Kingsmead 'Whacker' for Dave
Posted in Catch Reports on 05th July 2012Long time Essential Bait user David Acreman from Taunton has used our Shellfish B5 frozen boilies for many years and judging by the amount of big fish he's caught, you can see why so many anglers consider it to be the most consistent big fish bait ever developed.
Dave's latest target water is the Cemex Kingsmead venue and his limited time availabilty coupled with long distance travelling mean't that he needed to use a bait that he could rely on 100% to optimise his chances from the very off. The B5 is tailor made for this scenario and to further prove this, here is Dave with a couple of recent 'whackers' at 38lb 8oz (below) and a fish known as 'Starry's' at 42lb 1oz (main image) Well done Dave - very well deserved.
The journey continues
Mike Willmott wrote his first book, Carp Life, way back in 2002 and it received high praise from all quarters with many angler's proclaiming it to be the finest carp book ever written. The demand was enormous and just two years later, all copies had completely sold out. Due to demand, the book was finally re-printed in 2006, but now, more than a decade later and after five years of putting it all together, the long-awaited follow up to this extraordinary publication has arrived!
This 464-page publication is far bigger again than Carp Life 1, and includes hundreds of different images, line drawings and sketches that have never been published before. Mike very rarely writes in the magazines these days, but all of this unseen material has now come to fore in this new eagerly awaited book that is about to take the carp world by storm.
