Stoneacre stunners!
Posted in Catch Reports on 06th July 2013Essential Baits die hard Jamie Robb has been making the long trips south worthwhile as usual and his latest conquests came in the shape of a couple of Stoneacre stunners.
Jamie opted for the new black version of our famous B5 freezer boilies to tempt this lovely 38lb 10oz whacker (left). On another baited area Jamie decided to make use of our 'Thaumatin-B' particle booster to enhance his tiger nuts. The result? Another scaley Stoneacre stunner of 31lb 4oz.
Once again, Essential Baits gear producing the goods on a pressured low stocked venue.
Cork ball advantages
Although we provide cork dust pop-ups, we also appreciate that some customers prefer cork ball pop-ups and I think that it's generally accepted that cork ball pop-ups are the best method for long term buoyancy. This can be particularly advantageous for many modern day rigs such as chod rigs and Hinged Stiff-rigs. These clever little packs allow anglers to create their own cork ball pop-ups with little effort. You can also regulate the amount of paste you use to make them more buoyant or turn them into slow sinkers.
Top tip
If you are having problems with diving birds or nuisance fish, you can combat this by 'meshing up'. The best method we have seen to do this is to cut a small section of tights (we recommend you get your missus's permission first!). Wrap the pop-up in the fine mesh, pull tight, tie off with floss, 'blob' the excess with a lighter and away you go.
