In winter, the key to successful crucian carp fishing lies in the choice of bait and groundbait. Here’s my special recipe:
Mix equal parts of breadcrumbs, cornmeal, and crushed hemp seeds. These ingredients provide good texture and a strong aroma to attract the carp.
To enhance the scent and taste, add a few drops of vanilla extract or anise oil. These flavorings are irresistible to crucian carp and can make a difference in catching them.
For added attraction, include finely chopped worms or maggots. These live baits release powerful attractants in the water, tempting the carp even more.
Gradually add water while mixing until the mixture holds together but remains slightly crumbly.
Pack the bait into a feeder or create small balls that can be easily cast into the water.
Remember, in cold temperatures, fish are less active, so it’s crucial to create a strong scent trail to lure the carp to your fishing spot. Use this bait with confidence and enjoy a successful winter fishing session!
