I must confess I did not take the picture. It is one that Larry took. I am sure you were not asleep, but as soon as I saw it I just had to put a caption to it and post it up. Caught Pat off guard Larry "nice one" Trev.

Hello Larry.
You are correct it keeps almost indefinitely if kept dry. Once moistened it does start to deteriorate quite quickly. I have found ground bait kept in the refrigerator for up to 1 week is still ok. After this I throw it out, bacteria attacks B and basically kills it. What you can do, is if the bait still looks ok is to add some more B to it before use.
Hope this helps.
Trev.

Hello Larry.
I am not sure which footage this is from. I think it is from when we filmed on the south bank. If it is the water temperature was somewhere in the 90's. We fished 2 swims to the left of the boat ramp "when facing the water". I had my seatbox set up in the water and waded slightly to get to it, and the water was like bath water walking in it with flip flops on. We set the camera up 10 metres from my box in about 3 feet of water, and tried to fish up tight to it. The main problem was the strong under current kept pulling as away from the camera, I was fishing the pole which does help to keep in the correct place to some degree. I had a 1.5 gm float on, which is quite large when only fishing in 3 feet of water, but was required to keep the presentation of the bait good. If I would have had a 2gm float in my box I would have put in on, but 1.5 was the heaviest I had with me.

Hi Jamie.
I have chopped worm, corn & meat before, but never maggot or caster. I will have to keep those ones in mind for future reference.

Hello Larry.
The other thing I have found, even fishing back home in southern England, the larger fish seen to react to cold snaps more than smaller fish. If this pit has only a few very large carp in it, it would come to no surprise to myself that they have become very hard to catch, or even induce to feed at the moment. This cold weather slows them down so much, that they stop roaming around, and move very shot distances to conserve energy. Hence if you were not sitting on top of them from the start, trying to pull them into your swim, is almost a no go. hope this helps to shed some light onto your situation.

I must be slipping Pat, as I have never caught a turtle from Braidwood. One in my swim and I missed it, shame on me LOL. I will lose my title of turtle expert if I am not careful.

I have never tried chopped maggot. Actually to be honest I have never heard of it being done before. Just shows a few years away from Old Blighty and it all changes.

Nick
I am sure spraying them would work well also, as long as they do not get too wet.
