my cousin has just asked me to go and do a night fish with him tonight on are local lake named big lake in whiston not a big head of carp however the carp in there are mostly double figuresup to 30+lb so i finish work at 7pm and hopefully leave the house at around 7:30pm the weather has been perfect all day dull,warm and humid lets see how it goes.

hey everyone, just got back from a session after trying out some homemade boilies,

I handrolled about 100 for hookbaits and then rolled about 1.8kg of the boilie mix snakes, made them nice and thin so there wouldnt be any huge bits, then started simply chopping away with a knife,

took about 500grams of the smaller almost trout pellet like bait, mixed with a good kilo and a half of corn and used that as my groundbait,

advantage of this is, your throwing in a smaller sample of what your boilie taste is, so you dont overfeed the carp and keep them searching for more, hopefully to come across the same scent in the shape of a little round ball ;)

had 3 nice fish today, 2 others managed to get me into the lillys and spit me, was only fishing for 6 hours or so, first was a 12lb common second was a 10lb common and the 3rd was a 7lb common,

just thought id share this for those of us who handroll our boilies and I hope it helps, thanks for...
