Carp Bait

When it comes to carp bait, there are various options to choose from, including boilies, pellets, and sweetcorn.

Boilies are a popular carp bait and come in different flavours and sizes. They consist of different ingredients, including fishmeal, flavours, and attractors, which make them an irresistible meal for carp. Pellets are another effective carp bait, and they come in different sizes and flavours, making them versatile for different fishing situations.

Sweetcorn is a cheaper alternative to boilies and pellets and can attract carp, especially in heavily fished waters where carp are accustomed to seeing commercial carp bait. At The Bait Room, we have a wide selection of carp bait to choose from, and our experts can help you select the best option for your carp fishing needs.

Carp Fishing Rigs

A carp fishing rig is a vital part of your angling setup. It consists of a hook, a hooklink, and a lead or weight, which all work together to help you catch the carp.

There are different carp fishing rigs available, including the hair rig, the chod rig, and the hinged stiff rig. Each rig is designed to present the bait in a different way, and choosing the right rig depends on the bait you're using, the fishing environment, and the carp's behaviour.

Our experts at The Bait Room can help you select the right fishing rig and show you how to set it up correctly to improve your chances of catching.
