign of conventional expensive ready made amino acid complexes at all. With the right bait making knowledge you can make all these and more including making homemade flavors, flavour components and unique flavour-infused oils too all for yourself and save a fortune!
Now you might think that knowing much more about fish senses in regards to exploiting them with bait substances is not really needed today with the amount of commercial quality bait available now. But I can assure you that if saving a fortune in your bait costs (literally for life,) improving your catches, and staying ahead of the fish and competing anglers are your goals, then this fish senses and bait substances exploitation (of all fish senses) knowledge all combined is a huge advantage over less aware anglers!
This is something very many anglers will never understand nor appreciate the true power of because so many will simply be lazy and ignore it - so offering you a huge gaping area to exploit in order to always stay ahead!
