Catch Reports
And yet another huge UK common!
Posted in Catch Reports on 08th November 2011What is it about the amount of huge commons that the B5 and Black Snail seem to attract? Matt Davies has recently banked commons of 46lb and 46lb 6oz on the B5 and now, long term Essential Bait user Charlie Goult has gone and banked this massive 46lb 4oz monster on the Black Snail!! Further proof that 'big elusive carp' can't resist a high quality food bait.
Charlie has had a break from fishing for the past 11-months but soon made up for lost time when he caught the mahoosive pb common from a Nene Valley pit during a session to celebrate his 28th birthday. Happy birthday mate!!!
Making your own
The amount of anglers making their own boilies these days are becoming less and less. This is understandable considering time limitations, but for those wishing to venture out into making their own boilies, these Handy Packs definitely are the way forward because everything you need (apart from eggs!) is inside the bucket.
Making your own bait allows you to use your own 'bespoke' combination of attractors to suit your individual needs. You can also make different shapes and sizes, as well as having the option over soft, medium or hard baits, depending on boiling times, or if you wish to include additional hardeners. Further to this, many anglers find it extremely rewarding to catch fish on a bait they have made themselves.
