Pellets & Groundbait
Pellets & Groundbait are the basis of every feeding area
Pellets and groundbait are the foundation of almost every successful session. Whether you want to create an instant spot or build up a water over several days, the right pellets and groundbait will keep carp on your spot and feeding for longer.
At Carp-Shop you will find a carefully selected range of pellets and groundbait specifically for carp fishing.
Why Pellets and Groundbait are so effective
Pellets and groundbait create immediate activity on the swim. They (partially) dissolve, release their scent and flavor, and create a feeding signal that attracts and retains carp.
Advantages at a glance:
-
Fast scent distribution under water
-
Suitable for short and long sessions
-
Perfect for PVA, spod, bait boat or hand baiting
-
Easy to combine with other baits
Pellets and groundbait are often used in conjunction with Boilies, Grubs or Particles to create variety and confidence at the feeding site.
Pellets, small bait, big effect
Pellets come in all sizes, compositions, and dissolution times. It's precisely this variety that makes them so effective.
Different types of pellets
-
Instant pellets : dissolve quickly and provide immediate attraction
-
Harder pellets : stay in the water longer and keep carp on the spot
-
Mini pellets : ideal for PVA bags and stick mixes
Pellets work best in:
-
Spod mixes
-
PVA sticks
-
Around your rig as a feeding spot
Perfect to combine with our liquids to enhance the attraction.
Groundbait, activity and confidence in the spot
Groundbait is often underestimated in carp fishing, but it can make all the difference. It creates visual activity, spreads scent, and keeps carp feeding longer without quickly saturating them.
When do you use groundbait?
-
On heavily fished waters
-
For cold water or winter fishing
-
For instant cuttings
-
In combination with pellets and boilies
Groundbait is ideal for use with a method feeder, in PVA or as the base for a spod mix.

Smart combinations for better results
Make your own mix
A strong feeding spot is often created by a combination:
-
Pellets + groundbait
-
Pellets + crumbed boilies
-
Groundbait + liquids
By adding liquids you enhance the smell and taste without adding extra food.
Keep it subtle
More feeding isn't always better. Especially on high-pressure waters, a small, compact feeding area with pellets and groundbait can be much more effective than kilos of bait.
In combination with your hook bait
Pellets and groundbait work well in combination with:
-
Wafters for subtle presentation
-
Pop-ups for extra visibility
-
Hookbaits for maximum focus on your rig
This ensures that your hookbait always remains the centre of attention at the feeding area.
