strangest bait ever used?

[BoozleBear]

I have caught on...

 

tin foil (mackerel)

earwig (roach and perch)

smoked makcerel (pike and eel)

slug (perch)

 

And I know people who have caught on...

 

A bogey (somebody on here! can't remember what fish)

Fruit M&Ms (carp)

Tutti Fruti sweets (carp)

Bn having a bit of success latley on the lakes with meat flavoured angel delight gives the meat a very different texture to anything i have used before

 

The strawberry flavour gives the meat a sort of turkish delight look\feel and a very sticky texture seems to work wonders

 

Used this tactic on monday jus fished in the edge on a very miserable day and ended up with 4 carp for over 30lbs wen everyone on the lake cud'nt even get a bite on maggots by the way i was using a pole aswel

Sounds interesting Big Tinca - is that meat flavoured with Angel Delight or Angel Delight made up with liquidised meat?

And what flavour Angel Delight (I'm guessing strawberry)?

The bogey was post #5 in http://www.anglersnet.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=12290, in an old thread on this topic.

Have you ever eaten a proper Bakewell *pudding*, Alan? Far too good to use as bait (no cherry on top, mind)!

I've caught dace on silver paper and once nearly landed a pike on a bait dropper - it grabbed it on the retrieve and hung on for dear life until I brought it to the net when it eventaully managed to shake it free!

I'm afraid school dinners scared me off for life!

 

As for Bakewell itself, I drove through it about 2 weeks ago, and the traffic jams were a sufficient deterrent to preclude further investigation!
