Catch Reports

Long distance hauler

Successful big carp angler Eddie Johnson from North Wales has been continuing his 550-mile round trips to the Essex Manor with yet more success. His latest reward came in the shape of this stunning mirror of 42lb 7oz known as ‘Big Lin’.

Eddie has had a string of success in recent years whilst using the B5 to target his big fish venues and needs a bait that he has 100% confidence in considering the amount of miles he clocks up. Well he’s certainly got that!!


Good quality food baits

I can't begin to stress the importance of using a high quality food bait when it comes to catching carp on a regular basis. A bait formulated with nutritional ingredients will be sending out food signals long after the liquid attractors have been dispersed, this due to the fact that the ingredients themselves will be breaking down and sending out messages of food into the surrounding water.

Cheaper baits that have little or no nutritional value might sound more attractive on the pocket, but they will cost you dearly when it comes to producing the goods. Once any liquid attractors have dispersed, the bait will not be sending out any food signals at all, but further to this, will have no nutritional benefit whatsoever.

Carp, like all other fish, soon learn to recognise a food source and will continue to eat it again and again if it provides them with a sense of nutritional satisfaction. They have the ability to detect a nutritional food source prior to consumption (food signals coming from the bait) and after ingestion. With this in mind, we have developed what we believe to be the highest quality range of nutritional food baits available, and the success of the B5 alone has certainly gone some way to proving this.
