A switch to B5 produces two Monster Commons!
Posted in Catch Reports on 25th March 2009We need to keep the details of this one a bit hush hush due to publicity restrictions and water protection but David Bishop has recently had an unbelievable result by banking two different 40+ commons!
The bigger of the two commons weighed in at 45lb and was a fish that Dave had been chasing for the past 4-years to no avail. He therefore decided to switch over to our Shellfish B5 in the hope that a high quality food bait would change his fortunes and it certainly did! In no time at all the elusive big common was sulking in the bottom of his net – job done!
Dave is in no doubt that the B5 played a big role in the downfall of the monster common and decided to use the same bait on a different venue to track down yet another big common. After a period of bait introduction the result was never really in doubt, but unbelievably, Dave managed to nail the big common on his very first night!! It went 42lb 8oz and capped a memorable period in his angling career.
Well angled that man. Top B5 common bombing! Further proof (as if needed!) that the B5 is streets ahead of any other bait on the market in terms of both its attractor package and its nutritional value.
Mike on Bag 'n' Stick Liquids
The main function of liquids is to boost food signals in and around your baited rig and increase the chances of fish being pulled into the area. Stick Mixes, Method Mixes and Ground bait 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. On many occasions I’ve witnessed carp being pulled down from the upper layers on to the baited spot, and I have no doubt that this has been due to the liquids sending out attractive food messages through the water column.
Of course these liquids can be used for a number of other useful applications as well. For example, coating pellets with these liquids will disperse quicker/better messages of food than pellets used on their own, and a single Pop-Up launched out into the middle of nowhere will undoubtedly benefit from being soaked in a liquid for a few hours first.
I can honestly say that these Bag ‘n’ Stick Liquids have caught me a number of ‘bonus fish’ when I’ve been pretty much convinced that I would have struggled without using them. There will be a time and a place to use them, but ignore them at your peril!
