Spoding

Spoding is a method where you can set a bed of bait at a long distance quite useful on all types of lake. A useful tool when you have time to prepare your swim, limited for fishing tournaments, used favourably at Devon’s Newbarn Farm Cottages and Angling Centre for Carp fishing, all in all a very useful fishing tip.

The Spod is shaped like a rocket and is weighted at one end so that when it hits the water it will turn up and release the bait.

The preferred baits for the Spod are particle baits, such as Sweet corn, Hemp, Pellet, Maggots etc.

The idea of the Spod is to fill the Spod with what ever you like, cast to an area and continue to do so until you have developed a bed of ground bait and then proceed to fish on top with preferred hook bait.

At Newbarn Farm Cottages and Angling Centre the method is used and will bring fish on to the feed. Some prefer to use bait boats, saying that you can be concise everytime with a bait boat, against casting a spode, sometimes complaining about the cost of spode tackle. We think that if casting inaccuracy is a problem you probably should be using the spode more and improving your casting, home made spodes are not expensive and can easily be made out of crafted, small water bottles, remember a spode cast is not a strange, expensive piece of electronic equipment. We will come onto bait boats later when we bring you more fishing tips.

Here is an example of an additive that is available for your Spod, but don’t forget your own concoctions can be more fun to research and sometimes amazingly effective. The description below is Sensas description, not mine.

Sensas Carp Spod Booster - Salty Sauce
Spod boosters increase the effectiveness of any spoding mix by adding nutritional feed inducing signals. By adding to both the pre soaked spod mix and the soaked spod mix these spod boosters will constantly leak off a complex of high mineral feed inducing signals over a greater period encouraging investigatory responses from cruising carp.

Also add spod boosters to both groundbaits and method mixes to again increase the effectiveness of the bait mix. When used as a spod additive it is impossible to over load the spod boosters into the mixes but 50ml to a kilo of mix is a good starting point.

The spod boosters can be used straight from the pot as a rig dip or put straight into a solid PVA bag for liquid baiting.

Salty Sauce - is a liquid feed additive primarily based on the mineral content in both salt variants and molluscs within the lake environment. It is often noted that carp are seen picking up and sucking stones and pebbles present within certain areas of the lake, these often transpose into catching hot spots. This is due to the carp attempting to find and ingest essential salts and minerals for the necessary growth and reconstruction process. Carp find salt and minerals by the change in water PH around the necessary salts and minerals, now we have it in a bottle. An accelerated PH adjuster.

And there are many more.

This should be a useful Devon fishing tip for carp fishing and some fishing tournaments, so get out your fishing license and go fishing.

Find out how to beat readymade baits by using butyric acid! It is one of the most well known bait and flavour components in carp fishing today, rated by Bill Cottam boss of Nutrabaits in his top ten. It is used alongside pineapple flavours in instant readymade baits. But how can you use it even more effectively than that? How much do you know about butyric acid that will improve your catches right now? This revealing article will really make you think!
The dynamics of oxygen production and use in a pond are complex and can be difficult to quantify. Plankton and algae in the water can produce some oxygen, but basing the oxygen consumption on only the organisms you are raising in the pond or lake will lead to under estimation, as wild organisms will inevitably occupy the same body of water. This leads to a need for sufficient aeration, and it has been shown that a fountain style or aerator is much more efficient than a paddle aerator, especially in brackish water. Pond aeration can make the difference between a swampy, stinking mess, and a healthy, thriving aquaculture with high production.
They say a bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. Fortunately, you're not likely to have a bad day fishing when you're surrounded by the natural beauty of the Journey Through Hallowed Ground Scenic Byway in Maryland (also known as the Catoctin Mountain Scenic Byway.) Take a day off and drive the route to fish-filled rivers, lakes, and ponds where you can let your line slack and your mind wander.
When you think of beaches, you probably don't immediately think of Idaho. A ride on the Pend Oreille Scenic Byway, however, will surely change that. Located in the northern tip of Idaho, this byway introduces you to miles of open shoreline, surrounding a vast lake filled with schools of fish. Bright green surrounds the beaches, throwing shadows in all the right places-the perfect setting for a day of fishing.
