Jamie on a proper roll!

Posted in Catch Reports on 31st May 2014

Jamie Robb is currently on a tremendous run of big fish. He recently contacted us to order some Black Snail boilies and some White Snail pop-ups (awesome combination) to fish over the top. It was for a match he was fishing with his partner. Well they not only won the match by some distance, but in the process Jamie landed this superb 45lb 8oz common! (Left)

The following week Jamie went to Linch hill's Stoneacre venue and managed to bank a brace of thirties, topped by this magnificent 34lb 7oz fully scaled mirror (below). Once again, White Snail pop-ups over Black Snail boilies doing the damage.

But as if all that wasn't enough, Jamie has since returned to Stoney and banked a stunning 40lb 6oz monster known as Baby Choco! Pictures and report to follow. Well done Jamie, that's a proper roll you're on. keep 'em coming...

Good quality food baits

Ben Thompson with a stunning 47lb 5oz pb mirror caught on B5 freezer boilies when the fish seemed totally pre-occupied with naturals!

I can't begin to stress the importance of using a high quality food bait when it comes to catching carp on a regular basis. A bait formulated with nutritional ingredients will be sending out food signals long after the liquid attractors have been dispersed, this due to the fact that the ingredients themselves will be breaking down and sending out messages of food into the surrounding water.

Cheaper baits that have little or no nutritional value might sound more attractive on the pocket, but they will cost you dearly when it comes to producing the goods. Once any liquid attractors have dispersed, the bait will not be sending out any food signals at all, but further to this, will have no nutritional benefit whatsoever.

Carp, like all other fish, soon learn to recognise a food source and will continue to eat it again and again if it provides them with a sense of nutritional satisfaction. They have the ability to detect a nutritional food source prior to consumption (food signals coming from the bait) and after ingestion. With this in mind, we have developed what we believe to be the highest quality range of nutritional food baits available, and the success of the B5 alone has certainly gone some way to proving this.
