Thanks for the plaudits. We still need help with spreading the word. Fished a lake recently and as a survey not ONE angler had heard about us. They were furious that the angling press never gave us coverage so they could know what we did, and couldn't believe our "Awesome Army" following of huge numbers. One guy started watching our shows on his phone and missed 3 bites ! He was so happy to have found them, so keep spreading the word.
Funniest thing about these videos is the thought of Graeme’s wife sipping a cuppa as she watches out the kitchen window thinking ‘what the hell’s he doing now!’ Keep up the good work, I’ve been binge watching for ages.
He might seam like a crazy old man, but hes right, and an awesome fisherman, years of experience. Nice to see he hasn't lost is "mood". I been using bread for base ground bait with catle feed and chicken rations for years too. You can use "powder" corn, cereals, so much stuff honestly.
If you forget to yoink the ground bait out of the fridge have no worries I got you covered ( slap it in a bucket of water in a bout 1-2 hours should be g2g ) We used to use this when we run out of non frozen food in the restaurant if it works for chicken meat trust me it works for ground bait :) . If you can heat up the water that'd be even better :)
Some anglers use bread and boiled rice for Black Bream. We use mashed trout for chum on the bream. Did a film aboard Britain's top shark hunting dinghy "Hi Sea Drifter" on Black Bream off Bracklesham Bay just days ago.Will be up in a week or so.Don't know about flatties though, but it does draw in the mullet.
Great...thank you...love the videos... have started catching some really nice grass carp after watching your videos...and checking some other web-sites.... caught a 10 pounder yesterday morning using your bread chum/bran suggestions along with baiting my hook with a dough ball mixed with strawberry jam.... :)
1,500lb shark.El Hierro Island. Canary Islands. Over 2 hour battle. Longest of my career. Actually stopped me fishing for a while as I thought there was nothing left to prove. Fortunately it passed and I am right back in the frame catching anything. Heaviest coarse catch if that's what you mean was 303lbs 7ozs if I recall. On floating dog biscuits.
That's right.It should break up on impact with the water and then shower down. Covers a larger area than "exploding" packet mixes. No good testing them in a bowl of water as it doesn't cover the throwing and impact with the water surface. Good on commercial day ticket waters where the fish know anything hitting the water means the dinner bell is going. Great for tight margin fishing as well. Plus it can be more fun making your own.
Lol this is more of a comedy show than fishing. Loved the sketch about the French..... Sticks hahaha. Graeme is very funny and good tips... I said tips Smith lol.... This is different to the usual fishing show. Funny and informative.
Maybe. But you would have to use less water, less bran and add a bit of plain white groundbait to it.Certainly worth a try, but principally its used to close to medium range fishing/short sessions. I don't have time to "build" a swim using a feeder. I want it straight in the water 6/8 balls, then I fish over the top. Its quicker than just straight feeder fishing. You can use cage feeder to top up.
hey greame remember way back when we were kids and went worm hunting in the rain on the village green and golf coarses and government building greens in the night with a flash light.little thing kept the mind busy not like all this tv guarbage today ?????.
After watching your video's i decided to make up your famous ground bait and went down to watmore farm fisheries after finding out its just down the road from me and got myself 2 fish just under 8 lb in 3 hours. thank you tafishing, you have made me enjoy fishing again by getting back to basics.
Never heard of it ? Mail Mike direct on our website and he'll see where /what it is .I have no idea, though we are looking into the idea of doing a few shows.
i float fish on the bottom dont know much about groundbait is there anything i could add like sweetcorn maggots etc or take out of your mix that would help me catch carp in the margins or far out etc?
Another great video Greame, :) A man after ma own Heart. Ach Aye, I've used porage oats masel for years and they work wonders. Keep up the good work. Tight Lines. p.s. Don't give up the comedy :))
Graeme, do you still read these comments? I really need to ask you a question about this video just to clear something up. I have watched this video so many times but only just found a place to get the bran. So now I’m ready to make the groundbait but I’m confused about something....you said before you added the oats, that the bread and bran on its own is not really for rivers but I have seen lots of your videos where you use the groundbait on rivers......so my question is do I need to add the oats if I’m using it on a river? I really hope you could answer this for me please it would really help. And Thankyou so much for all your videos, has helped me a lot trying to learn how to fish they are the best videos on RUclips by far
You should try a small test mix at home,,experiment with it and let it soak for ten minutes to see how it goes. The oats will go really sticky on their own..Same goes for Bailey's No1 horse feed.On its own it really binds,so a bit of bran stops it clogging too much.
TA Fishing Thankyou for replying. So this combination of the bread, bran and oats could be used on the river, depending on the consistency? What consistency would you recommend for a river? Should it be more sticky so it doesn’t just break up on hitting the water?
Where do you get the bran from? I really want to try this groundbait mix when I go fishing for carp on bread because it's such a complementary method but I can only find expensive oatbran £10/5kg online!
id be very grateful for a fast response ta fishing. is there any alternative Groundbait that you can buy in your local agriculture shop that you can just use for good carp groundbait by just adding water not needing to mix up a whole ton of other baits
Thanks I heard in one of your videos about Bailey's number one is that like proper groundbait because I have an agricultural store beside my house and it would be very handy to get that sort of bait is it just barley or wheat just in case they don't have that specific brand
From the twat that makes twatapults.I think I might be the only one. But I made that one for myself. I don't produce them commercially, it was just for fun
MrSteveog would this be ok for perch if i added maggots and worms . river i fish in small 13ft wide at wodest slow flowing small roach upto 2lb perch up to 5lb 2 ( record there) and pike to 33lb(record there) so would it be ok for roach and perch
@@TAFishing youre the man Greame! YOU ARE THE MAN!! hilarious video, and now I know how to make cheap and good groundbait. I also appreciate the thousands of hours you have put in to gain your encyclopedic knowledge of fishing, and you give it to us all for free. Thankyou so much.
worms,worms,worms.Or red maggots, but tipped with a small brandling(worm).And an open end, or cage feeder with groundbait. Bream can eat a lot. Difficult to overfeed a big shoal if they move in.
This video gets hilarious. But on the serious side how does ground bait help you catch fish if your just throwing or catapulting it out in the water? Shouldn't you either put it in a net or on a hook that holds this type of bait?
I tried it ! But I just put bread and some seeds in it , mashed it up with water drained it all of , left it soak over night , you no what I've never had a better days fishing yet !
Well done hahahah love it ,, thanks for sharing im a big Brazilian fã of you, , I hope to meet you one day for fishing together maybe u can teach me how to catch a carp for my channel, ,, good bless you sir
You are probably putting too much water with the groundbait and it is soft.Put a little water,mix thoroughly but leave 10 minutes for it to soak then you can add a bit more if you want to make it softer.
Why put it in water just to dry it out again? I just toast it for a minute then blend it til its dry crumb, then add everything else and mix it together.. then add water at the venue.
i blend all my stale bread and then put in carrier bags and freeze when i am ready to go fishing i take it out freezer the night before and mix cumin and icing sugar and a bit of garlic powder along with curry powder all dry . then when ready to fish i add water , also i put just vanilla essence with it . and i am more funnier than him
Great videos! so much more interactive and user friendly than the guys just ramming their sponsors expensive kit down out necks! Will this work on carp?
anybody wanting to moan at the videos should understand Graeme knows more about fishing then most, so enjoy the fact he puts as much effort into making his videos too!
Yes I totally respect that and I'm sure he's a lovely guy but why all the soppy silly talk/actions?? WHY?????? totally no call for it, he's just making a twat of himself, its also NOT in the slightest funny in fact its blood annoying.....
Can I take this opportunity to apologise as to my previous comment on this video, let me explain, I have only a few weeks ago taken up fishing as now retired, I went and got myself kitted out, ok home I came and took to RUclips to learn, the first video I came across was this one, I thought my god whats this bloke all about (hence my comment) my god, I am now addicted to his awesome fantastic videos to the point I now search for them, Greame is an inspiration to the sport and I have learnt so much in such a short space of time watching his videos.

Graeme you are an absolute legend, making my way through all of your videos and I will be sure to recommend you to any anglers I meet when I am out and about! Truly AWESOME content!
For me its going straight into the groundbait bowl. Don't waste anything like that. Stale cakes,buns,bread,the fish eat them all. Don't forget they are made for human consumption so no problem with using them as an attractor.Being chocolate based it might get sticky.Mush it up with some bread
Try sweetcorn, pieces of luncheon meat or maggots. Personally I would use the groundbait as the base and just catapult your loose feed in over the top. Fish early or late at this time of year. Margins ,or features like overhanging bushes are good.
The Porridge Oats is just a sort of binding agent. On its own its gluey. You don't need much. The important thing is to get a small handful in every other trot down with the float.

Keep up the good work, I’ve been binge watching for ages.
Back here currently taking notes. You're the best, graeme.
Thanks for the help ive just started fishing.
He might seam like a crazy old man, but hes right, and an awesome fisherman, years of experience. Nice to see he hasn't lost is "mood". I been using bread for base ground bait with catle feed and chicken rations for years too. You can use "powder" corn, cereals, so much stuff honestly.
That bread was harder than a doorman at a night club !!

Learning a lot from your channel , keep it up and thanks for making these videos.
Just getting back into fishing ,great videos best ive seen on you tube for tips etc ,cheers fellas.

finally, tried this mix again this morning. better results. :)
The best fishing channel around
Video is a bit old, so prices might be off in UK. But in my country(BiH) 30kg sack of bran costs around 4 pounds or about $6.
Great tips Graeme i use this everytime i fish for silver fish .
Great...thank you...love the videos...

this vidieo is brilliant, i havent tried it yet? but i eill do next week 👍🏿 the vidieo ismmore interactive and dont speed up
Will this attract perch or is it just general coarse fish
don`t know how I`ve missed this one so long Good thing I`ve seen your vid`s or I would think you are crazy. LOVE it
quite a buzz glad I found this know a lake that needs to loose lots of grass carp enjoyed video make more
Lol this is more of a comedy show than fishing. Loved the sketch about the French..... Sticks hahaha. Graeme is very funny and good tips... I said tips Smith lol.... This is different to the usual fishing show. Funny and informative.
Hi Mr pullen my name is John I watch your videos as fishing is only think I like to do hope to meet you in the future happy fishing

My Dad did exactly that, ground bread, bran and oats 60 years ago
Very entertaining, cheered me up no end,,
Keep up the great work, greetings from "Home of Bran " Wantage 👍👍
A wicked mix.Sounds like it would attract dogs,Humans and Parakeets....in that order ! Good man.Give everything a try in the supermarket I say.
Totally Awesome, Laughed my sock's off.
hey greame remember way back when we were kids and went worm hunting in the rain on the village green and golf coarses and government building greens in the night with a flash light.little thing kept the mind busy not like all this tv guarbage today ?????.
he is just really funny that baseball part with him spitting made me laugh so much XDXD
I dont comment usually on youtube but this made me lough so much and the twatapult is classic 😂😂

what do you think is better to use, soft pellets or normal hard pellets?
😊😆🤙🤙 I enjoy time with Graeme
Man I love your videos, your hilarious 🤣
Gotta love his energy... Lol
Never heard of it ? Mail Mike direct on our website and he'll see where /what it is .I have no idea, though we are looking into the idea of doing a few shows.
So funny that's the funniest fishing video ever I love it
great video mate i will try this
could you use this for fishing the method feeder?
Can you use this ground bait with bits of black lug and squid mixed in for sea fishing Graham
Yep...Good for Black Bream and Garfish.
Is that a dawncraft dandy on your wall there?
Haha! Look at the shark jaws on the wall :-)
Great video, thanks.
Crush up weatabix add nutmeg then water. Ball them up and you got groundbait, nutmeg is smelly so it attracts carp
what would you use for Perch aswell . would it be the smale but shall i add maggots worms fishy stuff?
Alex Godwin you could try dry mealworm?
love your vids
19 carp I had in 7 hours ! Cheers mate
You have lost your mind, hope you never find it. What a great idea and as usual a Great tip. Thank you

Thanks Graeme. How long does the groundbait keep for? I.e. what's the longest amount of time you'd make it before you use it?
I use it the first day,second at a push.Then freeze it. I don't like using it longer as the bran goes sort of sweet/off a bit. Fresh is best.
I've just bought some strawberry groundbait can I put some maggots in as well or sweet corn or pellets or would that affect the groundbait
You should try adding chili powder to your ground bait! Fish love the spicy smell and flavor in the water
This video gets hilarious. But on the serious side how does ground bait help you catch fish if your just throwing or catapulting it out in the water? Shouldn't you either put it in a net or on a hook that holds this type of bait?
See our website.DVD for sale. Cats to 180lbs !!! Common Carp to 35lbs.
I tried it ! But I just put bread and some seeds in it , mashed it up with water drained it all of , left it soak over night , you no what I've never had a better days fishing yet !
Thumbs up!!!

awesome graham
Awesome vid so,interesting
do you have to add bran?
Great vid, cheers m8!

Ha ha, Just tried this catapult idea and took my neighbour out of his deckchair,,,, result... thanks Graeme
Using white bread does bring up the food content of the groundbait I've always found brown bread to be better
love these vids!!!!! youre a hoot!! new subscriber for life. US, across the Pond?! : )
will this work on a pellet mothod feeder and pellet feeder thanks
should work really well
Would you be able to use branflakes?
It might be worth a try.

ha ha ha, top form graeme.great video, T/A HOST anf fisher man too...
Small world i live in wantage!
NUT JOB! Great videos

I found a 20kg bag of bran but it's pony feed. Can i still use that?
If its good enough for ponies its good enough for the fish. Try it.
Brilliant entertainment when your in bed at night ..... maybe not now I want to fishing
SMIIIIIIIITH
DONT LAUGH AT HIS STICK
+TAFishing hey it seems I am never able to make my bait stay on my rod. It either drops or fish take it and leave. Any tips ?
You are probably putting too much water with the groundbait and it is soft.Put a little water,mix thoroughly but leave 10 minutes for it to soak then you can add a bit more if you want to make it softer.
If you want to get it dry faster wrap it in a cloth and twist it
Good tip
put some horse feed naf molasses in it as well
Rehydration
I don’t think there is a child in school with the surname smith or jones anymore it’s more like khan or Patel? !!!

this is probably my favourite video on this channel, because it's both a really good tutorial, and just plain silly.
I swear Graham is a cartoon character.
Hi.
What do you think of using a chocolate cake as ground bait ?
It's been a while in fridge and it's not safe to eat it.
Thanks
For me its going straight into the groundbait bowl. Don't waste anything like that. Stale cakes,buns,bread,the fish eat them all. Don't forget they are made for human consumption so no problem with using them as an attractor.Being chocolate based it might get sticky.Mush it up with some bread
Try sweetcorn, pieces of luncheon meat or maggots. Personally I would use the groundbait as the base and just catapult your loose feed in over the top. Fish early or late at this time of year. Margins ,or features like overhanging bushes are good.
The Porridge Oats is just a sort of binding agent. On its own its gluey. You don't need much. The important thing is to get a small handful in every other trot down with the float. Bigger fish like chub will start mopping it up. I have to be honest I use it more in the winter when the flow is starting to pick up.
He is Funny!
