Kennedy Wild Large Huge Hemp Seed

Large Hempseed as Fishing Bait Why it works: Hemp releases natural oils and amino acids that fish find irresistible. The small black seeds mimic tiny water insects, which carp, roach, and tench naturally feed on. It keeps fish grubbing around in the swim for ages. ? Preparation (Essential!) Raw hemp is too hard and can be harmful to fish, so you must soak and cook it: Soak: Cover hemp seeds with water and soak for 24 hours. Boil: Bring to a boil and simmer for 20–30 minutes until the seeds split and show a small white shoot (this is the “tail”). Optional: Add salt, sugar, or flavours (like chilli, garlic, or molasses) while cooking to boost attraction. Cool & store: Keep in the cooking water so the natural oils stay with the bait. ? How to Use Large Hemp Bait Loose feed: Catapult, spod, or bait dropper small handfuls to draw fish in. Hook bait: Hemp is small, so anglers often fish a grain or two of maize, tares, or artificial corn over a bed of hemp. Some advanced rigs use hemp on a hair rig with a baiting needle. Mixes: Combine hemp with maple peas, tiger nuts, or maize for a rich particle mix that holds carp in the swim.
