what is the best bait for carp fishing?


Worms work well, but it also GREATLY depends on the kind of carp we’re talking about, but for commons, corn works well along with dough. A good, less expensive dough is a dog food dough, replace the flour with finely ground up dog food, add water, make sure it’s a consistency that will stay on the hook. A simple way to find out is to get a hook and put the dough on the hook, place the hook with the dough in a five gallon bucket, wight for about half an hour, when you look at the hook the dough should still be on, if it is not, than you need make it thicker. but the problem is is to getting the dough into a powdery consistency. Maggots, also play an important roll in carp fishing, all you needs a simple bobber, split shot, and a bobber, fish around reeds and Lilly pads foe best results. Corn flakes in soaked milk made into a round ball and put on a hook the a bobber and split shot also works very well, you can see if it stays on the hook following the the same proses and with the dog food dough.

    I have heard that dough balls work well. You make a dough ball by taking a piece of bread and make it into a ball.
