Using the optimum PROTEIN ingredients levels: Carp diet essential requirements, for designing your top carp bait using the NEW ‘Biological Nutritional Value’ measurement! (BNV). The ‘fixed dietary protein percentage’: The dietary protein a carp essentially needs, can be tested using a mixture of high quality casein and gelatin, supplemented with crystalline amino acids. This is fed to the carp in graded levels, and over time, the carp are measured for optimum growth per graded protein level. All this can be shown on a graph with ‘Growth Response’ (vertical line), and ‘Dietary Protein Level’ (horizontal line). There will be a ‘Maximum Growth Response’ at the point where the ‘Optimum Dietary Protein Level’ is reached. In carp nutrition tests, it’s called the ‘Break Point’ and allows for the ‘FDPP’ to be calculated; as a percentage of the carp’s essential diet. This is the figure that is used to design specific proprietary, carp and koi dietary feeds. N.B. Please notice, in the tests, food fat content was ALWAYS supplemented when not present in sufficient levels in the protein and carbohydrate sources. These provide essential fatty acid groups, needed especially for cell wall structure and maximal protein synthesis, among other uses. Fat levels never read over 5 % to 10 % and averaging 2.5 to 5 % of the total dry feed. There are health consequences for fish as a result of excess fat in bait, for example Vitamin E deficiency. The Protein / Carbohydrate / Fat Ratio is extremely important in producing the healthiest carp, resulting in optimum protein digestion/assimilation and converting to the fastest growth and weight gains. More energy is released in digestion when the protein, carbohydrate and fat levels are in optimum levels. This balance has proven to catch more big fish in the long-term. Anglers have found they caught as many carp on baits of only mid-low protein ie, 40 % to 60 % protein, as a bait of very high, protein 85 % for example. However, much below 30% protein and the catch rates started to drop. Remembering that a low protein, carbohydrate bait may only contain : 6 % - 14 % protein, (as in the case of a semolina based bait for example.) This is not enough to sustain a carp healthily without supplementation with other nutrients and natural foods sources.. By providing carp with the optimum ratios of nutrients at the LEAST DIGESTIVE ENERGY COST gives more energy to the carp to EAT MORE FOOD, therefore giving you more opportunity for more takes! Arnold Schwarzenegger built his body using this principle, and he regularly consumed the highest quality proteins, (e.g.whey and caseins,) available to body builders in the world, while consuming high levels of carbohydrates, for extra energy, to win his ‘Mr Universe Titles’! A very successful angler, Julian Cundiff, achieved extremely outstanding consistent results for years, using a bird food bait incorporating the famously effective additive ‘Robin Red’. It was used basically unchanged for years, and was designed using ‘balanced food / amino acid profile’ bait principles based on proven carp dietary requirements. By Tim Richardson N.D.C.H.
