Carp Fishing Bait FAQs
Do I need to choose different fishing bait for different times of the year/different seasons?
Not necessarily, however some baits can be less or more effective in lower temperatures. High fat, high oil baits, like halibut pellets, heavy grade fishmeal boilies can be harder for the fish to digest, or the oils congeal at lower temperatures, preventing the attractors to leach out of the bait, reducing the ability for the attractors to leach out.
In summer these baits work well into the autumn but once water temperatures drop, nut / seed based boilies, or those on a milk protein base mix, along with hemp, corn, maggots will be easier for the fish to digest.
Should I choose boilies, sweetcorn, pellets, natural baits or something else?
This would strongly come down to the consideration of the presence of nuisance species in the lake. Particles such as corn, pellets and naturals like maggots offer a lot of appeal to a carp, but are far easier for smaller species such as roach / rudd to peck away at and clear your bait out, as well as the hookbait. Boilies Boilies are far more selective for carp and easier to apply with the aid of a throwing stick or catapult.
What is the benefit of using pellets as opposed to cheaper options such as sweetcorn and bread?
Similar to above, this would strongly come down to the consideration of the presence of nuisance species in the lake. Particles such as corn, pellets and naturals like maggots offer a lot of appeal to a carp, but are far easier for smaller species such as roach / rudd to peck away at and clear your bait out, as well as the hookbait. Boilies Boilies are far more selective for carp and easier to apply with the aid of a throwing stick or catapult.
Can local conditions affect which bait I should use?
Local conditions would not impact the bait choice, barring say as to whether you are fishing on the surface or on the bottom. However, weather conditions may impact what colours are more effective. Also, carp, like ourselves can be picky, and a bait colour that works one day, may not be as effective the next.
Can pellet baits be used with a PVA bag?
Yes, any dry baits, or baits free from water can be used in PVA.
Fishmeal, fruity, nut-based or milk-protein boilies?
This is again personal choice, but heavy grade fishmeal boilies can be harder for the fish to digest, or the oils congeal at lower temperatures, preventing the attractors to leach out of the bait, reducing the ability for the attractors to leach out. In summer these baits work well into the autumn but once water temperatures drop, nut / seed based boilies, or those on a milk protein base mix will be easier for the fish to digest.
