Carp fishing is such a popular and very competitive sport today that the edges and tips you can discover that give you more bites and that also save you valuable money in these hard times are seriously needed! So here you will be introduced to some hard-hitting facts, experiences and insights proven to catch you more big carp that save you money and seriously give you much more control over your bait and fishing costs and will even help you catch more fish while using less bait!
Consider this; you put an old bait on the bluntest big hook you can find attached to thick monofilament line and fling it out almost anywhere on your carp water; it might seem strange but it would be no surprise if this caught some very big fish indeed due possibly to this unusual rig behaving in an unusual way, the big heavy hook being less easily ejected, the fish being all too ready to flee and hook itself on the blunt hook and the old bait being new and completely unique and so less of a potential threat! This might sound crazy but not so; having caught big fish testing this out proved to me that in fact an unusual bait is far more important than just a cursory look at the relative importance of fish location, a sharp hook or simple conventional rig design might suggest and that there is far more to this than first meets the carp senses!
When testing one friends successful ground bait mix by feeding fish 3 versions of it in a stock pond at Horseshoe Lake the difference between the carp responses to his bait and my 2 new versions were staggering. In fact my friend was a bailiff and was a top rod on that lake using his own recipe of homemade spod mix. But when introduced to stock pond carp beside my versions of his own spod mix, his mix was completely ignored and was left untouched, and meanwhile carp actually head-butted the bottom in search of the other new versions, (this was even after they had all been consumed!)
This was such a revelation to all of us that witnessed this test that it took us quite a while to accept what had happened and the strength of the reaction because after all, here was a proven consistently successful spod mix failing to even get nibbled whist in the presence of 2 other identically-based baits but with added extras. Of course I was expecting a strong feeding response to the substances added to the new spod mixes, but certainly did not really expect them to result in the original being ignored as if it did not even exist. Now if you have ever fished next to someone who is catching fish and you cannot get a bite on your formerly successful bait this could well be part of the reason and perhaps we all need to seriously ask ourselves if our baits are doing or not doing various things they are supposedly designed to do!
Baits vary by huge margins when it comes to how well they perform in various situations against competing baits and ultimately the job of any bait is simply to get an anglers hook inside the mouth of a fish to hook it but this is far more complex in many more ways than this appears while also being pretty simple! The fact that the vast percentage of anglers free baits get regularly consumed with ease by carp without them ever getting hooked is also a hugely important area to investigate because this is not simply about effective rigs at all and very much about truly maximising bait performance in the first place! There is no coincidence that so many old nasty smelling baits found in the bottom of rucksacks (and put on a rig as a last resort,) so frequently catch so-called surprise carp, very soon after being cast out during a bite-less session, and it must be remembered that carp can sample baits using various senses without ever touching them or even mouthing them at all.
The number of carp on any water that respond far better to new and unique baits that have not been experienced by carp before shows the extent to which carp instinctive cautionary defence mechanisms for survival operate and homemade baits and ground baits are especially ideal for enabling any ordinary angler to keep ahead of the crowd and pressured carp!
By being able to make your own baits and adapt readymade baits you control many vital aspects of bait, from the ways they impact on carp senses, rate of metabolism and feeding and digestion, to your all important bait cost itself! Picture the effect on carp of being able to introduce free baits with far high levels of natural feed-triggering substances than bait companies can afford to sell profitably and the results you will be able to achieve! Probably the most obvious example for this cold water period is the possibility of including far higher levels of the famous green lipped mussel extract and betaine hydrochloride for instance which are very well proven to keep carp feeding more strongly and more repeatedly for longer, thus giving you far more chances of bites and hooked fish...
Just the popularity of one substance such as betaine shows that one substance that carp are naturally highly stimulated by can have a big improvement in catches, but there are many other substances to exploit in many various ways. Just as betaine and corn steep liquor are used in powder and soluble liquid forms you can apply this to a vast multitude of other substances you might never have considered before. The successful permutations and combinations are truly endless always keeping you ahead of those ever changing and adapting carp.
Carp bait success in many ways is about the efficient maintenance of a concentration of feeding triggers and attractors etc around your hook baits. Anyone who fishes with glugged broken boilies in glug-filled PVA bags, and compares their catch results to using whole readymade baits straight from the bag (and used alone in PVA bags,) will be shocked by the difference! But perhaps the most sobering thought about making your own homemade baits and ground baits is not just the impact they can have versus popular conventional baits, but the degree you can control their cost and produce incredibly effective baits to your own recipes, with far higher levels of potent ingredients than bait companies can offer profitably!
