Humans are the most intelligent creatures, and to achieve their goals, they rack their brains to execute “enticement.” From the perspective of fishing, experts play around with the color, aroma, and flavor of baits, as well as working on the condition and shape. Today, we’ll introduce the methods and technical characteristics of baiting in Taiwan-style fishing. Don’t underestimate this little bit of skill—you’ll understand once you’ve fished more…
1. Pull Bait:
It has a relatively light specific gravity, a soft and resilient bait ball, good atomization, strong movement, and fast application.
It is suitable for catching smaller fish species. When fish have a light bite and the catch rate is high, pull bait is undoubtedly the first choice.

2. Sticky Hand-Mixed Bait
Sticky bait can avoid being chased by small fish, reach the fishing spot quickly, ensure there’s enough bait in the spot, and help keep fish lingering. It’s also aimed at larger fish species—the soft and sticky texture withstands waiting and is an important condition for catching big fish.
3. Loose Hand-Mixed Bait
Loose bait is a popular fishing method in recent years, focusing on “luring.” From the moment the bait hits the water to when it reaches the fishing spot, the entire journey serves as a fish-attracting zone. Fish will often gather around the fishing area, slowly picking up the scattered small particles. This method is suitable for waters with relatively large fish and less aggressive bites. Remember, use with caution where there are many small fish.
4. Sticky Pellets
Ponds often use pellet feed for feeding or baiting. For ponds with wary fish or annoying small fish, the sticky pellet method can be used. The pellets outside the bait can withstand collisions from small fish, and the pellets themselves can make wary fish lower their guard and feed more confidently.
5. Hooked Pellets
In most betting ponds, anglers use pellet feed to lure fish, making fish regard pellet feed as the safest and most reliable food. Especially for larger grass carp, black carp, and common carp, hooking pellets is both convenient and clean—also known as the “lazy angler’s method.”
