Hinders Whole Maize – Classic, Sweet & Cost-Effective Feed Hinders Whole Maize is a timeless particle favourite that’s both effective and great value for money. One of the first big-seed baits to make its mark in carp fishing, maize has stood the test of time thanks to its firm texture, natural sweetness, and long-lasting pulling power. It’s an excellent loose feed option that keeps fish grubbing around without breaking the bank.
Key Features • Naturally sweet and highly attractive to carp • Firm texture – ideal for pre-baiting, loose feed, or hookbaits • Perfect for use with other particles such as Hemp or Monster Munga • A cost-effective, high-performance classic bait • Great for rivers, lakes, and big baiting campaigns
More About This Product Whole Maize has been a staple in carp angling for decades. Its bright colour, sweet taste, and crunchy texture make it irresistible to fish and perfect for building feeding confidence. Maize stays firm once prepared, meaning it can handle nuisance species and hold up well during long sessions. When mixed with smaller seeds or particles, it creates a varied feed that keeps carp returning for more.
Preparation Guide • Soak for 24 hours in water • Boil or simmer for 30–45 minutes until soft but still firm • Leave to cool in the natural juices to retain sweetness and flavour
Top Tip Add 5ml of Betalin per dry kilo of maize. Leave for 2 hours to allow the liquid to absorb, then soak and cook as normal. The added Betalin boosts the sweetness and attraction, creating a flavour-packed feed fish can’t resist.
Hookbait Tip Pick out the best, most uniform kernels after cooking and place them in a small tub. Add a splash of Betalin and leave to soak — perfect for creating boosted hook-baits that stand out over your feed.

Top Tip - Try Salted Maize Salted maize can give you that extra edge especially in the spring when carp are getting ready to spawn
I tried using Nut 365 Shelf Life boilies for the first time on one of my club waters. Conditions were far from ideal with bright sunshine and high pressure but I was pleased to catch a 21lb12oz mirror carp. I have since caught another four carp using the bait including a second 20lb specimen. All fish caught were during daytime sessions.
