Has anyone tried making a paste bait for barbel as they do in the UK?I want to try it so was wondering if anyone had any experience on it.My idea is to make two types of paste baits(minced pigeon,chicken blood and fishmeal) and (minced chicken liver and day old chicks,chicken blood and fishmeal).i want to hook these on a hair to get the barbel to eat it a lot quicker and easier.My idea behind this is maybe monster barbel are as clever as big carp and spit the bait or leave it if they feel a hook or detect danger.
Any thoughts on this?
