Hi Den, I make my own paste from micro pellets ( Skretting) just cover them with boiling water and leave for a while them mash them up with your hand. Always work for me for carp.
What I have done in the past when fishing paste, is to put a piece of corn on the hook then wrap the paste over the hook. Helps keep the paste on and gives you benefit of a "two pronged bait attack"
Yep. Thanks Jake. One more to go for next week mate, then I think I might see about some waggler fishing, or maybe showing everyone my new range of cage feeders from the 3D Printer.
No worries Richard. 😁 And not only that you'll probably float away if your fishing the match this weekend mate. That area looks to be getting hit badly with this constant rain.
@@FishingwithDen I'm moving house this weekend Den so it's a write off for me already. Should be back for the next one, hopefully with the new pole up and running! I'll bring some floating turtle food for you and Ivan 😅
@@richardtuxford1812 Good luck with the move mate. I won't be doing this match either due to the floods, so I'll see you next time. By the way, if your so busy, how come you managed to watch my video during work time? Admit it, your hooked!!!😂😂👍
@@Offcut55 Thanks very much Phill. The problem is that sometimes baits are stopped at Customs under the various laws about importation of certain ingredients.
@@FishingwithDen I once had a session Dorset store on worms it was mild when I set of and collected about 60 lobs along the way then it poured down got cold quick, got to the river and had a night of eels. It was mid summer as I recall had a dozen eels in all
@@FishingwithDen silver eels of the south coast fishing I think Brême and tench are as bad for slime put a small swivel between main line and hook link stops them twisting it up they just rotate on it also easy hook link changes
I take a metal spike and drive it in the ground,then remove it,and use the hole for my umberella.The spike and the 2lb lump hammer are a bit heavy,but it works.
Thanks Stan. This umbrella is actually a DIY Sunshade which is attached to a 3D printed adjustable bracket which fits onto my seat box. It's still in the prototype stage, but everything seems to be working well. It was the umbrella itself which was blown inside out by the wind.😁👍

I would love to be able to use them too Alan. Unfortunately, I can't find any down here in Australia.

Interesting point Steve, I like that idea mate.👍
I'm being spoiled with all these pole videos lol thanks buddy loved it again!

Enjoyed it den as I cannot get out due to rain I made fish based boilie same result eels and turtles
I should have known better Pete, but I had to crush some cat food balls down to get the bait I needed. It seems they are all fish or meat based.
"it's better than working guys" 🤣
Sat here at work with a to do list longer than a Leonard Cohen song, thanks for rubbing it in 😅

@@FishingwithDen I am the master of multitasking and you're not overly excitable so it doesn't distract too much 😅😜
@@richardtuxford1812 You mean I'm boring then?😂👍
It's never a waste of time when you're fishing Den,Hope you do well in the match Cheers Mate
Thanks Alan.
Hi den ive cuaght more carp on bread paste than corn i mostly fish both when float fishing on ponds
I find that I'm using bread more when it gets a bit colder Brad, but it works great for Mullet all year round.
Here in Texas we also have severe issues with turtles. They attack anything edible. When they are thick I turn to plastics.
They can be a real pain Brian, so a switch to a lure makes sense if the fish you are trying to catch will take them.👍
There nightmare here in oz during summer we dont get turtles in winter
I tend to use sticky paste/bread or Fjuka and a pellet on a hair at the same time. Did not mind eels but my father hated them!
I just wish we could buy those products down here Phill.
@@FishingwithDen Happy to send you some
@@Offcut55 Thanks very much Phill. The problem is that sometimes baits are stopped at Customs under the various laws about importation of certain ingredients.
@@FishingwithDen yes I have seen on tv how strict they are.
What ground bait was it den love all them eels
I think I used some ground up cat food pellets which included fish. Bad mistake - I hate Eels!🤣🤣

@@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES Yuk! You can keep them!😂😂👍👍

@@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES Your not going to convince me about Eels mate. I will always hate handling them.😁😁👍👍
A bad day's fishing is better than a good day at work. 😁 Good luck with the match. 👍👍
Thanks John
A small bead on a hair, a little like a push stop also works with paste, simply wrap the paste around the bead
Yes, that does work well on the thicker paste. Here's a video where I show how it's done using a waggler rod: ruclips.net/video/8Fror9tQUas/видео.html
will you be videoing the match Den
Yes mate.
@@FishingwithDen brilliant Den 👏 I'm looking forward to watching it .
Very cool!

Did you use paste from the shop or mix your own?
You can't buy it from the shops down here in OZ Jan, so I made it up by crushing cat biscuits into a fine powder and adding water.
Would the turtle get weighed in a match situation? 🤔
No mate. They are release immediately and unharmed.
