There are many carp and catfish recipes but some ingredients and combinations make all the difference between catching the biggest fish, or none at all! Some ingredients and additives, liquids and flavour components really seriously put you ahead, (as in Mainline Cell boilies!) Read on to find out more and transform your homemade baits and your big fish catches fast!
Bread, peanut butter and Marmite paste baits are about as simple and as instant as one could possibly imagine a carp bait to be; and this combination really works very well indeed! This is especially when such bait is made with added emulsified mixed nut oil for instance, (or using hemp oil plus additional betaine for the colder months!) In fact in many ways homemade Marmite paste is even better than expensive readymade boilies like Mainline Cell!
This is because of the characteristic paste openness and soluble form achieved by blending Marmite with other suitably soluble additives and ingredients. Additionally Marmites active properties and formless nature can tempt even the wariest of carp into making a mistake! Such bait is totally instant and requires zero pre-baiting which is a common feature of the truly great baits!
One of the simplest alternative bait recipes I have used is based upon hydrolysed salmon protein liquid which is an extremely viscous product and helps binds bait together yet has excellent soluble nutritionally stimulating factors. When making a homemade Cell-type boilie, this additive in powder and liquid form really makes a big difference, as do tuna meal for instance and squid meal. All of these deliver alternative amino acid profiles compared to the often-used Cell readymade and really give you an edge over wary fish!
Other aspects of such a recipe are gram flour (chick pea flour) used instead of the commonly-used soya flour. I have used ordinary white or whole meal wheat flour for years since before the days when the hard form durum wheat (semolina) can into fashion. Try using this find white powder instead of full fat or de-fatted semolina.
Another aspect is premium grade salmon oil, emulsified using a liquid lecithin at 10 percent rate per volume of oil. I aim to use a maximum of for instance 20 milliliters of oil per kilogram of base mix. Another part is hydrolysed salmon protein powder; for example used at for instance a 50 grams per kilogram base mix rate.
Micronised maize is another aspect; it binds and hardens baits. But I only use a low level of this. Maize is one of the commonest-used bait ingredients. Another part of this recipe is sesame seeds in whole and in creamed form. The creamed form is called Tahini and is excellent. I find Tahini mixed with Marmite is an excellent blend in simple or more complex baits.
Betaine is one of the most talked about but under-used additives. I use it as much for its internal properties as anything else. Choose forms which upon adding to cold water, disappear instantly!
Marmite is one ingredient many old school anglers have been using in all their baits for years to make their baits enzyme-active due to the probiotic nature of Marmite (yeast extract.) When teamed with molasses meal and gram flour or yellow pea protein for example, you have something very special going on which is very similar to that which occurs within Cell readymade baits, (and is equally as productive!)
Molasses meal is a fantastic ingredient which has been used for decades and can be exploited in literally any bait! I really rate it, for its activation properties of baits, its feed-inducing betaine content, its special pigments and more! Alternative examples of flours to use include flaxseed flour, tapioca flour, potato starch and corn starch. These all work, together as binders.
To make your bait active which improves the solubility and digestion and stimulatory properties and vital functions of your bait you can incorporate and multi-purpose enzyme compound, such as that supplied by Feedstimulants (online,) which has a range of feed stimulants and palatability factors, enhancers, emulsified essential oils and much more. (This is a range purposely based on and inspired by my carp and catfish bait recipe secrets formulation ebooks series.)
One of the earliest carp baits I ever made in the seventies was custard powder paste. Elements of it included corn starch. It also included caseins, sugars and salts, and vanilla flavour. Wheat gluten is also very useful. It used to be a standard part of special paste baits in the seventies before milk proteins really took over binding functions. They were predominantly soluble pastes and were and still are exceptionally effective.
Many people ask me about my unique no-egg bait approach and comment on the formlessness of my baits and the diversity of the surfaces and textures I produce to fool fish thus making it much more difficult for them to sort out hook baits. But really what matters is what my baits are composed of and that which they are giving out into solution in the water column.
These substances and concentrations in combination pre-stimulate fish and pre-condition their receptors. Such aspects are vital because once my baits have been detected and fish are pre-stimulated and already in the early stages of feeding behaviours even before finding the physical baits, then once fish are in the immediate proximity of my hook baits then they really have passed beyond normal feeding caution already!
The purpose of free baits to programme receptor sites in advance of fish actually investigating your hook baits is of paramount importance and the true purpose of free baits in my experience. This is just one aspect which I cover in very great depth in my one to one personal bait tuition, quite apart from how to make baits alive and keep them active in real time as you are fishing hook baits and applying free baits, and such probiotic and prebiotic aspects seriously make all the difference to catches.
I have found after 25 years of using HNV and BNV food bait theory that there is another paradigm, a newer one which defeats the old, and this is a new way of designing and applying, evolving and specifically testing baits for guaranteed success, which Ive been developing and refining and proving through my bait tuition and ebook readers for over 8 years.
This is part of what I teach to those people with an open mind in my 1 to 1 bait tuition personal one day intensives. The people that generate the best questions are often complete beginners to bait making because these people have fewest preconceptions and the least limited mindsets!
Over the past 10 years I have aimed to get the message of the true power of making your own totally uniquely potent homemade baits out there across the world. This has been via my Facebook page and website, my Baitbigfish youtube bait secrets and bait recipe videos as well as through my Carp food column called Why do carp like that?” in Crafty Carper magazine, which Frank Warwick really encouraged me to do.
Instant flavoured baits and food baits are not the only bait paradigms and there are more and these are seriously good for the fish; which is why they are so very effective!
