Sorry but I have to laugh when I hear about homemade corn or maize flour type baits actually being used for competition carp fishing! (Fishing matches or tournaments are not the limit of competing, as we are all fishing against fish instincts - which is why you need to exploit them by using better baits!) 

Corn or maize baits are about the least nutritionally attractive of any baits you can possibly choose as competitive baits! You can do a quantum level better than this – so read on now and benefit from being much more open-minded about producing winning homemade baits!

Although maize or corn baits have good palatability, comparatively speaking they offer carp laughable levels of vital nutritional stimulation! So it is no surprise if you cannot win competitions, are catching less big carp or cannot get bites on such baits - while other fishermen fishing next to you are using superior baits going on to win instead.

You might or might not use cheap maize baits or basic semolina and soya flavoured baits. You often find that many bigger fish start avoiding such baits when more nutritionally stimulating baits are fished on the same water! Why do carp anglers keep on thinking like carp anglers instead of seeing things completely from the perspective of all carp senses combined? When your bait stimulates all the known carp senses simultaneously you can be sure not only they will be very aware of your baits in terms of actually detecting it, finding it and treating it as food very good to eat but they will want more and more of it.

With cheap low nutritional value baits it really is very often the case that unless you are using absolutely tonnes of the stuff to try and dominate a water, then more highly nutritionally-stimulating baits will dominate catches and big fish captures. This effect can be truly to the degree that the low nutritional baits fail completely to get bites. (Many of you reading this will be aware of this from personal experience!)

If you want to catch more fish and numbers of them then using maize protein alongside any of a multitude of protein dense ingredients will certainly help you especially if you include soluble proteins too (liquid proteins are invaluable too.) Very often so many anglers are still fixated by attraction by solvent-based flavours instead of very specifically exploiting stimulation by natural true feeding trigger-rich additives and ingredients that carp are especially sensitive to and feed extremely intensively in response to! Maize contains no vitamin B12 and B12 is one of the most important vitamins required in regards actual vitality and metabolism. (There are a few exceptional sources of natural water-soluble vitamin B12 however!....)

Maize is famous for having a low protein concentration of only around 7 to 11 percent of the kernel weight. Its protein quality is limited by deficiencies in some essential amino acids and most significantly for carp lysine and tryptophan. But what is less well known is that maize like many cereals grains contain an excess of certain essential amino acids that influence the efficiency of protein utilization. For instance maize has an excess of leucine that limits the uptake of other amino acids. In fact the levels of protein and limiting amino acids in maize can be influenced in negative ways by the use of nitrogen fertilisers.

If you look at the nutritionally-stimulating benefits of maize, apart from the starch and sugars, most of them are found in the part of the grain that contains the potent live components that actually germinate to form a new plant (so this part is what you really will benefit far more by using!) Also the seed coat contains things like carotenoids and soluble fibre maize protein products based on the endosperm part of maize is so useful it is now an extremely useful protein food in human nutritional terms as well as a far more sustainable protein source than things like fish and marine meals for instance.

I would much rather fish a bait rich in maize protein such as Super Gold 60, plus a high content of liquidised liver or better still concentrated or enzyme-treated liver powder bound by yellow maize meal in a bait with no flavour, than simply use flavoured corn dough balls! Nutritional stimulation works big-time and has genuinely made all the difference between failing to get any bites at all and winning competitions!
