The bait used for fishing needs to be decided according to different seasons, different fish species and different scenarios, and there is no fixed choice.

When the weather is hot, light-scented and mildly scented baits are relatively good; in autumn and winter when the weather is colder, you can choose fishy-smelling bait.

For catching common carp and crucian carp, bloodworms, earthworms and commercial baits are all good choices. If you are fishing for silver carp and bighead carp, sour and stinky baits are mainly used. If you want to catch big fish, you also need to prepare some loose bait to make a nest.
