You might find that as in the case of intensively fished waters where a great quantity of one dominant bait is being fed, that it becomes difficult to catch fish on other baits, for a variety of reasons. For instance, in carp match fishing in the UK, there are waters dominated by ‘Dynamite Baits’ halibut pellets. In such a situation you are looking at ‘topping’ this bait somehow. I will go further into this below. You might prefer to go the easy route of using a bait made from exactly the same pellet only crushed and made into boilie form like those of ‘Dynamite’s halibut boilies. Or You might choose to use their halibut pellet power and produce an alternative bait with a large percentage of this dominant ingredient. ‘Topping’ a dominant bait is an old and proven method of using the strengths of a dominant bait to actually enhance your personal results on that bait by altering it just enough to make it a new, different and unique bait. This gives the dominant bait a new lease of life. It’s like being the angler to be given this bait to use on a water, knowing that it is the first anglers on a new bait that most seriously reap it’s benefits and often hook the biggest fish very quickly, as suspicion of the new bait is so low when compared to perhaps ‘established baits.’ In the case of pellets as in boilies, these can be soaked in the proprietary dips and soaks provided and these are obviously extremely successful. But what if everyone else seems to be using the same baits and dips as you? What can you do to ‘top’ and already dominant and successful bait? Well this is the theme for a whole new article but here’s an example. Are you a fan of Indian, Thai or Chinese food? These countries among others have discovered many secrets regarding feeding triggers within certain foods and actually base many dishes upon them. The use of fermented shrimps or ’Belachan’ is just one example. All you need to do is make your bait soak a little different using different ingredients, or higher levels of discernable ingredients possibly already present. Being a rebellious type I like to find things that possibly no-one else might be able to copy and many of my methods and types of combinations to ‘top’ baits and soaks are really unusual. You can utilise other soaks from the same company and mix them together perhaps. So much work has gone into refining these successful dips that it makes great logical sense to exploit them. If you feel catch rates could be better, or you want to see if you can tempt a larger number of bigger fish and you’re not the most talented angler on the lake then it’s a good move to alter the ‘dominant baits’ just a little! Many anglers might immediately think of adding a different flavour. Fishing flavours are often extremely complicated mixtures, and far more than just a base like glycerol or alcohol. You could add betaine to your dip or even add concentrated sources. I like to find concentrates which go well to ‘spice up cooking improving food’s digestibility and taste. For example, anchovy concentrate with added sea salt added to a concentrate of lemon grass, ginger and coconut. You will benefit from using dough or paste baits and not just boilied baits. These can pull fish in to your swim in a ‘food excited state’ faster than just boilies although the use pf different grades of soaked pellets is great to, especially when complimenting the characteristics of your boilies. The author has many more fishing and bait ‘edges’ up his sleeve. Every single one can have a huge impact on catches. (Warning: This article is protected by copyright.) By Tim Richardson.
