Liquid Gold

The power of heat has the ability to turbocharge bait. Here are three simple ways to improve the ‘come-get-me’ appeal of your carp food…

Warm Nutty Gloop!
For those avid nut fans out there, this heating trick has the ability to turn your fermenting spod mixes into a gloopy, halo cloud of sweet goodness! The tactic involves using the hugely popular—and incredibly tasting—Roasted Nut Compound from CC Moore, which in its raw natural state is very dense due to its sugary, sticky properties. To turn this porridge-like bottle of goodness into a milky, carp-catching syrup is simple with an old pan and a dash of water. By adding a few heaped spoons of the nutty stodge to a pan, adding a dash of water and allowing it to heat gently, you will be left with a highly attractive soup of nutty goodness. The finished product is a warm, cloudy mixture of all the natural sugars and appetite stimulants that drive carp into a feeding frenzy.

1. Prepare your partiblend in the usual way.

2. Add some Roasted Nut Compound to a pan.

3. Next add a dash of water to the pan too.

4. Over a low heat, give them a good mix.

5. Pour over your desired free offerings.

6. Leave the baits to soak in the warm, nutty goodness…

Oily Boilies
A neat trick for making your boilies more attractive is to dose them in warm oil. This creates a superb halo which means that the oils can penetrate the baits quicker, releasing incredible plumes of goodness into the swim when introduced. Lightly warm the oil, then simply pour the heated liquid directly onto your baits before sealing them tight and leaving them overnight to absorb the liquid.

1. Add a dash of Pure Salmon Oil to a pan.

2. Once heated, pour directly over your boilies.

3. Cover all of the baits and allow to soak overnight.

4. The baits will be full of oily goodness

The Sticky Trick
Carp simply love that sticky, oozing liquid that leaches into the silt and gravel on the lakebed, triggering them to home in and feed on spots for prolonged periods. By simply heating a naturally thick liquid, such as Liquid Tuna Compound, it creates a much stickier liquid, which has the ability to bind free offerings and ooze in the water when introduced. The smoother nature of the L030 means, that after heating, it will penetrate baits much more effectively, while retaining the incredible pulling powers of the hydrolysed liquid.
