Bait

Boilies (Normally Mainline) are available from a local tackle shop in Waddington, However you are welcome to bring your own boilies to site.

Each angler will be provided with 10 lbs of cooked maize per day at no extra cost. If you need extra corn it will be supplied at a cost of $5 per 10 lb bucket.

We would advise that each angler should either take with them, or purchase locally, a minimum of 10 kgs of boilies per week. Although many fish have been caught by anglers simply taking hookbaits to site.

Baiting ideas

The way we bait our swims is to run the corn through in the morning with a scattering of boilies and then again about lunchtime (You can't over bait with these fish and they will obviously visit a spot more regularly if they are finding a steady supply of food).

Tackle

The tackle we use is UK sourced and of the highest quality and is predominantly Fox International, we also use Wychwood, Quantum, GFA, Gardner, and Shakespeare equipment. Use of this equipment and is includeed in the price of the cabin,trailor and bivvy packages. Typical setup includes: 12" 3.5lb TC Carp rods, Big pit style freespool reels, Tripod/rod rests with bite alarms, Landing net, Unhooking mat, Weigh sling, Umbrella, Chairs etc. However we do not supply end tackle and reccomend that you either bring it out with you, although you can purchase accessories from our on site store

Tackle Shop

We have an on site tackle shop where it is possible to purchase end tackle such as Braid, Hooks, Leads, Safety Clips, Tail Rubbers, PVC Tubing etc in addition bait. Ther are also local stores where you can purchase other items of tackle.

Note

Many products (particularly clothing) are significantly cheaper in the U.S. so it may be an idea to bring some spending money with you. One of the most popular purchases is the Realtree clothing from Wallmart in either Massenna or Ogdensburg.
