Homemade Carp Boilies With The Best Big Fish Bait Ingredients!

By Tim Richardson


Catching more big carp is much easier when you know some very stimulating details about bait components, how fish sense your baits, how to manipulate fish physiology to make fish want to eat our baits more and more! Many of the questions anglers ask about baits and fishing are pretty irrelevant compared to some of the most important which are so often over-looked because the angler is so conditioned to thinking like a commercially-manipulated angler instead of thinking like a fish which is far superior of course! When your thinking about baits choices and how to manipulate fish senses and behaviours in our favour against them begins with the fish themselves you have incredible potential power compared to anglers who merely follow the herd!

So in the beginning when considering bait at all, why start of with bait itself at all when it is far more productive by starting off with taking a much better look at the fish?! Relatively very few anglers understand carp in detail so it is no surprise they have little idea how their baits might possibly work to attract fish to take baited hooks inside their mouths. But when you understand this and the power this provides you with to use against competing anglers with little or no knowledge or insight regarding this incredibly vital aspect of fishing you will be truly amazed!

When speaking to many fellow anglers it is clear that the vast majority are dependant on expensive readymade boilies and pellets. When you are dependant upon readymade baits instead of producing your own, your bait budget is to a very large extent decided by the pricing of readymade baits. When anglers are dependant on readymade baits they are completely at the mercy of others to decide their bait modes of action and competitiveness over other baits, and cost; which is not necessarily an ideal situation to be in!

So set your own bait budget, cut your costs in advance and not let someone else decide you're spending for you - and save yourself a genuine fortune! Readymade baits cost so much each year or even per fishing session that undercutting these costs by making your own potent baits is very easy. Of course knowing significant details of things like how and why fish behave in the presence of substances they are sensitive to and so on, and how to exploit such things to get fish hooked on your own unique bait recipes repeatedly again and again is extremely productive!

So what kind of mistakes do beginners in bait-making do that can be avoided? Personally I have found that well over 80 percent of my own homemade readymade baits catch fish right from the first cast on a range of waters, (this has been over a period of 31 years.) Some waters really do require more specially designed baits for various reasons including the need to out-compete other baits or to avoid using bait ingredients and substances used previously, perhaps in many readymade baits, that fish are now feed too cautiously on or will avoid completely due to fear of being hooked!

Using personal preferences, second or third-hand opinions about baits and flavours etc, and most of all, using your human perceptions of bait substances as a guide to bait making is a common mistake of beginners. Why limit the success of your baits by getting personally involved by second-guessing what carp are sensitive to when you can discover all this in advance of making your baits and be certain all your bait substances in whatever combinations will be most effective? Focus on the fish first and you will think like a fish and not an angler (which is a very severely limited perspective!)

Some really great bait substances are not necessarily effective used on their own in water, but work at their peak in synergistic ways alongside other bait substances to produce maximum effects on fish. Certain bait substances can be termed habit-forming and these do not have to be anything exotic or unusual; I would include essential amino acids and certain non-essential acids in this category. So many carp angler have somehow become conditioned to think that if their bait has very little flavours or smells that they can detect that their bait is going to be less effective, but the truth can very easily be the opposite! In terms of linking fish senses and bait tastes, flavours and aromas for instance, carp can sense substances in solution down to just a few parts in a million and detect subtle energy fields in many ways in effect, so including almost any substance in your bait will be detected to some degree even it you cannot smell it or taste it or even if it supposedly inert in terms of our comparatively extremely dull human senses!

Carp can adapt all the time and sense new substances that are completely foreign to them and their environment and this is no surprise as this is how they have been able to evolve and exploit completely new potential food sources and monopolise them to supply their basic diet and vital energy needs in order to survive. Training carp to feed on your baits is just like training dogs using the rewards your baits offer that come in many forms in instant and more longer-lasting ways and these can be leveraged in creating more competitive baits with unique advantages over competing baits that my lack these benefits and rewards. Your choices of baits substances will directly impact upon carp hormones released when being sensed and eaten, and the behaviours resulting from these releases - so you can have incredible power over carp to make them feed frantically or in more leisurely and relaxed ways; but there is much more hidden power in making baits than even this!
