Bird Seed Particle Mix Fishing Bait

This is an easy to make ground bait for carp fishing. But I’m sure it will work well for other large fish such as pike and perch.

A good mix for seed, fruits and other grains to give a sweet and fruity ground bait or spod to attract larger fish. Sacks of bird seed are really cheap to buy and you get to feed your local garden birds while having lots of potential fishing bait handy.

Apart from the birdseed, the other main ingredients are sweetcorn and chick peas – both are loved by carp.

After soaking and cooking the only other ingredients you need are flavourings. This video has used a packet of strawberry jelly powder for the flavour. I find that both strawberry and raspberry flavour jelly powders work as well as each other. But it’s always worth experimenting with different flavourings depending on the fish you are targeting.
