| Ok here goes, me and my husband were fishing on the bridgewater canal

Bread is only good for SunFish, some Perch and Carp.

Regular worms, nightcrwlers and live lining bait fish are your better
baits.
You can also add to that; grasshoppers, mealworms and leeches.


Dough balls (bread) of a variety of mixes are great for carp.
