B5 now nails lake record common!
Posted in Catch Reports on 28th July 2008Having been responsible for catching the lake record mirror from a difficult southern gravel pit earlier this year, the incredible Shellfish B5 has now gone and nailed a new lake record common from the very same venue!
The big fish fell to long term Essential Bait user Mikey Edgeworth and pulled the scales around to 42lb 12oz. Mikey is no stranger to big fish having caught an enviable amount of ‘forty pounders’ in recent years, and this latest big fish emphasises that a combination of a good bait and good angling will always produce the goods.
Making your own
The amount of anglers making their own boilies these days are becoming less and less. This is understandable considering time limitations, but for those wishing to venture out into making their own boilies, these Handy Packs definitely are the way forward because everything you need (apart from eggs!) is inside the bucket.
Making your own bait allows you to use your own 'bespoke' combination of attractors to suit your individual needs. You can also make different shapes and sizes, as well as having the option over soft, medium or hard baits, depending on boiling times, or if you wish to include additional hardeners. Further to this, many anglers find it extremely rewarding to catch fish on a bait they have made themselves.
