Catch Reports
Jamie still Robbing 'em!
Posted in Catch Reports on 28th October 2013Jamie Robb has once again been getting amongst those elusive Stoneacre carp. He has recently caught a couple of good commons including this gorgeous thirty-plus specimen, which fell to the Black B5
Those clear water carp certainly like the darker baits and the Black B5 and Black Snail have both proved very successsful and tripping up those elusive warriers.
Well done Jamie.
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.
