Has anyone else heard that Barlotto beans are good for carp bait. its the only reason my other half will grow them. I am sure I`ve heard it somewhere.

I think it may have been borlotti beans, as this carp catching site mentions them.

I don't know if they are any good at catching carp, as I'm not a freshwater angler.
I should imagine they'll need to be cooked before using though, unless you've got a steady hand and a small drill.  ;D

All sorts of large seeds are good for carp. Cook them well first.
