Catch Reports
Linch Hill Stunner!
Posted in Catch Reports on 05th June 2013Long time carper and team Essential member Shaun Jarvis recently visited Linch Hill in Oxfordshire to pit his wits against some of the lovely carp that reside on the complex and was handsomely rewarded with this lovely dark 'looker' of 35lb 2oz.
Once again, B5 freezer boilies doing the damage for Shaun and with fish like that swimming around we've got a feeling it won't be long before shaun is heading back there again - with a few bags of B5 of course!!! Nice one Shaun...
Advantages of Liquid Foods
Long time carper Dave Gawthorn proudly displays a stunning 40lb+ mirror. Dave often uses Essential's Liquid Foods to his advantage.
Liquid food additives are undoubtedly an important part of the carp angers bait armoury. Their main function is to boost food signals in and around your baited rig or your baited area. Stick Mixes or groundbaits can simply be mixed together with water, but by adding a liquid food as well, you will be increasing the food signals coming from the bait, which in turn is far more likely to lead to a quicker rate of investigation and more frenzied fish activity.
Coating pellets with a Liquid Food will disperse quicker/better messages of food than pellets used on their own, and a single Pop-Up launched in the middle of nowhere will undoubtedly benefit from boosting the attraction properties with a Liquid Food. They can be particularly beneficial for short session use when you need to maximise attraction in the minimum amount of time. They are also beneficial for coldwater use when we need to send extra messages of food through the water column in an attempt to arouse those otherwise lethargic carp. Ignore them at your peril!
