Cat food as bait for carp

The last ten or two years have seen a technical boom in the fishing world. Not only have the latest innovations in the fishing industry become available to the domestic fisherman, but thanks to the Internet, the vast majority of fishermen daily replenish their skills, learn something new, try and test in practice previously unknown methods of fishing. In principle, this is how it should be, thanks to the World Wide Web, I myself discovered quite interesting methods of fishing, learned the peculiarities of carp fishing, and simply, having registered on several fishing forums, began to correspond and exchange experiences with fishermen like me , which are located thousands of kilometers from where I live.

But what’s interesting is that, along with the enormous benefits of the Internet and the availability of gear, fishermen seem to be unobtrusively made to understand that it is better to buy everything in a store. What to do yourself. So, sometimes I practice carp fishing. It is clear that the gear that was available during the USSR is not even close to the arsenal of modern carp fishing that can be purchased today. I will not delve into the intricacies of the gear, but will only focus on bait and some additives to the bait, which can be used for excellent fishing, catching excellent crucian carp and carp, and if you have bream and roach, you can also train them.

To begin with, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that in fishing stores you can buy such beautiful bags of bait, the bags are painted and painted, and the advertisement says that you just need to prepare it correctly (I have already told you how to mix bait on the shore, perhaps I will cover it again in the next reviews this topic), and the fish is on your hook. I will not argue; on the contrary, I will only agree with these statements. Of course, here you need to understand that the bite depends not only on the bait and the quality of the bait and attachment, there are many factors, but still, store-bought bait works.

But...it costs some money, and besides, for me personally, an ordinary ordinary fisherman with an average budget, it’s somehow inconvenient to spend money on some kind of mixture. I'm used to doing everything myself. In addition, in my understanding, hand-made tackle, bait prepared by yourself, bring no less pleasure than the process of fishing itself. Well, I don’t understand fishing when an angler is fishing, like at a resort, when he takes bait out of store-bought glass jars, etc. - that’s not my fishing.

So, I noticed that by mixing regular food for cats and dogs with river (coastal) sand, adding vegetable oil, bread, and flour to it, you can get an extremely positive composition of homemade bait, which attracts fish no worse than factory bait.

For these purposes, I crush dry food with a wooden stick, this can be done at home, and I simply mix the finished powder with sand, adding a little water so that bait balls can be made. You won't believe it, but bait works.

I learned about these properties of cat food by accident - after buying food for my cat, I had a couple of pads left in my pocket. And on one of the fishing trips I just threw them into the water. Small things began to greedily attack these pads, and I simply concluded that they could be used for preparing bait and baits. In general, if you read the composition of cat food, it becomes clear that fish will like it too. By the way, if you knead this food into dough, you can get a unique exclusive attachment. I can’t say anything about what type of food to use, since everyone must determine the best one for themselves, because everything depends on the reservoir, fish, weather and many other different conditions. Another important thing is that for 100-150 rubles you can buy so many of these pillows by weight that this stuff will be enough for the whole daylight hours, and maybe even more.

So, don’t be lazy to experiment and try new things. Perhaps the best and most effective bait and groundbait are literally in plain sight, but you simply don’t notice it.

Kitty, kitty, fish. Catching carp with cat food

Over the past decades, the fishing industry has experienced a technical boom. In addition to the fact that Russian fishermen now have access to newfangled innovations in the fishing industry, plus thanks to the ubiquitous Internet, fishermen are constantly expanding their skills and knowledge, learning something new, and experiencing in practice previously unknown fishing options.

In this publication, we will not delve into the intricacies of the equipment, but will talk about complementary feeding and several bait options, with which you can do excellent fishing, catch solid crucian carp and good carp, as well as other fish, for example, roach or bream.

Who would have thought that animal food is a very catchy thing!

Everyone knows that store-bought bait mixtures have their own price, and not a small one. Most domestic fishermen with an average income feel sorry for spending their hard earned money on such things. Therefore, the majority of domestic fishing enthusiasts prepare complementary foods with their own hands. For our fishermen, gear, bait and bait, made personally, prepared with their own hands, bring pleasure no less than the fishing procedure itself.

Well, one of the very catchy things that most fish species react to is cat (dog) food. Who would have thought!

On hook

Animal food has a lot of useful and catchable qualities

Is it possible to use dry animal food as bait for catching crucian carp, carp, carp, bream and other fish? Not only is it possible, but it is also necessary. Cat food as a fishing bait has a number of advantages:

• attractive aroma;
• does not fall to the bottom, so it is noticeable to fish;
• On a muddy bottom it does not sink, but remains in the water column;
• can be stored for a long time without problems;
• available everywhere;
• has a lot of flavors - a wide field for experimentation.

It is best to attach the hook using the hair rig method directly onto the main line. Hooks with hair can be purchased at any fishing store. You can also use fishing line as hair. The bait must be pierced with an awl or a thick needle, and then put on a leka with a stopper. The fish will suck up the food pellet and hook onto a nearby, freely dangling hook.

It is much more difficult to place a pad of food on the hook tip. Most likely, you will have to pierce it with an awl (needle). If the granules are in the form of rings, then you need to put several granules on the hook, securing them with maggots. It will be able to reliably hold the food on the hook.

In bait

Pet food can also be used as an additive in complementary foods to add an attractive flavor to fish.

To do this, dry food needs to be crushed using a rolling pin or masher, vegetable oil, bread crumb and flour must be added, and on the shore, the complementary food must be mixed with river soil, adding the required amount of water from the reservoir. after that you need to form regular balls for complementary feeding. The resulting complementary food will be no worse than store-bought food; it works great!

Canned cat food

Canned cat food can also be used as bait

Also, one of the best summer baits for catching carp and carp is canned pet food. Canned pieces are much denser, have a stronger aroma, and stick well to the hook.

Results...

Using the right animal food, you can have excellent fishing, catch solid crucian carp and good carp, as well as other fish, such as roach or bream

And in general, if you look at the composition of animal food, it becomes clear why it attracts fish - it often contains aromatic components. Therefore, if you have pets at home, it is easier to take a few pellets of their food for fishing. If there are no animals, then you have a choice - buy a package of animal food or boilies.

In general, if you read the composition of cat food, it becomes clear that fish will like it too. By the way, if you knead this food into dough, you can get a unique exclusive attachment. I can’t say anything about what type of food to use, since everyone must determine the best one for themselves, because everything depends on the reservoir, fish, weather and many other different conditions.

Fish food made from cat food

Over the past two decades, the world of fishing has experienced a technological boom. In addition to the fact that the latest innovations in the fishing industry have become available to Russian fishermen, thanks to the World Wide Web, the majority of fishermen replenish their skills every day, learn something new, try out and experience in practice previously unknown methods of fishing.

Cat food bait will help you catch an enviable catch

Naturally, this is how it should be, most fishermen discovered quite interesting fishing options, learned the peculiarities of catching each specific fish, and even simply by registering on their favorite fishing forum, began to correspond and exchange experiences with colleagues who are thousands of kilometers away from them places to live and fish. And the creation of websites helps advanced fishermen share their experience with colleagues by posting interesting articles and their own photos from fishing trips.

Today we will not delve into the intricacies of the equipment, but will focus on bait and several options for adding to the bait, with which you can have great fishing, catch excellent crucian carp and carp and other fish (bream or roach).

Every fisherman has noticed that there are colorful bags of bait on the shelves of fishing stores. The inscription on each of them says that by preparing this complementary food CORRECTLY, the fish will definitely be on the hook. We will not argue, we agree with this statement. Of course, you should understand that the bite does not depend on the only bait and the quality of the bait, there are many other factors, but still, bait from the store is quite effective.

But store-bought bait has its price, and most ordinary fishermen with average incomes feel sorry for spending their hard-earned money on some kind of mixture. Many people are accustomed to preparing bait with their own hands. For domestic fishermen, hand-made gear, bait and bait prepared independently bring pleasure no less than the fishing process itself.

Well, one day, when I came fishing, I found a handful of cat food pads in my pocket and decided to throw them into the water. Small fish began to aggressively attack the cat food. And I decided to specially prepare fish food using cat food.

Cat food contains ingredients that are attractive to fish.

The cat food needs to be crushed with a rolling pin or a masher, vegetable oil, bread and flour should be added, and already at the reservoir, mix the mixture with river soil, adding a little water from the reservoir. Then you need to mold the most ordinary bait balls. This mixture will be no worse than store bought, it works great!

In general, if you read the composition of cat food, it becomes clear that it will be very attractive to fish. And, if you add crushed food to the dough, you get an effective exclusive attachment. It is difficult to say what kind of food should be used. All this can be determined only by experimenting on each specific body of water. The important thing is that by spending only 120 - 150 rubles, you can buy so much cat food in bulk and prepare so much complementary food, which will be more than enough for the whole day spent fishing.

Cat food as fish bait

Home > Fishing techniques > Cat food as fish bait

The last few decades have seen a real surge in new technologies in the world of fishing. Today's fishermen can take advantage of the latest advances in industry, and the Internet helps them quickly learn all the latest information and techniques. However, this does not mean that only something very technologically advanced and extremely complex, available only for purchase in stores, can be used with great benefit.

Specialized stores are abundantly stocked with, for example, even luxurious-looking bags of bait, and advertising continuously and boldly claims that just preparing them correctly is enough to catch fish with a full guarantee. Naturally, this is not entirely true; the bite and catch are influenced by quite a few factors. Yes, store-bought bait works well, but this does not mean that home-made bait cannot give the same effect. Experienced fishermen often derive pleasure from the process of making bait, comparable to fishing. Fishing is not a resort where you take one thing out of a jar and then another, as if in a store. And many people don’t have an excessive amount of money.

A mixture of the most commonplace cat food (dog food is also suitable, however) with river sand, vegetable oil, macadamia and bread, for example, works no worse than industrial baits. The food must be crushed into powder, at least with an ordinary stick, and then the powder must be mixed with sand and a small amount of water added. Next, add the remaining ingredients and roll into balls.

As for a specific brand of food, it is impossible to say for sure which is better, everything is strictly individual - fish, reservoirs, weather, and much more are unique and inimitable. But in any case, food worth a hundred rubles or so will be enough for fishing during daylight hours for sure, and sometimes longer. The savings will be very useful for those who fish not only for pure sporting interest, but also to save their own money. Be sure to try this method. You definitely won’t lose anything, since it has already been tested by the experience of quite a few anglers. In general, don’t be afraid to experiment and try something new and unexpected. It may turn out that the ideal bait is two steps away from you, you see it every day.

What I want to talk about in this article really shocked me! According to my friend, carp bite very well on cat food! I would not believe it, but the authority of my friend and his photographs leave no doubt about the veracity of his story. So... Nikolai discovered this attachment for himself quite by accident. While relaxing on a paid pond (pay pond), he watched a man who, using a simple float fishing rod, pulled quite large carp out of the water at half-hourly intervals. The man turned out to be extremely talkative and told the secret of his success - ordinary whiskey! True, for successful fishing it is necessary to first feed the fish with kilograms of food (potatoes, corn, cake, porridge, in general, everything that you found at home), and only after a couple of hours (closer to lunch) the real fishing for big fish will begin. Dry food is not suitable for fishing at all: very small, hard grains and the fish do not like it. They are very difficult to attach to hair and hooks. To be honest, I no longer wanted to test canned food. It is best to fish with wet food (sold in bags), which is divided into meat in “jelly” and meat in “sauce.” Basically, fish bite well on meat in “sauce”; for some reason, fish refuse to be caught on “jelly”. It doesn’t matter what kind of meat, it is caught approximately equally well with rabbit, beef, chicken, and so on... Wet food is very difficult to keep on the hook, and it is almost impossible to cast it far from the shore, so the fish is caught on a float. You can fish with two types of rods: a float rod, for 4-6 meters, and a plug rod, for 15, 20 or more meters. The choice of rod depends on the fishing conditions (how long to cast the bait), the equipment is quite ordinary: line, hook, “hair”, sinker. Fishing begins while it’s still dark, I arrive, pour out 1-5 kilograms of bait, not necessarily cat food (see above). The goal is to collect as much fish as possible, the small fish will take away most of it, and later, when a more substantial fish comes up, it will turn its attention to a high-calorie meat dish. Biting carp on a float rod is no different from biting roach, bream or crucian carp. This is what we should not forget about - carp is a stronger and more persistent fish, in view of this, as soon as we managed to hook it, we immediately tighten the fishing line and at all costs keep it in clean water and do not let it go into the snags. If he manages to writhe, you can say goodbye to your tackle, it will be torn off. Holding the rod vertically, we bring the fish to the shore, where we pull it out with a pre-prepared bait. Well, that's the whole story. Believe it or not, I will definitely try this method of carp fishing this summer, and I will write about it on my page! View attachment 1350

Carpomania – Carp bait and groundbait

Catching fish with cat food

Cat food is a well-known product for feeding cats. There are different types of food: dry, wet, canned, with sauce or in the form of jelly. Some people know this food from television advertising, while others feed it to their pets themselves. Did you know that cat food sold in bags is one of the very good baits for carp fishing?

Moreover, as a rule, this bait is preferred by large, weighty carp – weighing 1.5 kg or more. Even though the process of catching carp with cat food is fraught with some difficulties, in certain cases it is still worth trying. I discovered this attachment quite by accident.

This incident happened one hot July day, when our friendly company of five people was going to visit a carp “pay pond” located 17-20 km from us. The pond was nothing unusual: a wide reservoir with relatively clean banks, where there were carp, crucian carp, grass carp with silver carp, as well as white bream with roach. Upon arrival at the reservoir, without thinking twice, we took out our carp baits (canned corn, potatoes, three subspecies of boilies of different recipes), and began to fish.

The bite can’t be said to be that bad (after all, three carp weighing 2 kg each and about 2 kg of crucian carp in half a day is not the worst result), but we still had better fishing experiences. While our group was trying to concentrate on relaxing (some were lying down listening to music, others were playing cards at the table), my attention was attracted by one fisherman standing away from us. It was clear that he was catching some big fish with a simple float rod. Moreover, he pulled out fish quite often - every 15-30 minutes you could see him dragging something out of the water. Having nothing else to do, I decided to approach him - to get to know him, and at the same time to inquire about his successes.

"Hello!" - "Hello!". “Does it bite?” - I ask. “But of course!” the fisherman answers and nods his head towards the fish tank. When I looked into his fish tank, I was stunned: a dozen and a half heavy carp were swimming there (at first glance, weighing from 1.5 to 4 kg each, no less!).

The fisherman turned out to be very good-natured, he happily began to talk about his fishing today. He fished with an ordinary float rod 4 m long, and threw the tackle directly “in front of him,” 7-8 meters from the shore. Without any concealment, he said that he catches with simple cat food - in this case, with beef stew in cheese sauce from Whiskey. He also said that the fishing area must first be “fed”: pour kilograms of bait there (corn, potatoes, boilies, whatever you have). And after a couple of hours, when large carp approach, the real fishing will begin.
