Three Wise Men!
Posted in Catch Reports on 07th May 2012Ben Pester, Jason Crossley and Sean McMahon recently fished a session to remember at the Blue Pool in Burghfield for a week's session. Ben and Jason have had plenty of success using our legendary B5 boilies from a variety of different waters and wisely chose the B5 again for their most recent assault - and the word "assault" was exactly what it turned out to be!!
They absolutely 'blitzed' the venue with an incredible 50-fish haul! This included lots of upper twenties and six thirties to 35lb 8oz - by far and away the most successful spell of angling on the lake for quite some time, but what about this for an achievement - Shaun managed to break his personal best no less than 11 times during the session!!!
Once again the B5 has proved to be the bait that out-fishes everything else and justifies its unbelievable track record - well done lads, awesome hauling...
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!
