Catch Reports

Honesty is the best policy!

Posted in Catch Reports on 26th October 2012

Unlike some bait companies we could mention (cough!) Essential Baits have never had any interest in 'claiming' captures of fish that have been caught on baits other than our own!! As proved here with Essential Bait user Martin Finan holding this prehistoric looking mirror known as 'The Brute', at a weight of 52lb 4oz, which tripped up over a bed of maggots!!

Martin has been targetting the Berkshire gravel pit for the past few years but now his campaign has finally ended, we can reveal (although this won't come as a surprise to many!) that nearly all of Martin's previous fish from the venue have fallen to our B5 or Black Snail freezer boilies, even to the extent of 'doubling up' and in some cases 'trebling up' on captures! Which have included this lovely 37lb linear (pictured below). Further proof (if needed!) that when it comes to high quality food baits, Essential Baits still rule the roost!

Well done Martin, congratulations on a top Snail, Maggot and B5 bombing campaign!
 


The wonders of Thaumatin

Thaumatin is undoubtedly one of the most attractive ingredients we have ever seen when it comes to producing a stimulatory response. It can be used in particles, boilies, boilie glugs, liquid foods, stick, spod and spomb mixes etc, etc. Even match anglers have used it in their maggots and groundbait formulations and romped past their nearest competitors, simply because the fish seem to go into a complete feeding frenzy when this stuff is added to food!

We Would NEVER advocate the use of particles without Thaumatin and we promise that you will see a massive difference compared to particles without it. With so many shelf life particles available on shop shelves, and doubts about the aded preservatives making them taste 'bitter', Thaumatin is the perfect answer. Just a few mils per jar can make the world of difference and significantly improve your catch rate.

Beware of immitations! Essential Baits are the ONLY company that market Thaumatin-B.
