A good particle mix is a versatile and highly attractive feed for carp and larger coarse fish. It usually combines seeds, grains and pulses such as maize, hemp seed, wheat, maple peas, mung beans, dari and tiger nuts. These mixes are ideal for building an active feeding spot full of scent, colour, texture and natural food signals.
Why choose a particle mix?
The strength of a particle mix lies in the variety of small food items. The mix spreads over the bottom and keeps fish feeding for longer without filling them up too quickly. This increases the chance that carp or coarse fish eventually pick up your hookbait.
- Highly attractive through scent, colour and movement
- Long-lasting activity on the swim without overfeeding
- Selective effect when larger particles such as tiger nuts are included
- Perfect for spodding, bait boats or loose feeding by hand
- Easy to combine with boilies or pellets for extra variety
What is usually in a particle mix?
The exact recipe differs by brand, but common ingredients include hemp seed, maize, tiger nuts, wheat, dari, maple peas, mung beans and pigeon conditioner.
Ready-to-use or dry particles?
Ready-to-use particle mixes are soaked, cooked and ready to fish. Dry mixes give you more control, but must be soaked and boiled correctly before use.
Combine particle mix with particles, maize, hemp seed, tiger nuts, boilies and fishing pellets.
