Baiting Campaign?

tezza01 · #1 02-01-2010, 07:08 PM

Hello there,

I am currently fishing a lake which is about three and a half acres in size, weedy and absolutly full of natural food, there is no boilies allowed, or nuts of any kind.

I would like to do a bit of a pre-baiting on the lake to try and get them onto something a little different but am struggling with what to use, the lake is mainly fished with match tactics, maggots, sweetcorn, meat etc.. So I want to get them used to something different that hopefully only I will be doing at the time.

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Yes, you can use seeds, the only bans are, no boilies, or nuts.

Thanks for the advice about the ccmores, i will look into it, I would prefere something i can get quite cheaply that i can feed in for a good dew months so could potentionally be quite pricey.. more advice appreciated.

pigeon conditioning corn big bag a tenner

just soak with boiling water for a few hrs .

add to it chopped worms , maggots . corn in fact any thing you want including chilies ,
then fish on top of it with a bait that you have mixed into it

Thanks alot Nick I never thought of that, sounds like a good idea, cheap and effective i shall be looking into it.. also thanks ben, will have a look into some more particles i can use, i am thinking now i can make up a seed mix with some different particles in then fish one of the particles over the top, should be a winner if i can get them going on that, thanks guys..

Include chick peas these are cheap and take on colour and flavour easy.

The only thing with particals is most people will be useing them.
If you use pellets and matching paste it would be more diffrent to what others are useing.

Again thanks for the advice, whats the best way to use the paste as a hookbait? because i've tried using paste before but can't quite get it right to use on a hair or hook.. thanks..

try a paste spring on the hair or even a large boilie stop I find that if the paste has something to get "hold" of then it will normally stay on the hair
