liquidised baits

[jools]

After yesterdays match and not catching a lot i spent some time watching the guy next door who was catching chub just the other side of an overhanging branch next to me..he was cupping in some fluidised additive and indeed ive seen a few anglers doing the same now i know you can buy ready made fluidised additives but does any of you fluidise anything to use as an attractant eg..fluidised maggots(boke boke remind me never to make a strawberry smoothie after doing that lol) or fluidised worm(bigger boke boke)
sweetcorn or indeed anything else be interesting to know (Glad that drink in the icon aint red lol)

I've used liquidised baits on and off for some time, they can be very effective, sometimes not so.
I like liquidised sweetcorn, aka Monkey Puke, with crushed hemp. I have also made groundbait using liquidised maggots, worked well.
This time of year I would be careful about using too much til the water warms up and the fish feed more.
You can always add an extra attractor to your mix, depends on what works on your waters, and even when you find one, go easy.

corn and worm are great. loads of smell but hardly any actual food items. If you cup in a dozen grains of corn jools when they are gone they are gone. If you liquidise the same dozen grains you get all the juices in a cloud pulling fish in far quicker. If you then use a corn hookbait the chances are it will be sucked up far quicker. TRy it on your next pleasure session then in a match. Most of the big carp boys do a similar thing by zig rigging. By spodding loads of tiny items to an area and a suspension forms attracting the fish in. Most use a piece of boyant coloured foam fished off a lead at various depths and the carp just suck up anything to see if its edible. Most fish in a frenzy will do the same. Try squeezing out the kernel first so the corn just wafts about naturally. you might start off with small silver fish but keep feeding the big uns will come.
