salokcinnodrog Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Slugs, thats not a Strange Bait, that one of my Stalking Specials Try Malteasers, Jelly Babies, Cola Bottles and goodness knows how many other sweets. Baked Beans, Sugar Puffs, all work. Think there was another thread not that long ago on strange baits, I'll try to find it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanecarp1 Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Mars bars work well to, cut a quarter of the mars bar off and stick it on the end of your rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanecarp1 Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 But maybe refridgerate it or freeze it before use, you dont want it melting in your hands do ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

666carpcatcher Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 i have seen people fishing with lettuce for grassies which was all a bit strange! There's a lake in Wychnor (staffordshire) that you can catch the carp with grass every cast an inch away from the bank Come to think of it i caught on a plain hook there aswell takes abit longer for the bites but still caught Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgart Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 There is a female carp angler in sweden whoose name is Inger Nilsson. She wrote an article last year or the year before about alternative baits. During her "test" she caught carp on raspberries, mushrooms, candy and some more interesting stuff. She also happened to be my cooking-teacher a couple of years ago Her husband (or boyfriend, cant remember if they are married) is also a very good specimenhunter. His name is Kristian Nilsson.
