Catch Reports
B5 or Black Snail? They're both running riot!!
Posted in Catch Reports on 14th May 2011We're having so many reports of of outstanding captures on the B5 and the Black Snail lately, it's impossible to say which one is coming out on top! The following two commons are a classic example and both reports arrived within 10-mins of each other!
Both commons are 35lb+ and the first (top left) fell to the rods of long time Essential Bait user Mark Jermey on the Shellfish B5, whilst Andy Windmill (bottom left) was busy putting the new Black Snail through its paces to bank this gorgeous 35lb 8oz common first time out on the bait!!
The B5 has long since been recognised as the best big fish bait ever produced (even admitted my many other bait companies) but the new Black Snail is definitely challenging its throne! One thing is certain, we now firmly believe we have the two best carp baits ever developed, so whichever one you choose, you can't go far wrong...
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.
