erm u got the same maggots twice there Nugg.

Ive caught carp on kebab meat from a doner, full of chile sauce because i ran out of bait.

And ive caught them on pasta from a vindaloo, does that mean spicy is good.

 

The water was quite coloured the next day, although there had been no rain at all.

Maybe Newt can help? Aren't "Wheaties" an old standard carp bait in the US? Don't know what they're like though, but they could be similar,

I cant see why weetabix wont work.

Most PELLETS have some form of wheat in them as it is a cheap bulking agent.

The pellets I have at home (50kg of them in two sizes, 4mm and 8.5mm) have 60% wheat glueten.

also stewed wheat is a very underused killer bait in the summer.

Crushed Weetabix,good for keeping maggots in and taking away the ammonia smell they can get when they sweat!

I took some burgers with me one day, and one of those disposable barbecues (arent they great). Like a pig, i cooked up all the burgers, and couldnt eat them all. Once the leftovers had cooled, i cut them up, hair rigged a piece, and put the rest in a PVA bag. Within seconds (less than 30), i had hooked into a 10lb carp.

I also had some rolls left, so you know how it is, waste not want not, i got the old float controller out and hooked up a big piece of floating crust, sesame seeds and all, and only went and had me another.

Ive had Carp on floating Snapjacks, BBQ flavour.
