Bait Research Help - survey complete

Perhaps this is another example of how Carp fishing is being seen as the only angling way.

 

Ain't that the truth.

 

I very very occasionally buy comercial baits but I honestly don't know and don't care which brands.

My baits come from the supermarket, the fishmarket in Birmingham and the local oriental food emporium - who sell freshwater deadbaits in the shape of red tail tinfoil barbs and cheap squid for my sea fishing.

I recently stocked up on luncheon meat from the 99p shop and hemp from the petshop for a bit of autumn bait fishing.

 

I don't really care very much about advertising and branding in UK angling industry other than in so far as to find it so pervasive in the press that I no longer buy any angling papers or magazines.

Species caught in 2020: Barbel. European Eel. Bleak. Perch. Pike.

All,

 

Perhaps the first question should have been, "are you in the UK?"

 

I agree with Emma two too. The broad scope of continents(sp?) and species on AN wasn't taken into consideration very well. I wonder if he even realized I am in North America? Although I am a species specific carp fisherman my number one bait is grits. And, "bait" is what you would call "method mix". The object used on the hair or hook to catch the carp is called the "pickup". Only a few purists as "Eruo" anglers use boilies. They, boilies, are usually far to slow (although they may(?) be "best" for specimen carp).

 

Even purists are developing a Euro/American style that mix and match what is "working" on any particular session. Fortunately, the object is still to catch carp.

The survey wasn't especially well constructed, as some of you have contributed. It relied upon a certain 'type' of angler to fit the questions. I occasionally buy deadbaits ('ammo and 'baitbox'? are the brands) other than that it's Sainsbury's or Morrison's fish counter for mackerel, sprats, sardine, herring etc. A couple of times a year some green Giant sweetcorn too (to catch bait with).

 

Yes one of my main bait suppliers is Asda from Sweetcorn, tins of Tuna, Luncheon Meat, Bacon Grill, Desert Whip to dead baits for predator fishing. Don't think that was the answer they were after.

Thanks for your feedback,

The questionnaire is designed to ask simple, non-ambiguous questions and has been piloted at commercial UK fisheries (and revised several times following misunderstanding of terms etc. and it was designed to capture "brand" consumers). It is designed to fit in with a model of brand equity which is being supported by a 12 month survey of advertising brands in the UK. All respondents are placed geographically by IP address which is automatically logged by the survey. There is a triangulation of qualitative/quantitative data within the methodology so opinions "outside" the geographical remit of the study are still valid and may offer insight into the individuals decision making process. These models have been traditionally developed along cognitive psychological lines, but there is evidence to suggest a low-involvement theory which is supported by high volumes of advertising. There are no hard and fast rules here. I hope this helps

Kind Regards

Roger
