Darren's delight
Posted in Catch Reports on 13th August 2011Long time Essential Bait user Darren Greaves from Glos has had a break from carp fshing in recent years, but like most of us have experienced at one time or another, the urge to get back out on the bank eventually catches up with you!
Darren decided to try out the Black Snail on Christchurch at Linch Hill and soon found out just how effective the bait is when on his very first night he was rewarded with this magnificent 36lb 14oz mirror. Not a bad return!! Darren has since contacted us to say that he's been back and nailed another thirty! Just goes to show how a good quality bait can give you a massive edge on some of these pressured venues. Well done mate and keep up the good work...
Advantages of Liquid Foods
Long time carper Dave Gawthorn proudly displays a stunning 40lb+ mirror. Dave often uses Essential's Liquid Foods to his advantage.
Liquid food additives are undoubtedly an important part of the carp angers bait armoury. Their main function is to boost food signals in and around your baited rig or your baited area. Stick Mixes or groundbaits can simply be mixed together with water, but by adding a liquid food as well, you will be increasing the food signals coming from the bait, which in turn is far more likely to lead to a quicker rate of investigation and more frenzied fish activity.
Coating pellets with a Liquid Food will disperse quicker/better messages of food than pellets used on their own, and a single Pop-Up launched in the middle of nowhere will undoubtedly benefit from boosting the attraction properties with a Liquid Food. They can be particularly beneficial for short session use when you need to maximise attraction in the minimum amount of time. They are also beneficial for coldwater use when we need to send extra messages of food through the water column in an attempt to arouse those otherwise lethargic carp. Ignore them at your peril!
