How was the smell of your corn. I was hoping you would talk about the smell since you rinsed your corn this time
Fresh feed corn should not smell like vomit. The only way the corn should smell like vomit is after it spoils several weeks after you cook it. Which depends on the outside temperature. I have found in my experience that the vomit corn is less effective then a plain cooked
@@JL-vp2nb The longer you let it set the better it is after 1-2 days should start to get cloudy white in the bucket it is the corns natural sugars coming out. Don’t add any flavor at all you don’t need to also..
When you buy the fresh feed corn corn it shouldn't stink. I'm guessing what happened to you was you cook the corn and it started for fermenting. If you put a little bit more salt in it it won't go off and smell like vomit. I honestly don't like the vomit corn. You should never rinse the corn before you cook it. Because you're washing away a lot of the sugars and starches that help attract the fish and give it a good flavor. I cook mine on an instant pot and then later add sugar and salt when I put it in the bucket.
J L Idk if you will see this comment 8 months after you posted (idk how youtube notifications work) but I have been trying this boiling method (2 times now) and my feed corn either cooks to the bottom and makes it all smell burnt, or I lower the heat (electric burner) and it doesn't boil enough. Is my pot too thin? I don't have an instant pot, but I am thinking about using my crock pot next.
Great video man. I've been looking for a way to make feed corn soft because I've been boiling it for hours and it's still hard lol
This is not a good video. No offense to the videographer. The dry feed corn should never smell like vomit. He did not properly store the cooked corn and it went off. Especially when it gets hot the corn will start to go off the hotter it gets the faster it goes off
I remember the old days of carp fishing with my dad and we used corn out of a can and thread that onto a hook. I don't know if people still do that, but it's interesting to see how carp fishing has evolved.
Great channel!!
That is certainly still a common and viable technique! Pressured carp may require something a little different though. Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!
I thawed out a bag of frozen corn once and had 10 - 12 come in shallow water a foot or so deep to get it.
The votmit smell you are referring to is butyric acid formed during fermentation that is highly attratable for carp and other fish. I want that smell on my corn. Carp aren't humans and smell with their entire body. Butyric acid is a food signal letting carp know something highly digestible is near by. Research research research and be inventive instead of following the heard. Being different is the key to tournament fishing.
Is that just for chum? Or do you put that on the hook or hair rig also? I ask because I am wondering should I boil it that long if I want to put it on the hook? Will it stay on the hook that soft? Thanks.. I appreciate it..
Good tips ty. I want to try feed corn so now I know to wash it and sort it a little. TY
Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for watching!
why do you have to boil it ? i was thinking of using it for hook bait on a hair rig but i want th3en hard ish the crafty carp take then off so easy
It still harder than the canned corn. Some of the Kernels w be a bit more in tact after the boil. Take them out to use as hook bait. The others you can use as chum or mix some in the pack bait..Also they sell a higher quality feed corn thats been pre-washed it cost $2-$3 more buts worth it..
I'm going to try this out this spring.
