Lakes First 40+ Common

Posted in Catch Reports on 04th August 2007

Long standing Essential Bait user Mikey Edgeworth from Stonehouse, Glos has banked plenty of big fish in his time, but we doubt that any have ranked any higher than this magnificent lake record 41lb 7oz common. Mikey caught the big fish from a large Glos gravel pit, along with another common of 30lb 6oz, and as you would expect, both fish fell to the awesome Shellfish B5.

Mikey held the previous lake record common of 37lb+ for a few years, until Dave Waker recently broke it with a common of 38.06. However, Mikey wasn’t going to be ‘out-gunned’ and within a week, he claimed it back again with this superb specimen.


Short term preserved boilies

Andy Clark successfully used our short term preserved boilies to tempt this awesome 67lb giant from Gigantica in France.

Many anglers love fresh/freezer boilies, whilst others prefer the convenience of shelf life boilies for those extended sessions or trips abroad. We therefore decided to develop a 'hybrid' between the two and our short term preserved boilies have been used with remarkable success across Europe. Their 30-day shelf life suits many anglers, and if you plan to have your bait delivered a few days before your trip, they will not only be fine for the duration of your stay, but any that are brought back can be put in the freezer and treated as freezer bait thereafter.

These boilies are also ideal for customers ordering bait from outside the UK, because the baits will withstand the shipping duration and can be placed in your freezer ready to use as required. Due to a 'drying out' period they are generally slightly harder than standard freezer boilies.
