Then again, bait works, then it doesn´t, then it does again So for me I will put up with the repeated ideas hoping for the hidden gem. Taste is vital ! If carp readily accept & feast on a said bait, over a long period of time, with no inhibitions at all, then why should they, at a later stage "prefer not to" continue munching this bait ? Nothing has changed in the bait itself, so it shouldn´t blow Understandably, due to enviromental fluctuations, a slight change in diet, occurs with varying feed signal responses, predicted by the life cycle of naturals, for example. Unless carp genetics change I agree, that’s a no brainierīaits loose their edge and I can guarantee when somebody brings something different along they can start catching all the fish, that’s the reason, why? Good luck with whichever avenue you pursue.Ī carp that ignores Amino acid (based baits) is very soon a dead carp. I dip in and out of the threads as I find some of it tiresome when it gets repetitive, there's so much more to bait than just ingredients, additives etc. I have what I feel are edges so will only go so far, it blunts debate but I still keep quiet, am sure there are many the same! It matters not, because if we both manage to choose our own mix of ingredients that result in a strong feed response, then the desired end is met, however different the approach.īait threads always split anglers, many views with so many variables, we all catch a few so are all correct to a point.
I think the difference of opinion is that you don't believe in the reflex system, where carp receptors are hardwired to respond to a programmed selection of chemical molecules and that you believe carp are capable of conscious choices of taste.
In other words, attraction as I see it, has to trigger both parts of the selection system. They are both integral parts of the same food selection process and neither exist in isolation. I believe chemoreception attraction is all about triggering both smell and taste. What I would say, is that my opinion re feed signal attraction is not too dissimilar to your opinion on taste. The point being, that repeating the same answer is a direct response to being repeatedly asked the same question.Īnyway, the thread, I think, has covered and discussed many different topics, other than what you, Dean and I might believe and like you, if some readers have discovered the odd hidden gem, then good luck to them and perhaps, that is good as can be expected of a thread. The concept of an ultimate bait has been suggested several times in terms of it having magical properties, enabling it to draw fish from all over the lake and climbing up one's rods, albeit in a tone of disbelief, and then having fielded the question, having to repeat that an ultimate bait would be nothing of the sort. Yes, repetition can be tedious, just as much for the writer as the reader. Carping in a nutshell Reminds me of lines in school/detention.Ĭarp angling = repetitive repetition, being sat on the bank for days, like a fish in a tank Who´s testing who ? You forgot to mention repetitive blanking. Then they wait for me to reel in and pack up before eating it. The fish in my lake deliberately show when I feed bait, persuading me to feed more. It's good to think we raise interest as well as hackles. Hope you have gained some gems to broaden your fishing knowledge. Thanks for your positive feedback to all the posters. " Perhaps you could be persuaded to go a little bit further? It would be interesting to read your thoughts on, " there's so much more to bait than just ingredients and additives etc. They are like Forest Gump's box of chocolates: you never know what you're gonna get. Yes, some parts of threads can be tiresome with repetition, but they aren't choreographed and edited to present a balanced article, but are spontaneous and written in real time. I once dated a girl who was of that opinion. It's a shame you feel unable to add to the debates because you will only go so far. Flavours,Acids, Sugars,spice & all things nice?
