At KC Baits, fishing is more than just catching carp — it’s about community, tradition, and sharing knowledge with those who will carry it forward.
Last week, Ki, the hands behind our handmade baits, stepped into a different kind of fishing spot — a local fishing school in Norwich, UK — to share his knowledge with children through boilie making lessons.
The session kicked off with a table full of boilie mix, flavours, and vibrant pop-up colours. The air was thick with curiosity as eager young anglers gathered around, ready to get their hands messy.
Ki began by explaining the basics:
What boilies are and why they work so well for carp fishing.
The role of ingredients in attracting fish.
How different flavours and colours can make a difference on the water.
This wasn’t just a demonstration. It was a hands-on workshop — every child rolled, shaped, and crafted their very own pop-ups.
As the bowls emptied and the bait pots filled, something else was being made — memories.
Fishing isn’t just about the sport. It’s about:
Patience – learning that good things take time.
Respect for nature – understanding how to look after our waterways.
Community – knowing that the best catches are often the friendships made along the way.
Ki’s message was clear: “You’re not just making bait — you’re becoming part of the fishing story.”
At the end of the session, Ki handed each child a pot of their own handmade pop-ups.
The smiles said it all — they weren’t just taking home bait; they were taking home a skill they could use on the bank for years to come.
These pop-ups will be used for their own fishing trips, but the real catch of the day was the confidence and excitement each young angler felt.
Introducing children to fishing early has benefits far beyond the water:
Encourages outdoor activity and healthy hobbies.
Builds focus and problem-solving skills.
Strengthens environmental awareness.
Keeps angling traditions alive for the future.
Events like this help ensure that UK carp fishing stays vibrant and sustainable for generations to come.
Our mission has always been to craft high-quality, handmade bait that catches fish — but also to share our passion for carp fishing with the wider community.
Whether it’s supplying anglers with premium boilies or inspiring the next generation at a fishing school, we believe in giving back to the sport we love.
