Live baits like worms add life and movement besides extra soluble amino acids and other amines and acids to attract many big fish. Using a worm or maggots in conjunction with a meat, pellet or boilie bait is an excellent tactic for wary feeding fish and will tempt all kinds of fish from big carp, big catfish, big tench, bream, barbel, specimen roach, salmon, trout, big eels, big sturgeon, and specimen perch and crucian carp; in fact so many big fish, I ve lost count!
I remember fishing a carp lake which had big fish and was a very rich lake. Before I got a boilie bait established on there, the first carp I landed from there was on worms. You get to discover a whole lot more about the life in your fishery when you try worms! For instance, one lake appeared to just hold high double figure carp, with no smaller ones. But using worms for the perch there resulted in a succession of single-figure and smaller, double-figure carp in good numbers, when none of this size were being caught on any other conventional carp baits.
The giant legendary 50 pound plus common carp from Warmwell in Dorset UK has been landed on worm despite very heavy pressure to catch him from anglers using conventional carp bait recipes. When the readymades have done their job and caught a few fish, if too many anglers exploit the same ones of a similar dietary content and physical nature and format, the fish can easily change their feeding habits. They might start eating baits washed-out of flavours as old baits like this are mostly safe to eat. Or they might still eat them fresh but have learned to avoid conventional rigs used by the majority of anglers.
Even though you may only go fishing for a day, or a day and night, or even a week or 3, remember that fish have 24 hours a day, 7 days and nights a week to practice avoiding hooks! This bigger picture is so important in revealing how fish get trained or conditioned by angling activities, rigs and baits etc and knowing how to get round this conditioning!
There is a craze for bloodworm and their extracts for use in many baits for various species in the UK and rightly so. The amino acid profiles of bloodworm, tubifex and worms and insect larvae in general are very attractive to fish. Fish have adapted to detect the major essential dietary substances issuing from such natural foods in the water. Not surprisingly, fish receptor cells and sites code for these substances and this coding and stimulation reflect the most feed-stimulatory of the amino acids especially. These amino acids are usually the most abundant in these worms and fish use the detection of them in order to locate and consume natural foods in their aquatic environment, highly efficiently, even when their heads are completely buried under black silt for hours on end. (Many carp have darkened colouration in and around the mouth as a result of such behaviour, and some examples of very natural feeding fish can appear literally black in colour.)
So what are the key stimulatory substances in an earthworm or maggot, or bloodworm for instance Fish feeding on tubifex have an amino-rich diet, but their essential fatty-acid intake will be low as a result; so don t despair if your fish have turned into bloodworm addicts and don t appear catchable! All you need to do is supply substances in their diet which may possibly be lacking; so giving them a potent essential dietary reason for eating your bait! Incidentally, in fishing, you may well agree, that any bait that fish are naturally eating is probably the best one to use if you re sure of ideas, but the trick here is not to offer them a needle in a haystack bait. In other words give them a big worm or a bunch of small worms if they are feeding on tiny bloodworms, or give them a boilie or pellet bait absolutely packed with freely soluble amino acids as a result of the bloodworm extract concentrate you might have loaded it with.
Talking to many fishermen from all kinds of trades even shell fish and crab fisherman, they all insist when you get the nutritional profile of the bait right, it s like magic and the fish, crabs and shellfish all come running in numbers. Get it slightly wrong and there could be absolutely no response. The easy way to ensure you always have a bait that is right is to fish more than one kind of bait on your hook or rig, or more than one kind of bait on different rods. The same goes for flavours. Often you might find one flavour is better on one day in one swim, than a flavour that had been your favourite on a different venue where it was highly successful.
For instance, you might use a mixture of essential oils and proprietary fishing flavors together to create a new flavour. What you are doing in effect is boosting the active or even more water reactive components of the flavour. The fish are so highly sensitive that they will detect the individual components of your flavor. It s incredible really what they can do. But you can use this sensitivity to beat them. For instance, you might be using a readymade bait flavoured with a maple flavour which has been successful in the past but has slowed down . To beat the fish, all you need to do is make up your own bait dip to create a slightly alternative bait. The fish will certainly recognise the original base mix the bait is made from, but a slight difference to smell and probably more importantly in taste can get the fish mouthing your baits and getting hooked far more than your fellow anglers baits straight from the bag. Here s a few ideas for doing this, but there are very potent methods beyond this incorporating much more secret chemicals:
Make a homemade dip using:
5 parts liquid molasses.
5 parts natural maple syrup.
1 part betaine hydrochloride.
1 part fine sea or rock salt.
Or make up a natural boosted worm based dip using:
5 parts bloodworm extract.
5 part liquid yeast extract.
5 part liquid liver extract.
1 part betaine HCL
1 part talin or Thaumatin B or other intense sweetener, with a bit of added salt if desired.
You might wish to use a synthetic worm dip using:
1 part synthetic bloodworm flavor.
1 part synthetic worm extract additive.
1 part consisting of equal amounts of lecithins and fish oils with added betaine HCL and salt if desired (Preferable!)
Millions of dips and alternative dips and bait soaks are possible to keep ahead of the fish and your fellow anglers, and don t forget you can impregnate various plastic and rubber fake baits like fake corn with any of the above, or rubber maggots, with scopex flavour or n-butyric acid for instance, or plastic pellet with strawberry oil based flavour or coat it with marine halibut oil fish meal paste.
When you think about it, worms are at their best when freshly leaking attractive substances from their bodies and bites can be very soon after casting out. I m sure their movement and sound in the water also make them more stimulating and easier to find. Some of the most stimulatory of the amino acids in various worms extracts mixtures include valine, alanine, cystine, methionine, leucine and phenylalanine. When worms eat they consume whole micro-ecosystems. In the case of earthworms, consumed bacteria populations are among the main sources of their essential amino acids and even humans and carp use healthy bacterial enzymes to fully digest our food!
You can exploit many worm-like ingredients in baits as well as exploiting fake an real ones on your rig. Anyone using a fake rubber maggot covered hook with a real worm or 2 maggots attached with a worm paste wrap is going to catch something sooner or later and the chances are it will either be a pesky tiny but big-mouthed perch, or a big carp, bass, trout, catfish, barbel or bream for instance.
Mealworms, dendrobaena, lobworms, brandlings, red worms of many kinds, caddis fly larvae, bloodworm (the larvae of a kind of fly) and tubifex, silkworm pupae and even daphnia, mini crayfish, shrimps, water fleas, algae can all be combined and used very creatively to keep you ahead. You might use it in a homemade dissolving method ground bait with items to give it more activity in the water, perhaps with crushed hemp and wheat or barley bran, or layers mash chicken feed and Vitalin cereal and meat extracts based dog food which is a good ground bait binder, etc. Loose maggots sprayed with flavours and soaked in edible dyes are a popular method used in soluble polyvinyl alcohol bags for carp, but this is just the simplest method in this category and far more effective methods can be created with a little imagination...
The thing about using worms is, although you may be focussed on one big species, you might get many other bonuses as well. For instance, on 2 big carp waters, Darenth big lake and Rainbow lake in France I tempted big tench, big pike and even a big eel besides hooking some extraordinarily large carp. Never under-estimate the humble worm - you simply never know what you might hook next especially if you make your own baits and ground baits exploiting their irrestible magic!
