Summer Bait Tip: Marmite Floaters for Carp Fishing
Struggling with carp mouthing floaters but not taking them keenly enough to
get a hook into one?
A while ago when I was doing a lot of surface fishing I discovered that a
pot of Marmite could help make the difference and pull a positive take or two
out the bag on days when the carp were being really difficult.

| Add Marmite! |
After mounting a dog biscuit or pellet, simply push it into the Marmite and
roll it around to create a sticky yeasty ball. Too many times for it to be
coincidence a carp would absolutely nail the Marmite hooker as soon as it went
out, instead of playing daft games like they had previously.
Cheap and deadly, and it works with bottom baits too. Just be careful,
Marmite is dense and too much on a bait and you’ll make a floater into a
sinker!
Oh, and you’ll need a hand towel, you can’t help but get covered in the
stuff. As will your reel handle, rod butt, shorts, everything!
