Matt's at it again!!
Posted in Catch Reports on 17th November 2011Matt Davies has to be a contender for the UK's carp angler of the year award after what he has caught this year! Having already banked a 46lb+ mirror and two different 46lb+ commons (and lots of 30lb+ fish!) Matt's latest conquest is a rare jewel in the crown in the shape of this stunning 39lb 10oz specimen known as the Black Mirror. Matt also caught a lovely 29lb 15oz mirror the same night! Once again, the ever consistent B5 doing the business for Matt.
Footnote: Just as we compile this catch report, Matt has been back in touch to say he's banked two more thirties!! Both commons at 30lb 9oz and 32lb 6oz respectively and as you would expect, both falling victim to the B5!!
Fantastic stuff Matt - top B5 bombing and awesome angling...
Liquid Flavours
A cracking forty-plus caught from a pressured venue on the B5 with Shellfish Plum flavour. Bait choice was a key factor to a very succesful campaign on this venue.
Liquid flavours play an important roll within the creation of a successful long term bait recipe for a number of reasons. They will not only help to give the finished bait it’s own unique taste profile, but also give it a distinctive ‘label’ that the carp will come to recognise through association. In other words, you will be educating them to eat the bait and recognise the 'taste' and 'smell' over a period of time.
Be careful not to get flavours confused with attractors though, because in terms of nutritional value, unlike liquid foods, they have little or no food value, however, for the reasons outlined above, they are a very important addition to any successful recipe.
