The role of the groundbait
The groundbait is a mix of flours, crushed seeds, and attractants, moistened and then thrown into the fishing spot. As it breaks down on the bottom, it creates a nutritious and aromatic cloud that attracts the fish and holds them in the area, close to the hook. It's the foundation of pole fishing and feeder fishing. It is gradually moistened, allowed to rest, and then sieved to achieve a uniform texture.
Other baits
Baits also come in various forms:
All baits are gathered on the baits page.
Sonubaits and the method
Sonubaits, a British pole fishing brand, offers groundbaits for every technique: the Match Method Mix, light or dark, for method feeder fishing, where the groundbait is molded around a special weight with the hook in the center, the Super Feeder and the Natural Big Fish for larger fish, the Ready Feeder Scopex ready to use. The O's pellets, F1 Stiki Method, and floating or sinking Band'um baits complete the groundbaiting.
PVA and pastes
PVA bags and nets, like the Nash Speedload, Fox Fast Melt, or Korda Funnel Web, dissolve in water: filled with pellets or seeds and attached to the hook, they deposit a small mound of groundbait just around the setup, a favorite technique among carp fishers. The heavy tungsten paste Fox holds the rig down on the bottom. The brightly coloured Trout Master paste attracts trout in stocked waters. Keep the PVA dry, as even a hint of moisture will dissolve it.

Frequently asked questions
How to prepare groundbait for pole fishing?
Gradually moisten the groundbait by mixing it by hand, let it rest for about twenty minutes, then sift it. It should hold together in a tight ball and break down on the bottom.
What quantity of groundbait to prepare for a fishing session?
For a half-day of pole fishing, one to two kilos of dry groundbait are usually sufficient. Start off by baiting more heavily, then use small, regular balls to keep the fish interested.
What is method fishing?
The groundbait and pellets are molded around a special feeder, with the bait placed on top. The Sonubaits Match Method Mix and the F1 Stiki Method pellets are designed for this technique.
What are PVA bags and nets used for?
PVA dissolves in water in seconds: bait or pellets are placed around the hook. The Nash, Fox, or Korda bags therefore deposit a small mound of groundbait exactly on the setup.
What groundbait to use for trout?
The trout paste Trout Master, soft and colourful, is shaped around the hook and floats above the bottom. It is suitable for fishing in ponds or stocked waters, where trout hunt in the water column.
