Like you, I only use corn and it's so convenient that I haven't really gotten interested in other baits. But there are a lot of baits. One that a lot of guys used when I fished for carp with a group was cereal. Something like Wheaties or Bran Flakes. They'd take a handful, immerse and squeeze out the extra water until it was the consistency they wanted. Some added flavor, such as powdered Jell-o.

Lots of folks use doughballs. You'll get loads of hits if you search for carp baits or doughball recipes or something along those lines.

immerse shredded wheat in water, squeeze it. the mix in some peanut butter. Its works, but its messy..... imo, stay with corn lol

Wouldn't work for me because I'd eat it myself!!  ;D

  We always used to use dough balls on trebel hooks or worms.

I'll have to try the corn again as I haven't had much luck with it.

Wheatie Balls.

Or wheat bread doughballs.

Or soft craws.

Or quality prepared doughs.

Like strawberry Van-A-Do.

I use bread but i have always heard a compound bow works good  ;D
