Catch Reports

Cracking common!

Posted in Catch Reports on 12th May 2011

Lee Carpenter is another angler who has been using the Black Snail to very good effect recently. Lee has caught several good fish on the 'black stuff' over the past few weeks topped by this cracking common of 38lb 4oz.

The reports on the new Black Snail are now coming in thick and fast and it seems like everyone who is using it are reaping the rewards of getting in on it early. There's no doubting the fact that the carp love this stuff and we predict that it will blitz quite a number of difficult big fish venues up and down the country in the coming months!


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.
