I'm in the process of clipping and uploading my creels, weather conditions and chum recipes and combos to get a sense of how I made some of my observations. I'll be posting my Weeping Weeping Willow UK Carp Creels so you folks can see which bait and groundbait combos the carps preferred. I can't do more warm water testing at this time because ponds do not get warm enough in the fall unless there is a competition with off season warm weather. I suspect there is a cold water combo of bait and groundbait that is more effective than pairing boilies/pellets to matching groundbait. I keep tweaking recipes and bait combos to see if I can increase carp weight and attract more trophies and unis. I prefer to fish carp during peak hours as there are more trophies and less young carps. I usually got multiple Unis to bite within the first peak game hour but can only reel in 1 at a time. This amounted to 3 Unis per each 2 peak game hours. Swapping Uni rods tended to make me lose one of the Unis to line slack after switching rods. I could only land 1 Uni at a time if there were more than 1 Uni on my rod stand. I got a consistent pattern of Uni bites about 4 every 2 game hour period. Amount of trophies and unis per 6 hours of peak time fishing took a dramatic rise.
Tailored spod mixes to ambient temps and matched pellet and boilies to the warm/cool weather flavors of groundbait/aromas and bottom textures. Then I paid attention to the daily/nightly temperature patterns, weather patterns, groundbait temps, aroma temps and looked at bottom composition of bouyed spots. Ummm, results indicated that I was wasting money as this was slightly better than using just peas and corn. Then I tried random groundbait and spod mixing with random boilies and pellets. Then I tried carp rods with random boilies and pellets, no spod, no pvc, no method, slightly better results. I just used sweet peas and sweet corn with bottom rods. When I first starting fishing Weeping Willow, UK, I had no clue what spodding and groundbait carp fishing was about.
