Wow! What a fish. 47lb of classic carp.
Fishing with a scattering of Atlantic Heat 15mms has proven to be
a deadly tactic up at the 120 acre venue for Phil. 19 fish have
already graced Phil's net but this one was near the top of his list!
The big mirror picked up the bait on his second night and then proceeded
to tow our poor Phil half way around the lake! After steady pressure the
big male conceded to Phil's way of thinking and slipped into his waiting
net.
A big congrats to Phil for a truly massive result.
Needless to say Phil returned from Wraysbury No.1 a very, very happy
man.
He even brought some beer at a local barbecue, all £4.70 worth!!!
Some things never change.

Davidson
Fishing at Old Bury Hill's Temple Lake with the trusted Atlantic
Heat, Colin slipped the net under this upper twenty on his over night
stay for the Anglers Mail cameras.
Four fish were landed in total making Colin a very happy man.
Good angling Colin, great to have you on board. |

 Wraysbury
no.1
Our very own 80's soft porn Looky-Likey Phil Bunyan has been out
and about up at the massive Wraysbury.
Phil caught up with a friend last week in the shape of the floppy tailed
common at 33lb. This very old fish was caught by Phil last year at the
same weight and the same bait! Testament to the fact that even the
Wraysbury carp are being caught repeatedly on our gear.
Top angling mate.
Atlantic Heat 18mms once again. |

  Brace
yourself Rodney.
Wow! Over 70lb of carp in 20 minutes!
Rob Morris recently switched over to Baitworks Atlantic Heat after years
of fishing on one of the more commercial companies baits. This
latest capture was Robs biggest brace and we are sure the lakes biggest
brace also!!
35.04 and 36.10 of stunning common carp. Rob fished an overnight session
on Carp Society's lake 61 and introduced a total of 3.5 kg of 18mm
Atlantic Heat's at 50 yards range.
Fantastic result Rob. |

 Snap!
Bill Bloomer equalled the lake record over at the Carp Society's lake 61
in the shape of this stonking 38.08 common.
The bait? need we say!!! Atlantic Heat 18mms! We think it's the same
fish Nathan Fox caught just a week ago (same bait) at the same weight,
testament to the awesome pulling power of the A.Heat.
Top result Bill.
This man has an incredible record for the bigger fish at this venue. |

 Margin
Monster.
Steve Pullee recently sent us these shots of a recent session up in
Oxford.
Baiting a margin slope one morning proved to be the downfall of three
fish that day, 19, 29, 45!! The 45lb'er is the recognised biggest fish
at the venue and was depositing huge amounts of Atlantic Heat over the
mat. All fish fell to Atlantic Heat 15mms.
Top angling Steve. |

 Pellet
Power
Mr Fox has been the first to get his hands on the new Baitworks
pellet range last week. Fishing over at lake 61 (carp society), Nathan
used a small Atlantic Heat boilie in amongst a bag full of our new soon
to be released pellets.
Casting at a range of 55 yards, Nathan racked up this impressive
tally of carp on a 8 hour day session......26, 28, 28.08, 30, 33.08,
38.08 (lake record!!).
Top angling! Another 5kg of pellets then!

 Prince
for a day!
Giles Harris! 41.08!!!!
Words fail me.....
What a privilege it was to witness one of the Jewels on the bank.
The Lord Lucan of the carp world only puts in a appearance 1-2 times
per year and our very own Prince was the well deserved captor. Fishing
the Atlantic Heat 18mms at 50 yards into silt was the tactic. Even
though it was tipping down we still managed to capture the moment
through the lens with this cracking shot.
Top result from a very tricky South West water.
Well done Giles, now we all want to be having a Harris.

Justin Badman sent us a pic of this 28lb+ fully scaled beauty
from Horseshoe lake, Lechlade. Justin made the trip up from Bristol for
a short over night session in-between Uni.
Four fish were landed in total all falling to the Atlantic Heat fished
at short range.
Nice one mate! |

 South
West 36.
Simon Gough has recently switched to the Baitworks stable and
has definitely hit they ground running! Fishing on a South West
syndicate, Simon introduced 3kg of the trusted Atlantic Heat 18mms on
his 3 day stay. With less than perfect conditions, Simon landed four
fish in total 19lb, 28lb, 29lb, and 36lb+!!
Many of the fish at this venue last year have already fallen to
the Baitworks boilie range and this year looks to be no different.
Great result Simon. |

 Micro
marches on.............
Paul Allen! Every time I wake up in the morning there seems to be a text
message waiting for me with Paul's latest capture! I was up early for
this one so I nipped down the road to photo and film a short clip of the
mega old fish. 31lb and ounces was the weight (not that it matters) and
again fell to
our new flavour combo that Paul is testing. Paul even managed a
smile with his new teeth that had just been fixed after years of abuse!
Top result fella....Where next? Fish watch out.

Horseshoe result
Gary King wasted no time at all getting amongst the better fish over at
Horseshoe lake, Lechlade.
Once again Atlantic Heat 18mms fished in large quantities at 50 yards
accounted for 5 fish. This 34+ pictured was the biggest.
Top angling Gary, very cold easterlies were blowing at the time, so
a great result in testing conditions. |

 Prince
Giles.
Our very own South Cerney Prince came up trumps this week with a
well deserved 29.07 near leather carp. The Industrial sales tycoon
had taken advantage of loop hole in his work contract to spend some
time on a very pressured South West venue.
Giles introduced the Atlantic Heat at short range to record his first
one from the water this year.
Top shooting mate, sure more will follow.

 Monster
Red
We had this e-mail from young Sparsholt student Martyn Rosier (17 years
old).
He has been using the Monster Red at his South West syndicate lake this
season. The 36.12 pictured was one of many to fall to the Red over the
last few sessions.
Our new 18mm sizes fished at a range of 40 yards to silt producing the
goods.
Well done Martyn. |

for Micro
Paul Allen has been having a purple patch as of late.
Testing a new flavour combination for us, Paul has been catching
everywhere! This 29lb chunk one of his latest victims.
Baits at 10-40 yards picking up the fish.
Nice one Paul |

 One
Night Wonder!
Mike Holly is no stranger to these pages at Baitworks. The Bristol rod
only fishes one night per week (and thats only if he has done
the shopping, taken the rubbish out etc) but always comes up trumps.
This fish, just shy of 30, his latest victim. Mike used the every
faithful Atlantic Heat 15mms, as Mike would say..... 'when you have only
one night you need a bait that you are 100% confident in'
Spot on Mike. |

 Hauling!
Young Jake Taylor continues to show the older carpers how its done
on one of the lakes on the Linear complex, Oxford! Jake fished 48hrs
over the busy weekend to slip his net under no less than 13 fish on
Manor lake. 18mm Atlantic Heat on-mass at 50 yards range was the method
preferred by our young gun.
This 25.12 linear was the highlight of the fish for Jake.
Top angling mate as always.... |

 Heat
Domination
Paul Allen aka Micro continues his remarkable Spring onslaught.
As we have mentioned before, Paul is testing a new flavour combination
combined with the proven Atlantic Heat base mix. This 36lb linear (Big
Lin) has now been caught 4 times in the last 6 months to this incredible
bait. Our very own pocket rocket has accounted for more than 35 fish
this Spring, from a very pressured club water.

Farmer Chris slipped his net under this huge framed 39+ mirror on a wet
and windy night. The ever faithful Atlantic Heat 18mms proved to much
for the big one to ignore at his South West venue. The fish sets a new
PB for Chris who was ecstatic on the phone to me and even more happy
when I left my tea on the table and went out to photo it!!
Top result Chris, congrats.

   Horseshoe
lake
Our very own Justin Badman has been taking time out from his
hectic lifestyle on the University campus! Fishing at the Carp Society's
Horseshoe Lake, Justin notched up a impressive haul of 21 fish including
12 twenty's during his six day stay! Applying large amounts of
Monster Red 18mms and moving onto showing fish the winning formula.
These three mid-twenty's were the pick of the bunch.
Absolutely gorgeous fish mate.
Top man. |

  Micro
the Magician
Paul Allen (aka Micro) has been getting amongst them in his usual way.
Paul was testing a prototype Flavour combo for us and his results have
been awesome.
The first string of fish to fall were these two crackers. 35.12
common and 31+ mirror.
Paul slipped the net under no less than 9 other carp that session where
others around him struggled!
Top Dangling mate, I'd better mix up some more flavours! |

Red Dawn
 Well,
what can I say about this fish? Simply stunning. This character was one
of the reasons I joined this particular syndicate some two years ago.
The fish affectionately known as Big Red is as old as the hills and
blind in both eyes!
Using a prototype bait (test batch 12) for the first time at this
venue, accounted for the 30.04 of OAP carp! This one doesn't make to
many appearances on the bank so I was over the moon to finally make
her acquaintance.
Although the fish was caught on the prototype mix it was excreting huge
amounts of Atlantic Heat on my unhooking mat! Giles (Prince Giles) was
fishing some 100 yards away with the Atlantic Heat that
night!!
Hmmm, Blind fish, doesn't say much for his rigs!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry mate, couldn't resist that one. |

 Once,
twice, Three times a lady.
The Big Lin has been out again to the Atlantic Heat! It seems this fish
- as well as many others - just can't resist the pull of this phenomenal
bait. This is the Lin's 3rd capture in under 6 months!
Simon introduced 3kg of A.Heat 20mms during his two night stay to tempt
one of the lakes jewels.
Well done Simon |

Strange goings on.
 Those
of you fishing the Cotswold Water park will be aware of the new and
exciting sightings of Obi-Wan Kanobi near and around the Ashton Keynes
venues. Information is very thin on the ground but according to our
sources, sightings seem to be around Fri-Sunday of most weeks. Anglers
were agasp last week as Obi preformed a death defying balancing show on
a narrow part of a flooded bank. In a frenzied Boilie fight, the ageing
super star defied gravity by tip toeing on the bank-side edge, dodging
20mm boilies and almost ended up in the drink! Luckily Obi managed to
regain balance and more importantly keep his wallet from getting wet (or
open, very rare). The same legendary figure did put the force to good
use and landed a 26lb mirror last weekend, first fish out for 3 months.
The bait? Atlantic Heat of course.
May the force be with you. |

News just in of another victim to the mighty Atlantic Heat.
This 40.04 mirror was captured by Darren Redford over at Sandhurst,
Yateley. Darren purchased the bait with a trip to France in mind but
couldn't resist taking The Heat to the Yateley lake. We are glad he did,
great result fella!
20mm Atlantic Heat fished with a scattering of freebies produced the
whacker.
To our knowledge this was the first time the Atlantic Heat has
been introduced at the venue. |

 Monster
Result!
What a cracker! 39.08 of awesome carp!
Details a little thin on this one, had a e-mail off Brad this
week regarding a capture of this superb 39.08 venue record. Monster
Red 20mms again turning the fish over. Brad had been trickling bait in
for a week or so before angled for a overnight session on this
particular South West syndicate, he was rewarded late in the evening
with this fish. I Love it when a plan comes together.
Well done Brad, Jaw dropping! |

 Common
Occurrence.
Mike Holly from Bristol has been enjoying a bumper season on
the Baitworks products. Mike only fishes quick overnighters in
between work every other week or so. Fishing an Oxford water, Mike
introduced 50 Monster Red 15mm Boilies to a small silt patch at 30
yards. At 1am Mike hooked into this perfect 33lb common in very cold
conditions.
A Monster Red hookbait soaked in the dip for 48hours prior did the trick
for the likable Bristol rod.

 Ben
Tipney has been
having a superb season on the Atlantic Heat. Fishing between two waters
Ben has caught from both rock hard venues (he's currently top rod on one
we can't mention!) to Manor Farm at the linear complex in Oxford. This
winter Ben has been over at Manor and so far hasn't blanked this
winter!!
Ever faithful Atlantic Heat 15mms once again scoring up in that neck of
the woods.
Here's a 26lb+ that came during a hectic 36 hour session where 16
fish were landed!
Top angling for January.

I have received photos on and off all year from this young chap!
Jake Taylor travelled up to the linear complex for a couple of nights
angling. Fishing on Manor lake, Jake set about introducing 2kg of
Atlantic Heat 15mms to a feature at long range.
These two 20's (21 and 27lb+) were the biggest landed from a string of
fish over the weekend by the ever consistent Young gun.
Well done Jake, top result as always.

 This
fish has been on Justin Badmans most wanted list for a while!!
Fishing on a Bristol Club lake the twenty something picked up where
he left off last week with another couple of fish, 25lb+ and this
superb 29.12 common (LAKE RECORD COMMON??) that has eluded most anglers
this season.
Justin spotted the fish roll down to his right and hastily moved
swims to plop a Monster Red hookbait in the area. 5 minutes later this
ones in the net.
Well spotted!! |

Had this pic sent through from an angler fishing over at Whelford Pools,
Fairford.
Not many details but the angler in question has enjoyed a bumper winter
on the popular day ticket venue. This 29lb+ the pic of the bunch (think
its the biggest one in the lake??),one of many to fall to the Atlantic
Heat 15mm's over the winter period.
Nice work. |

We are the
Champions!
 With
the bait rolling finished for the week, myself and Giles popped down to
play for the DHP Total Carp and Advanced Carp Fishing team in the Echo
charity cup! A welcome rest for bait making for the weekend.
With our trusted centre half Richard Stewart scoring two absolute belters
from all of 25 yards into 5-aside goals, we thought our luck would be
in? We went through to the final only to draw in regular time...... Cash
was on hand to score the winning penalty after I managed to get in the
way of 4 attempts from the other teams! (still got it!!!)
Great day out and for a great cause also.
Look out for echo page that will be up and running shortly....we should
all be members...More on that later.
Congrats Boyz..............

  Had
some cracking pic's sent through from Mr Jeffreys regarding the stonking
Barbel he has been catching all season, it seems every week he was
sending me a pic of a double!! These two weighed in at 12.15lb and
13.06lb!!
Monster Red and Atlantic Heat both doing the damage over the season.

Justice!
 Giles
Harris! After 12 months of what can only be described as rotten fishing
luck. Some local anglers now use Giles last name as a substitute word
for Blanking, lost one, nightmare etc. For example 'Any good mate?
Reply.......No, I've had a Harris!
Giles starts 2008 with a couple of good fish under his belt.
Giles managed to talk himself onto a Private Cotswold venue with bribes
and black mail for the back end of the season. Two sessions in with
the Monster Red, Giles is all smiles with these fish on a short
night session. Giles baited with 50 baits per rod at ranges of 30, 60
and 70 yards.
Nice one Giles, have a feeling this is going to be your year. |

 Great
Start
Jas from Devizes has just started to use the Baitworks gear and
he's already off to a flyer. Fishing short day sessions, Jas
introduced bits of paste steadily through the day. This 31.08 has the
highlight of a string of good carp taken from this venue. Atlantic Heat
again turning them over.
Well done Jas....More to come I'm sure.

 Baitworks
very own South West model has managed to pull himself away
from University life for a day. Justin enjoyed something fishy of a
different kind when he landed 5 fish up to 26lb (Pictured) including
2 other 20's. Monster Red 15mms again slaying them on his chosen club
water.
Nice one Mate. |

Jan Blitz.
With the epic floods rendering my main Venue all but under water, the
temptation to drop in on a fantastic little private water for a
overnighter was to much to resist. The lake in question has served
 me
well in the short sessions I have put in to date. In the cold and wet
conditions I managed to catch 3 fish that night! 12lb, 19lb and this
beautiful common just shy of 30lb. This is the 5th time this particular
fish has fell to Baitworks boilies in under 12 months!! Testament to the
catching ability of our range......the baits that never blow spring to
mind? All fish were caught on 15mm Monster Red pop ups with paste
wrapped around the lead. A total of 2kg was used on the night and in
hindsight I should have put more in!! I did nip back for the second
night and managed to land a couple more and lose one. The fish must have
really been up for it, Giles even managed to catch one!! - Sorry mate!!
Good stuff!! |

Kracke from sunny Bognor Regis sent us a pic of this 28lb mirror that

Great result for the Angler in question. The Bait???

Second time this season this fish has fell to the Heat and I'm sure
there will be many more on this incredible bait. |

 Tom Sedgbeer continues his fantastic season on the Baitworks gear.
Fishing an over night session Tom caught up with this clonking 36+

Nice one Tom. |
