La natural bait it is excellent for fishing. If you really do not like using earthworms or other types of live worms, you can choose make your own bait and seek to make a good day of fishing.
How to prepare bait for fishing
Initially we must determine the type of target fish of our fishing or those species that occur with more abundance in our area. Knowing the habits and tastes of each species will allow us to determine the type of bait to use and thus prepare something that is really worthwhile.
Types of bait and its preparation
Bread
Bread excellent for attracting fish in addition to how accessible it is, and making a bread bait is a very easy task.
Hook baits, such as bread baits, are a variety that can work very well for almost all inland water species. For this you only need a bit of stale bread and form a ball around the hook.
It is best to wet the bread a little, place it on the hook and press (very carefully not to hurt yourself) until it is compact around the hook. To drain excess moisture, you can squeeze it with a dry cloth and remove it to leave a compact mass ready for your fishing day.
cereal flakes
It is another type of natural and very accessible bait. To make this pasta, look for natural cereals, such as wheat or oats, and makes a gentle grinding In a mortar, add water or even some kind of soda to very slightly moisten the mixture.
In this way we can obtain a pasta that you can, or use as balls for baiting the water, or compact around the hook, just as the pan was used.
basic dough
A variation of the above is by making a mixture of wheat and corn flour to make the dough. To make this mixture, you can make a mixture of equal parts of wheat and corn (a couple of tablespoons or up to half a cup of each).
As a liquid agent, honey can be used. Everything must be kneaded to form a compact mass; then form balls that you can keep frozen until the time of your fishing session.
Basic cooked and spiced dough
As in the previous preparation, corn and wheat flour are used as a base and it can also be sweetened with honey and even sugar. The variant here is add a little egg white as a binder and marinate using garlic powder, ground mustard, or even a seasoning mix; even cheese can be used in this preparation.
A little dough is made, adding a few more drops of water if the dough requires it. Once the preparation is ready, balitas or cylinders are formed with the dough about 8 to 10 centimeters long. It is cooked in boiling water for about 15 minutes, then drained and left to dry. Storage is the same in the fridge.
These are simple, very basic and simple options to make at home as a variation of those that can be bought in stores and that you can use on your next fishing trip.
