Stoneacre stunners!

Posted in Catch Reports on 06th July 2013

Essential Baits die hard Jamie Robb has been making the long trips south worthwhile as usual and his latest conquests came in the shape of a couple of Stoneacre stunners.

Jamie opted for the new black version of our famous B5 freezer boilies to tempt this lovely 38lb 10oz whacker (left). On another baited area Jamie decided to make use of our 'Thaumatin-B' particle booster to enhance his tiger nuts. The result? Another scaley Stoneacre stunner of 31lb 4oz.

Once again, Essential Baits gear producing the goods on a pressured low stocked venue.


Bag 'n' Stick Mixes

Team Essential member Wayne Lindsey with one of two 40lb+ commons caught within a week by increasing attraction levels in his baited area.

Since the publication of numerous articles on PVA stick mix presentations, the use of dedicated mixes to facilitate for this style of fishing have become very popular indeed. The main principle behind this type of presentation is being able to place your hook bait smack bang in the middle of a concentrated parcel of food.

In many ways, it's the perfect way to achieve absolute pin point bait presentation around your baited rig, and there are times when it can be an absolutely deadly method. This type of presentation can often lead to an extra bite or two when perhaps single hook baits or stringers fail to achieve the desired results. The extra attraction of tiny particles breaking down around your hook bait will send out a cloud of food that will not only provide a bigger visual target for the fish to see, but will also send out effective food signals into the surrounding water.
