These simple, homemade carp bait recipes work great in hooking those big carp fish. So if you are planning your next carp fishing trip then try these recipes for sure.

One of the largest members of the minnow family, carps are the most commonly found fish in the waters of America and around the world. Although found in abundance, fishing for these hardy species of fish can be quite a taxing affair. This is because these fish have been known to be great fighters and can test your true fishing skills on a light tackle. Although carp fishing can happen the year round, they are known to be much more active in warmer water. The best bait for carps are sweet corn and simple bread dough. In addition to this, the recipes for carp bait can include hotdogs, cut baits, worms, prepared dough baits, and cheese.
