Bait Recipe's

Cinnamon Doughball

- Pour in a measuring cup, then in a bowl, 1 cup corn meal, plus 1 cup white flour, 2 teaspoons sugar, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Mix together.

- On high heat, bring 1 1/4 cups of water to a boil in a heavy medium-sized saucepan. Add mixed ingredients to the boiling water and stir until all the water is absorbed.

- To finish, pour the mix onto wax paper. Roll into 2 baseball sized balls. If too hard, add a little more water. If too soft, add more corn meal. The dough must be able to stick readily to the hook.

Topwater Carp

- Fill a zipplock bag with 30 dry chunky-style dog food nuggets the night before the trip. Add 3 teaspoons of water and some attractant. Strawberry Koolaid works fine. Blow the bag full of air, then seal it. Give it a good shake. By morning, the bait will be soft and be able to stick readily to the hook, above water.
