Sweetcorn

...or out of a can, sweetcorn makes one of the best "deadly" hookbait for carp, tench, barbel , chubb and many other coarse fish. Availability ========= This surely has to be one of the most readily available hookbaits known. Just by going to any supermarket many kilos of frozen sweetcorn can be purchased for just a few pounds, although these do need a little cooking before they are used. There are also tins of corn, which are ready to use without ...
...opening a can of unflavoured sweetcorn you should drain off the liquid and rinse the corn under the tap before you put it into your baitbox. This will remove the sweet liquid and stop the corn becoming sticky or slimy in warm weather. Trust me, there's nothing worse than getting your hands covered in this awful stuff, especially when wasps are about and there's nowhere to wash it off.

Review of Sweetcorn

...Prices for a tin of sweetcorn obviously vary from place to place. One of the cheapest and best I’ve found is actually Lidls supermarkets. What you’re often looking for is a small grained variety. Then you can stick with a smaller bait by using just a single grain, or put on 2 or 3 grains for a bigger one. Especially through the summer months, when there is a lot of sunlight shining through the water, I really think it can be a quite ...
...particularly well in these conditions, and is therefore easier for fish to see, so hopefully they’ll eat it.

Review of Sweetcorn

Sweetcorn has always been one of my favourite baits to use, almost from the moment I switched over to Freshwater fishing...... I think it was the episode of John Wilson's "GO FISHING" series on the River Guden in Denmark that did it. It's also simple to obtain...... simply go into your local Corner Shop, or supermarket.... grab a can of Green Giant Niblets from the tinned vegetable section (or the one by "HAPPY SHOPPER" is supposed to be best from ...

If you want to give it a shot, then you'll have to get it from a tackle shop (if your local tackle shop don't stock it, give Askari's mail-order service a try). Anyway, you can fish it with either just 1 or 2 pieces on the hook.... or present it as a large bait by hooking it as usual, then sliding it up the hook length + on ...

....I have also found 8 out of 10 fish i catch on corn are over 3 pounds in coarse fishing.Strawberry corn attracts big fish ,carp are attracted on the bottom and base of ponds smaller fish and other varieties of coarse fish are caught up in the water on smaller lighter rigs. Thank you for your time Simon_mark_pritchard@hotmail.com Any questions relating to fishing and life in general give us bell ill be happy to answer any queries you have. ...
