The following piece was written back in 1997 and first published in the March 2000 Edition of 'carp fisher', the magazine of the Carp Society. Current thinking along with my own knowledge on bait has progressed somewhat since it was first published, but much of the content remains as relevant today so I thought it would be better left in its original context for the pleasure of the reader;
A number of years ago, Alan Smith wrote an article entitled ‘Food Sources etc’ (Carpworld 66). For those of you who did not read it or, like the rest of us, have forgotten what it was about (this by no means suggests that it was a poor article!), the article addressed the issue of cyprinid memory span. Now consider what you have just read.You may well remember what you read last week or even last year, but I would guess that most of us cannot remember the exact contents of that particular article, but nevertheless we can still remember something that we did when we saw that particular article, and that is how to read! The reason for this seemingly bizarre opening paragraph will soon become clear. Why can we not remember the article? Simple. If we remembered everything we saw or did in life our heads would be, not to put too fine a point on it, full of bull!
Some of you reading this may well already have your doubts as to my sanity after reading this short passage, but I assure you that what I am trying to convey is a perfectly sane and logical concept. Our brains have two major filing systems; one is recyclable- the short term filing cabinet- and the other is where learned skills (reading, driving etc) are stored permanently until we need to use them again. In the latter cabinet we also store learned things which help us to recognise things again at a later date, such as smells. Consider blind people. They may well recognise particular people by their scent- not in the way a dog might, but by their aftershave or perfume. On a more basic level we recognise what the wife, girlfriend or mother is cooking when the smell drifts into the sitting room.
Now that I have hopefully set the scene, or not as the case maybe, I will start to put this into context with regard to angling. Mr Smith disagreed with the scientific belief that carp have a memory span of little more than the four seconds attributed to its ornamental cousin the goldfish. Now I myself agree with Mr Smith, but the way in which he substantiated this statement was somewhat lacking in scientific basis. He said that if this was true then a carp which had fed longer than 4 seconds ago would not be able to remember how to feed or what food was.
Consider the humble pond snail, Lymnea stagnalis. This creature does not even have a brain just a simple nervous system, but nevertheless it can still feed in response to encountering food and even alter the rate at which it feeds in response to the abundance of food in its aquatic environment. Simple experiments, which I myself conducted whilst gaining my BSc, show its so called ‘Bite rate’ is markedly elevated if the concentration of sucrose is increased in its environment. In its natural environment this elevation could be due to a broken stem of a lily pad allowing the sucrose rich fluid to leak out.
This recognition process does not occur via a conscious thought process but is due to molecular interactions at specific sites of sucrose recognition within the snail’s nervous system known as receptor sites. The recognition of the sucrose molecules within the environment occurs via a common mechanism in the living world known as the ‘lock and key mechanism’. This works in precisely the same way as a lock and key in that the sucrose molecule (the key) fits into the receptor molecule which is the lock. This will result in a small but detectable transmission of an electrical neural signal. In the case of the snail the signal is an increased firing rate of the nerves controlling the mouth. This then results in a concomitant increase in the feeding rate.
Well where is the significance of this fact in relation to carp fishing? The answer is that the carp shares this ability with the snail, the main difference being that the snail possesses little or no memory in the conventional sense but does possess the inherent ability to remember what food is via the ‘lock and key mechanism’. The carp also being an aquatic creature is much further down the evolutionary pathway than the snail, and therefore it too must possess this inherent ability to recognise food sources in its environment. However since the carp does have a proper brain, it must also have a memory of some sort, given that small mammals such as rats and mice can learn tricks!
Since the snail is part of the carp’s natural diet then whatever the snail ingests then a carp may use to recognise the snail. This may not be strictly true but it serves to highlight the simplicity of the system e.g. a snail recognises food via sucrose concentrations and a carp may also recognise food in this way leading it to the snail. A carp or any other fish for that matter, has evolved to survive in an aquatic environment and in order to do this has developed an inherent ability to recognise the smell of food. This therefore requires no memory but is an inherent ability developed by evolution. Put this into context, the ability has not been learned in the strictest sense but we can still put this skill into the long-term filing cabinet in the carp’s memory.
Those of you who have been involved in carp fishing for some years may well have read about the experiments conducted by Kevin Maddocks in a large fish tank in his own home. These simply involved the release of amino acids into the tank via tubes, which permeated the gravel on the bottom of the tank. Varying concentrations of varying amino acids produced startling reactions from the carp in the tank. The fish began to dive at the gravel and appeared to be trying to feed on the invisible food source. This reaction was undoubtedly attributed to the interaction these amino acids with the carps olfactory systems, via the ‘lock and key mechanism’. In nature these amino acids or smells would come from aquatic creatures such as bloodworms or crayfish or other aquatic plants or creatures for that matter. Thus the carp is able to recognise what is food and what isn’t.
Therefore if we are designing a bait to catch carp, it is a logical progression that we try to include some of these smells, or ingredients which mimic or emit these smells. The current trend of using natural ingredients in base mixes and baits has not been reached by coincidence but because of these early findings by people such as Kevin Maddocks. Ingredients such as green-lipped mussel extract, liver powder and molasses all contain molecules such as sucrose and amino acids, which the carp has evolved to recognise as having nutritional value.
This equation is a simple one to which we can all relate, however in our case we can be sure that the outcome is under our conscious control. For example, it is a Saturday night and you have had a few (not that I drink of course!). Next stop is Al Shieks Balti House but this is your first visit (you have only just started to drink by the sounds of it). Now it just so happens that your system rejects a 45in Naan bread and a Chicken Balti upon attempting to shovel it all in in under 5 minutes. This is made apparent by the regurgitated mess which greets the waiter when he brings you the bill. However you can gain some consolation from the fact that you managed to eat about half. That is until 10.25 a.m the following morning when you are stuck on the convenience and stuff is coming out of both ends, accompanied by a sensation much the same as rubbing half a tube of Fiery Jack over your anus. Now unless you are completely mad, you are not going to repeat this ritual of imbibing a gallon followed by intestinal sand blasting for at least a week .Well, maybe some of you could or even do, but believe me, if you wish to sustain such habits then their frequency is best kept to a minimum.
Again I apologise for slightly digressing but the above interlude does have direct relevance to the carp. For example, if a carp- which is a creature far less intelligent than ourselves (ugh, sorry, just a bit of chicken Balti stuck in my teeth from last night)- ingests something which is not conducive to long term survival, you can bet he probably wont eat it again in a hurry. For example your mate Dave (nothing against Dave’s) buckets in a load of peanuts which haven’t been soaked properly and proceeds to catch a few, I am confident in saying that he wont catch the same fish again for a while. This is because they will still be recovering from eating Dave’s nuts. However if he had opted for the use of a good nutritious boilie containing more natural attractors than the humble peanut, he may well go back to the same water and catch the same fish the next day. ‘Why?’ I hear you ask. The reason is simply that nine out of ten carp when asked to express a preference prefer boilie to Balti. No seriously, it is because if the boilie contains natural attractors such as green lipped mussel extract or kelp extract, in addition to good quality protein, such as fishmeal, then it will have a far greater nutritional value to the carp than peanuts.
In addition to this it will already be one step ahead of the peanut in that the carp has evolved to recognise this food by nature and thus it will be more attractive to the fish. Although the peanut will be emitting substances which stimulate the carp’s olfactory system, including lipids, sugars and amino acids, these will not necessarily be mimicking natural foods such as mussels, crayfish and weed.
This 22lb 9oz fish was taken after a bait containing green lipped mussel extract was heavily baited during the closed season. This choice of attractor was used as over the years the lake has been home to large numbers of swan mussels.
Some of what I have written is scientifically proven and much of it I can substantiate through personal experience. For example on the first water I seriously fished for carp, I began to use my own bait which contained natural ingredients and was of high nutritional value. I designed the bait using the basic HNV principle proposed by Fred Wilton, but followed the in vogue trend of replacing the vast majority of the milk proteins with a good quality fishmeal. In addition to this I also included some known attractors which I thought would enhance the bait even further. The final recipe consisted of the following major ingredients
White Fishmeal
Full Fat Soya Flour (binder)
Lactalbumin
Rennet Casein
Robin Red
Seaweed Extract
The bait was an instant success on the water, resulting in an opening night catch of 7 fish for 102lb including fish up to 20lb 6oz. Now this was a good result for the water and I totally out fished all the other anglers on the water that night.
Unfortunately due to work commitments and a loss of interest in the water I did not fish many times that season but when I did the bait out fished the others again (after a little prebaiting).In addition to this I fished another new water and the bait was an instant success there without any prebait and fishing against an established bait. In a quick overnighter I took an upper double and a scraper when the regulars took one fish of 9lb’s.
The bait was an instant success taking this mid double and a scraper on a quick overnighter.no prebait was done and regular anglers were also fishing on an established bait, which only accounted for a 9lber on the same night
Last season again I fished the old water on opening night and although only two of us were fishing in close proximity I took 5 fish to 19lb to his one tench! This year I have revisited the old water once again using the same bait and got three runs unfortunately resulting in only one fish to the one run of my companion who was coincidentally using ready-mades.
Let us go back to the issue of memory and the recognition of foodstuffs by the carp. The vast majority of carp anglers these days use boilies due to the obvious advantages they have over conventional baits, such as resistance to nuisance fish and ease of catapulting over long distances. However I personally think they have far greater advantages than these, given the vast array of knowledge and ingredients available to today’s angler, which I shall discuss later. Now concerning memory, when a situation arises where our bait is catching really well on a water to the exclusion of others, what is the reason?
A switch to an already established fishmeal bait produced this my first 20 within a matter of weeks. Previously, using an inferior bait, I was mainly catching mid double fish.
No doubt many anglers will have varied opinions on this but there are certain prerequisites which I feel the bait must meet in order to be consistent fish catchers. First of all they must be metabolically friendly, by this I am simply referring to the curry catastrophe analogy used earlier. Once eaten the bait the bait must make the carp feel better than the other available options if it is to be taken in preference to these over prolonged periods of time. This will only be achieved if the ingredients meet the fishes dietary requirements. A well nourished carp will for all intents and purposes be a healthy carp. Granted, individual fish may be more predisposed to illnesses by their genetics, just as humans are, but just as we can influence our health by our diet so can carp. The fundamental difference is that we consciously control what and when we eat whereas a carp is a slave to its system.
The carp is an exothermal, or cold blooded, animal whereas we are not, maintaining a constant body temperature of 370C. Now, like all cold blooded creatures the carp’s metabolism slows down if the ambient temperature is lowered. This is reflected in a reduction in the frequency and rate of feeding and vice verse if the temperature is increased. This perfectly highlights the carp’s lack of control over dietary intake; it simply feeds when its system tells it to. This process is under hormonal control. Without going into vast detail, the levels of certain hormones fluctuate in the carp’s blood system depending upon its fed state. These in turn send messages to the carp’s brain which result in the fish either actively seeking food or, if we are unlucky, refusing point blank to feed even if food is available.
Now the question is, even if the fish is hungry and a nutritionally sound bait (which it has encountered before) containing some natural attractors is offered, does it remember this is a good source of food or does its inherent ability to do this tell it to feed on this? I will not even attempt to answer this one way or the other because too many variables are involved. However what I will say is that the likelihood of the fish taking this bait is far greater than it would be if it didn’t contain natural attractors which the carp is genetically predisposed to recognise. Some may argue that they have watched fish home in on their bait and therefore they must recognise the smell of it. Now this maybe so, I don’t know. Personal experience has on a few occasions led me to believe this when runs have occurred instantly when using a bait that has been prebaited. Being of a scientific background, however I prefer to explain it away using the natural attraction theory along with the metabolically friendly theory. If we employ these then they can in turn be used to explain this phenomenon fully.
Repeat captures can and do occur when using a good quality bait.This 19lb+ fish was taken twice within the space of a few weeks on the same bait
For example, you have introduced a few pounds of a well designed bait into a 3 acre lake every 3 days for two weeks prior to fishing. Importantly no one else has been fishing either but they have been prebaiting. Now if your bait is the best, with respect to its nutritional value and natural attraction, then the carp which have been feeding on it will still avidly feed on it when you start to fish, provided conditions are favourable and your approach to the situation is sensible. Therefore even if no memory is involved, as the fish have become confident in eating these little balls of food they will readily accept them again when they come across them in the future because its whole system is working efficiently whilst running on this fuel.
In addition to this just as the birds will return to the garden where they regularly find bread so will the carp return to the area where they have found food. Now you may argue that this does require memory because how can the fish remember where it found food? This is true and I think they have a memory for such things otherwise why would we always lose them in the same snags? That is another article anyway, which I might try should this one go down well! Back to the food. I prefer to think that fish will remain in the area if food is presented regularly or at least visit the area on a regular basis. Well that’s my theory at least, and it sounds sensible to me!
Hopefully this piece may help some of the more inexperienced anglers design a bait for themselves and save a few quid. However this saving of a few quid does mean that bait making will involve more than just opening a bag and adding eggs, but nevertheless, it does introduce a new dimension to your hobby. In addition I hope to have introduced a few new ideas and facts to the minds of the more experienced students of the science of carp fishing out there.
