Jamie still Robbing 'em!
Posted in Catch Reports on 28th October 2013Jamie Robb has once again been getting amongst those elusive Stoneacre carp. He has recently caught a couple of good commons including this gorgeous thirty-plus specimen, which fell to the Black B5
Those clear water carp certainly like the darker baits and the Black B5 and Black Snail have both proved very successsful and tripping up those elusive warriers.
Well done Jamie.
Bag 'n' Stick Mixes
Team Essential member Wayne Lindsey with one of two 40lb+ commons caught within a week by increasing attraction levels in his baited area.
Since the publication of numerous articles on PVA stick mix presentations, the use of dedicated mixes to facilitate for this style of fishing have become very popular indeed. The main principle behind this type of presentation is being able to place your hook bait smack bang in the middle of a concentrated parcel of food.
In many ways, it's the perfect way to achieve absolute pin point bait presentation around your baited rig, and there are times when it can be an absolutely deadly method. This type of presentation can often lead to an extra bite or two when perhaps single hook baits or stringers fail to achieve the desired results. The extra attraction of tiny particles breaking down around your hook bait will send out a cloud of food that will not only provide a bigger visual target for the fish to see, but will also send out effective food signals into the surrounding water.
