Crucian carp is considered one of the most common freshwater inhabitants of Russian reservoirs. In order to catch him, fishermen use a variety of baits and baits. This fish is known to be a big fan of dough. And although the recipe for such a bait and its preparation are simple, but it gives truly amazing results.
However, the use of ordinary dough as a bait is fraught not only with an excellent catch. This bait has both its advantages and disadvantages. And its main disadvantage, as experienced fishermen believe, is that the dough, poorly kept on the hook, often easily flies from it when casting. Apparently, that’s why carp is so common among professionals. Cooking this bait does not take much time, but it gives amazing results.
Bait description
The crucian shrine, the preparation of which involves the presence of a variety of plant components in the recipe, is very similar to children's plasticine by touch. It is also suitable for fishing with other varieties of lake or river fish. The shawl should be viscous and thick. This bait should stay perfectly on the hook and not fly off even with the farthest cast. This is precisely its main difference from the usual test.
Potato recipe
This bait is used mainly in the warm season. It doesn’t take a lot of time to prepare a potato trowel for crucian carp. The main thing in the process is to stick to the recipe. Potatoes (six pieces cooked in their uniforms), a loaf of bread, better than rye, corn grits, sunflower oil or corn - this is what this carp grinder consists of. Preparation according to this recipe is as follows: first, the main ingredients are twisted in a meat grinder. Then porridge is prepared from a glass of corn grits. After that, all the components are mixed and again twisted through a meat grinder. The resulting mass must be carefully crushed until then, until it ceases to stick to the hands. Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil and mix well again. This is how potato mash for carp is prepared. Cooking with this recipe is the easiest.
"From Mikhalych"
There are many cooking options for this surprisingly simple, but very subtle bait. Moreover, most often pea or flour from it is necessarily present in the composition. The most popular carp carp today is “From Mikhalych”. The preparation of this pea test according to an individual recipe was to the liking of many lovers of white fish. The Ot Mikhalych monastery is used as a bait for both river and lake fish - bream, carp, roach, as well as hustlers and others. It is considered the best bait for those bottom gear that use a spring.
In addition to peas, semolina is necessarily present in the recipe. If desired, you can add honey, sugar and sunflower oil. Some in the composition of their own hand-made trowels add food colors and flavors. Thanks to the use of such components, the smell of the bait becomes stronger and attracts prey better. And this, in turn, leads to a rich catch.
Training
All that is needed is better prepared in advance. This is necessary so that the preparation of pea mastic, such as crucian carp, bream, bream, etc., goes quickly so that the person who will carry out this process is not distracted in search of the necessary components or related items. Having prepared everything in advance, it will be possible to get this incredibly catchy bait in a maximum of an hour. The preparation of a carp for fishing for crucian carp according to this recipe involves the presence of an aluminum three-liter pan for cooking peas, a coffee grinder to speed up the process, an enameled bowl in which you have to mix the components, linen or cotton fabric, food bags and a wooden crush.
Having prepared all of the above items, you can start preparing the products necessary for this bait. The peas must be sorted out and the bad peas thrown away. It is better to take semolina as dry as possible, without lumps. Honey must be fresh and of high quality. They say that the shelf life is increased this way, and this is quite relevant for such a natural bait as a carp carp.
Cooking
This process is quite simple. The fisherman should, with a little patience, clearly adhere to the recommendations. So, washing well with about two hundred grams of peas, you need to leave it to soak. Moreover, the water level in the pan must be made a few centimeters above the level of the poured cereal. After the soaking has passed, the container with peas is put on fire. When the water boils, you need to close the pan with a lid and continue to cook, stirring peas from time to time, which should become soft enough. Then the croup with the help of a pusher turns into mashed potatoes.
In the resulting mass, you need to add a teaspoon of sugar and honey, as well as a little dye. Constantly mixing the mashed potatoes, you must ensure that it does not burn. Readiness is determined by the appearance of bubbles on the surface. After this, the pan is removed from the burner and two handfuls of semolina and one flour are added to the mixture, as well as vegetable oil.
We use pea flour
For those who are running out of time, another recipe is more suitable. A pea flour shrine (for crucian carp), the preparation of which involves the use of a coffee grinder, will be ready much faster. To do this, grind the peas well. After that, porridge should be cooked from flour, and the remaining steps are similar to the previous recipe.
After waiting for the mastic to cool, you need to make balls. It is better to put them in pre-prepared dishes, at the bottom of which the fabric is laid. From time to time, these balls should be turned over so that they cool evenly. The shrine according to this recipe turns yellow and has a specific pea smell. She should not stick to her hands. Good holding on the hook, withstanding several casts - such characteristics should have a high-quality carp grinder.
Microwave cooking
Reviews on the catchability of this bait are all as one positive. Without it, not a single fishing for crucian carp takes place , especially in the warm season. That is why many, when going to a pond, prefer to quickly prepare a mastic, using a microwave. For this recipe you will need pea flour and semolina - half a glass of each. After pouring the cereals into a plate and mixing thoroughly, you need to pour them with a glass of boiling water. The result should be a homogeneous slurry, without lumps. After that, the plate is placed in the microwave for two to three minutes. The shrine is ready: it remains to wait until it has completely cooled, add flavorings, such as vanilla or chocolate, and then mold the balls and carefully lay them out on a cotton cloth.
Advice
Pea paste has been used by fishers for a long time, so many people today know how to cook it. During this time, experienced carp hunters have more than one secret, how to improve the cooking process. For example, don’t be upset if the trowel burns a little: this does not affect the quality characteristics of the bait.
You can add onion, garlic, halva, dill, corn sticks, etc. to the composition. But you should get carried away with flavorings, as they can scare away prey with excessive pungent odor.
Storage
The tartar should be stored by wrapping it in a clean piece of cloth and putting it in a food bag. The bait should be in a cool place, protected from direct sunlight. If fishing is not soon, then you can put it in the refrigerator. With proper observance of the cooking recipe, the trowel can be stored for quite some time in the freezer. About ten hours before use, it must be removed and transferred to the lower chamber of the refrigerator so that it unfrosts evenly.
Fishing
The shrine is hooked so that the sting and beard are hidden inside the ball. Otherwise, the fish, pricked, can spit out the bait. In this case, do not make the balls be too big. If there is no hooking for a long time, then you need to roll up the bait with a smaller diameter. It is possible that the fish simply cannot swallow a large ball.
Experienced anglers put a piece of a mastic on small hooks, which is similar in shape to maggot. This trick works fine with temporary bite worsening. The tartar can be used along with other baits, for example with a maggie sandwich. In this case, pea dough is attached closer to the sting.
