Hemp is the number one particle bait for carp fishing. Hemp has a highly attractive oily sweet taste making it irresistible to carp. Even small amounts of Hemp will keep carp feeding for hours particularly in silty areas. It is a great attractor due to its high oil content and due to its crunchy taste which carp find irresistible.

Hemp and be used with great success when used in combination with other particles. It can be either put in a PVA Bag or a Spod for fishing at range or catapulted small distances into the margins. If you are using a PVA Bag don’t dry the hemp out (dry hemp tends to float) add some groundbait or crushed hemp as this will absorb some of the moisture and stop the bag from melting before you want.
