    I like making a dough like bait, I’ll mix beef liver, ground sausage, and ground fish, mashed rice, oatmeal and a bit of flour and let that mix sit in the fridge a couple days so the mash gets nice and soaked with those juices and I’ll stuff some in cheese cloth or those plastic dough bait balls with the holes in them. If u really want it to stink tho u could let it sit in the sun for a day and put it in a cooler on ice in the garage till u go fishing 😂 u won’t want that in your house I promise

    I always use live blue gill with a giant bobber. I learned not to set the hook right away. Let them run w the bait and as soon as the stop give them time to eat the bait then set hook

    Bluegill is way cheaper bait to use and is my favorite. Put 2 hotdogs in a blender to make a paste and add flour to make dough bait. works wonders if you add a bit of vegtible oil, garlic powder and onion powder for catfish. Its by far the most cheap bait

    Great video, but when i heard him say that carp have delicate lips i had an asthma attack. Either the common carp in the US will get bitched by the common carp in Russia, or this guy is full of shit because while cleaning a carp i caught (yes we eat them) i spent a good 3 minutes trying with my full force to cut through the lip with my sharp as shit knife.

  • @BitesandStrikesFishing
    @BitesandStrikesFishing11 күн бұрын

    There’s a clip in the video where I point out a hole in the lips where the hook tore the flesh. I wouldn’t be surprised if the carp in your area are a different species or even have different diets. I’ve caught carps in lakes where they feed of muscles and clams and those carp have thicker callus lips from digging through hard shells.
