welder Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Mart, it's sometimes thinking outside the box like this that brings good results. It can't hurt to try, mate. Let us know how you get on. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpy86 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Perhaps brown rice may be better than white, seeing as it's a fair bit glupy'er than White when cooked? Just a thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 and it resembles dead maggots which will get the carp rooting about, seen many people use it mate but for some reason keep saying i will but never have lol. give it a bit of flavour as well.

mart10 Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 yeah brown rice may be the one and like you say Gaz looks like dead maggots and carp love dead maggots and with a bit of flavor it could be worth a try thanks lads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcarp Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Make sure its cooked nice and al dente for them! They do like a crunch. It works for well bud, and it takes flavour really well. It doesnt cloud up as much as you might think, the starch seems to stay quite gloopy. I aways use a milk powder with it to, that gets a nice cloud going!

ouchthathurt Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 dammit my edge is out!!! i always add rice to my particle mix, it takes on the flavours of hemp really well, i tend to boil it until is really really soft, it will darken in hemp water, so the white rice is not really a problem. its a good "bulker" for a spod mix. just remember to ensure your mix is full of plenty of different sized particles, after all when the carp become preoccupied with tiny foodstuffs, they can ignore your 12ml boilie ledgered over the top - rice holds its fluids so its a PVA trickster... other tesco spod mix... rice sweetcorn lentils chick peas peanuts black eyed peas haricot beans broad beans soup mix soya semolenia tuna custard powder oyster sauce seaweed barley pearl barley theres loads, next time your in tesco - look in the nuts/peas/seeds isle - everything is a possible carp bait to the thinking carper (not DF...) ouchthathurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart10 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 thanks for the tip mate its something Ive never used before and it just got me thinking while i was cooking meal one day last week i do fish a lot of partial hook baits and just thought it would be something different to try on my local water because i don't think its been tried before so hopefully it will work thanks again and good look with season a head mart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
