The bighead carp, which lives in the middle and upper layers of the water, is a typical filter-feeding fish that mainly eats zooplankton during its frying period and then switches to phytoplankton when it grows up a little bit, and it is very impatient and good at jumping. The bighead carp, also known as the fathead carp, chub carp, and silver carp are somewhat similar in appearance, but also live in the middle and upper layers of the fish, mainly eating rotifers, water fleas and other zooplankton critters, but also eat some diatoms, salt algae and other phytoplankton.

The bighead carp's temperament is different from that of the silver carp, which is more docile and does not like to jump. Although the bighead carp and the silver carp have different personalities, their habits are more or less the same, and the bighead carp and the bighead carp like the bait with a sour smell, and the principle of making these baits should be rancid and smelly, but not moldy, which means that they should have a rancid smell but should not be long and hairy. Be sure to wash your hands to ensure that the bait is not moldy to the maximum extent.

After washing your hands, break the head into small pieces, and then twisted into a crumb shape, do not have to wait until completely cooled, directly into the food bag, exhaust the air, tie the mouth of the bag, the exterior can be set on three or four food bags, each food bag mouth to ensure that tightly, to reduce the bait and the chance of air contact with the mold.

Then put the bag into the sun exposure, two or three days after the bait has been rancid, this time you can use. If you don't use it up within seven days, it will become soft and smelly, and you need to mix it with fresh nesting residue foam when you use the bait again.

Second, the production of water bait

Water bait as the name suggests is the bait of the mixing liquid. You need to match the bean cake or cornmeal nest rubbed out of the slag foam mixed into the use of bad food, water bait materials for 500 ml mineral water bottle half bottle of fermented bean juice, add two vinegar essence, and then add a small amount of grain wine or wine, a small amount of brown sugar, etc., add a good cover, shake the water bait will be done.

Because the bean juice is fermented can be used directly, you can also let it re-fermentation, water in the alcohol and brown sugar have the role of fermentation. Mixed water flavor for a strong sour taste with a little sweet, because of the fermentation effect also has some stinky choking flavor.

If you need a stronger odor, you can add a few pieces of stinky tofu or stinky tofu juice. This half-bottle of aqueous agent needs to be combined with a pound of bean cake or cornmeal nest of residual foam.

Three, sweet bait

You can choose to use fresh corn flour and wheat bran or soybean cake mix, the ratio can be controlled for 3:1, that is, three corn flour plus a child soybean cake or wheat bran, and then add half a couple of brown sugar to make the sweetness more fully, the method of making it is relatively simple, add the right amount of water and flour into the nest, the pot steamed, the steamed. When the steamed dumplings are fermented and used, the bite rate increases significantly.

Four, scented bait

You can use corn flour as the base bait, in which to add a stronger flavor of fried soybean flour, fried peanut flour and other food powder, you can also add directly to the flavor or grain wine, you can add a particularly strong flavor of sesame seed paste or sesame oil, of course, if you want to use the flower water or wind oil can also be used, in the One of these, mixed with the base bait made of soft and hard bait.

But remember not to make the bait's flavor too complex, not to have a strong fishy or rancid smell mixed in with the scent, and try to make the bait smell like a single flavor.

Fifth, strange flavor bait

Can be added to fresh corn flour chopped leeks, leeks the more crushed the better to add water and flour, you can also use a blender leeks into the juice and flour, and then make a good corn flour into a nest, steamed and then fermented to use this bait has a special smell of vegetables, bighead carp like it best.

Here you can replace the corn flour with buckwheat flour, or you can replace the leeks with chicken blood, or you can add fresh milk or milk powder to it, and this kind of bait is very popular with bighead and silver carp.

There are a lot of ways to make bait for bighead and silver carp, and I'd like to introduce you to a few of the basic versions, so make sure you choose your bait according to the local water conditions and fish conditions so that the fish will bite more often.
