Creamseed kicks in as temperatures drop...
Posted in Catch Reports on 17th November 2011Everyone knows the awesome pulling power of our Creamseed boilies as water temperatures begin to drop and Ian May recently proved this when on his very first session using the cold water classic, he banked this immaculate 39lb common from a Glos gravel pit.
As if that wasn't enough, the next time Ian used the Creamseed (he's 2nd session using it) he banked commons of 29lb 12oz and a 25lb 2oz whilst the B5 came up trumps on another rod with a 32lb 12oz specimen.
Welcome to using Essential Baits Ian......lol.
The use of Food Oils
Richard Kelly is certainly no stranger to big carp, but that's because he understands the importance of a well balanced nutritional food bait. It's paid dividends for him on numerous occasions, as proved again here with another UK forty.
We firmly believe that a well balanced nutritional food bait will completely out fish baits with little or no real food value, and the inclusion of a food oil will help to provide the essential fatty acids required for the carp’s dietary requirements. Further to this, the inclusion of a lipid source will also have a sparing effect on the proteins used within the bait, thus allowing the carp to assimilate the available proteins far more efficiently. In short, food oils will increase nutritional values and provide an extra source of attraction to the finished bait. In short, the fish love them, they increase nutritional values and to cap it all off, they make the bait easier to roll!
Top tip
If making your own baits, reduce the oil content by 50% during the colder months and add a nutritional emulsifier.
