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.
Backlead use

Back leads can be very advantageous in certain circumstances, particularly on venues that receive lots of pressure from anglers and you need to pin your line down to the lake bed. On such venues, any fish that bump into your lines, can often mean the kiss of death. To avoid this, it's best to pin your lines down. Yes, this can be acheived by using slack lines, but the big disadvantage there is that you will also lose vital bite indication. By dropping on a back lead, you can pin your lines down, yet still keep them semi-tight to register bites. They also minimise the chances of you catching your other lines whilst playing fish back to the bank.
The problem with most back leads however is that in the event of hooking a fish, they don't slide down the line very well, but we can assure you there's no chance of that happening with these!
