Catch Reports

Back in the thick of it

Posted in Catch Reports on 09th May 2010

Essential Bait boss Mike Willmott managed to get the rods out for the first time in six months and what a session it was! Returning to his beloved Frampton for the last few days of the season he managed to bank five carp from two different swims, this included a 29lb 4oz common followed by mirrors of 20.04, 26.02, 33.06 and 34.08.

Once again the successful bait was the ever consistent Shellfish B5 and all the fish were caught at close range amongst patchy weed as the fish followed a new wind to feed on the abundant fly hatches. Yet further proof that the B5 will compete side by side with their natural food.


The wonders of Thaumatin

Thaumatin is undoubtedly one of the most attractive ingredients we have ever seen when it comes to producing a stimulatory response. It can be used in particles, boilies, boilie glugs, liquid foods, stick, spod and spomb mixes etc, etc. Even match anglers have used it in their maggots and groundbait formulations and romped past their nearest competitors, simply because the fish seem to go into a complete feeding frenzy when this stuff is added to food!

We Would NEVER advocate the use of particles without Thaumatin and we promise that you will see a massive difference compared to particles without it. With so many shelf life particles available on shop shelves, and doubts about the aded preservatives making them taste 'bitter', Thaumatin is the perfect answer. Just a few mils per jar can make the world of difference and significantly improve your catch rate.

Beware of immitations! Essential Baits are the ONLY company that market Thaumatin-B.
