More big carp for Richard

Posted in Catch Reports on 31st May 2014

One man you can't keep out of the limelight when it comes to catching big carp on a regular basis is Richard Kelly. Rich has been at it again recently and once again, he has been using our awesome Shellfish B5 boilies to very good effect by landing a couple of cracking fish. The first being a fantastic common weighing 35lbs and the second being a stunning 44lb 8oz mirror!

Meanwhile, his fishing partner Andy Waller has been catching a few good fish on the same bait from the same venue, including a couple of mid thirties. Report to follow in due course. They certainly seem to love the B5 on there, but show us a carp that doesn't!!




Advantages of Liquid Foods

Long time carper Dave Gawthorn proudly displays a stunning 40lb+ mirror. Dave often uses Essential's Liquid Foods to his advantage. 

Liquid food additives are undoubtedly an important part of the carp angers bait armoury. Their main function is to boost food signals in and around your baited rig or your baited area. Stick Mixes or groundbaits can simply be mixed together with water, but by adding a liquid food as well, you will be increasing the food signals coming from the bait, which in turn is far more likely to lead to a quicker rate of investigation and more frenzied fish activity.

Coating pellets with a Liquid Food will disperse quicker/better messages of food than pellets used on their own, and a single Pop-Up launched in the middle of nowhere will undoubtedly benefit from boosting the attraction properties with a Liquid Food. They can be particularly beneficial for short session use when you need to maximise attraction in the minimum amount of time. They are also beneficial for coldwater use when we need to send extra messages of food through the water column in an attempt to arouse those otherwise lethargic carp. Ignore them at your peril!
