Rockin Robin!
Had a lovely pic sent through from Nick Bull of this cheeky fellow! It seems even the robins can't resist a good quality bait in the winter! We have heard of Robins taking food from off your feet but never out of the hand, power of the Atlantic Heat!!
Nick did put the bait to good use in the water by landing a 30+ on a chilly Dec morning.

Nice one Nick.

Dec 07 WORKING IT

Chris Currie sent in a e-mail regarding a superb capture of this 44.10 
southern still water carp.
Chris spent weeks walking round the 80 acre lake after work introducing
the Monster Red to a few likely areas. On only his second 4hr session 
Chris spotted some fish close in and baited with 2kg of Monster Red. 
He then returned the day after and flicked a couple of rods out over 
the marginal shelf on a short evening 2hr session, 30mins later the 
clutch is spinning and this cracking P.B. slides over the net!!
First time bait has been used at the venue!!

Top angling Chris, spot on.

 

Dec 07 Quickie 4 Me

Fishing a few single one night sessions on a tricky lake up here 
helped me catch up with this cold water 25.06. Monster Red 15mm Pop ups fished at short range in conjunction with paste triggered this one 
to feed in biting cold conditions.

Dec 07 Phil Bunyan continues his success on the ultra hard Wraysbury No.1.

This resent brace of baby Mary at 32lb+ and another clonking 38+ common! Phil's result was down to again good angler + good bait. Phil fished the Atlantic Heat at various depths to record his 16th fish 
from the venue ( top Rod ).
Great fish from a great water.

Top Man.

 

Dec 07 Quest Complete

Long Dan wasted no time in banking a winter 30lb common that was on
his wish list. Fishing nights in between work, Dan has landed a steady
flow of Carp on most sessions before the 30 picked up his Atlantic
Heat 20mm pop up.
Introducing 100 Atlantic Heat baits glugged in 75mm of Atlantic Heat
dip every other night helped Dan to land his fish.

Well done Dan..

Well what a night!



Yours Truly, with Phil & Nathan
before the onslaught!
 

Great to see lots of old and new faces out and about at Keynsham. Both my company's Baitworks and Born and Bred were there in force, so it was a chance to kick back and relax for the night. With Rob Maylin And Ian Chillcot in fine form on the microphone we all knew me would be in fine company for the night. Many thanks to all who attended and of course a special mention goes to Andy Leslie who the night was in aid of.
Thank you to Steve Hill and Colin Hunt for all the work and stress
they have both endured in bringing the night together.
Oh, yeah, nearly forgot....shame on the anglers who stitched Steve up
in the Curry house with a £200+ bill at the end of the meal!

PB for Justin Badman


 

35lb+ for Justin!! Making the effort for a single day session at
Horseshoe Lake paid dividends for Justin. Stalking just yards from
the bank, Justin watched as this cracker picked up his half 15mm
Monster Red boilie in just 4 feet of water. Nice one mate.

Lee Holdsworth - what a FISH!


 

Lee has been fishing one of the more headbanging waters
up here as of late. Regular baiting on a 120acre+ low stock pit has
resulted in one of its jewels. Masses of Monster Red applied over 4
weeks tuned up trumps for Lee.
well done pal.

Top result.

Nov 07
Out and about fishing!!

Funny thing with both these baits, every where they go they just seem to knock out the bigger fish! This 34.14 fish pictured is biggest carp at this venue and blow me, first night and first take I catch it!! The opportunity to fish as a guest on a southern venue was too tempting to pass up....I glad I made the journey.
34.12 and 24lb made me a happy camper on a overnighter ( for the Advance carp cameras as well!! ) . The 34 had not been out for 3 years until the Atlantic heat was introduced....the rest is now history.

What a great season this lad is having.

Countless 20's from Horseshoe all falling to a mixture of Atlantic Heat and Monster red 18mm Boilies fished one mass at ranges of under the tip - 90yards. These three cracking 30s came on a resent two day session!

Well done Justin.

 

Redmire

 

Long Dan spent a couple days on the hallow turf, result.....some cracking Redmire commons up to 24lb!! The very consistent Dan  fished Atlantic Heat 15mm pop ups on chod rigs over a light scattering of free bait.

Nice one Dan

 


 

Well what a fantastic 12 months for Baitworks.

I would like to thank everyone for the ongoing support and kind words that have been said and expressed via phone and e-mails. With the new premises up on the Cotswold Water Park, Baitworks looks to expand even more over the next 6 months. We are waiting for another move to a larger unit which will allow us to develop and move into other Fields of bait, all in good time.....watch this space!
On the fishing front then, still lots of very big fish are still falling to the Baitworks gear; in fact, a very special fish has just come out of an even more special venue that unfortunately I can’t mention!!!! I will leave it at that!! What a place..............

November is finding me on the bank also!! Hurray, all that time rolling little balls while all the time you boys were fishing during the summer was starting to drive me stir crazy!! Well its time for a spot of winter fishing for myself, but I'm already off to a flyer as some of you will know..... wink wink wink wink!!

Will let you know how I fair on one of the lakes, as for the other it will have stay under my hat so to speak!!


Oct 07 10 Fish Haul

Tom Pollard fished a dream 48hr session to notch up a 10 fish haul including this cracking 30+ common. Atlantic Heat and Monster Red 20mms on mass accounted for the fish from a south west club lake.

Well done Tom, Great trawling!!
 

 


Oct 07 Steve's stunner

Steve Wilks landed this cracking 37+ recently from a very moody south west still water.

50 Atlantic Heat 20mms in the margins proving all that was needed on the day to tempt this big heavy weight.

well done Stevo, proper chunk.


Oct 07

John Rose has came back to the fishing world with style. We thought we had lost the lad to the world of fast cars and beer!


John has been fishing around his local area and already has many fish under his belt.

These two cracking upper 20 commons the result of pre baiting with Atlantic Heat.

Big Pit Result
 
All round nice guy Ben Jenkins has been fishing one of the more larger lakes this season. This near 30 was caught on only ben's second session at the water.
Atlantic Heat bottom baits soaked in glug doing the damage.

Well done Ben.

Back online
 
I now have my PC installed and am up and running again!! 
sorry to those who have sent photos in as I have managed to wipe a load off during the move up here to the water park, DOH!
Never mind, hey, may do some fishing myself at long last? A couple of waters are starting to call and more to the point come ripe, hail the mecca!!! hmmm,  time for a look.....

Aug 07 Stalking cracker

 

Mike Holly from Bristol stalked this superb 35+ common from a Oxford syndicate water. 15 Atlantic Heat 15mms boilies fished at the bottom of a shelf at 2 yards range...Proper way to catch them!!

Top angling Mike.

Just Rewards....
 
After making the switch to Baitworks in the spring Long Dan caught up with his well deserved dream fish. Atlantic Heat 20mms.

 

 

lin33copy.jpg

'At last my dream has come to true, my ambition realised, my goal achieved or any other cliche i think of!
After nearly 3 years, 200 odd nights, 204 stockies, 17 other originals, millions of tench, 2 pike and i dont even wanna how much bait! I finally put the net under the mighty creature that is the Big Lin. I am sure in the end she just felt sorry for me and i bored her onto the bank! I dont care though she was finally mine.
Please excuse me getting over excited about it but i cant tell you how much this beautiful creature meant to me.
A touch of sadness did cross me as i looked up the lake for what is the last time. I always said i would leave for good when she graced my net and i have.
To all those i enjoyed a brew with (and i did get through a few tea bags!) and all those that kept telling me my time would come cheers chaps and i will buy you all a beer when i see you!

Cheers all

(a very happy and still grinning!) Longdan'.

Well said Dan.... I will have a Carling!!


Aug 07 Nice one Mick

 

378augcopy.jpg

Good old Mick Bohane just keeps on catching it seems. Already netting a selection of good fish this season, Mick's prayers were answered for a biggie in the shape of this 37.08 mirror. Large amounts of Atlantic Heat 20mm's again scoring.

Since switching to Baitworks Mick has enjoyed a dream 12 months catching everywhere he has angled.
Nice one Mick.......

Aug 07 Another 40 to the Heat.

 

Chris Davis set a new lake record with this fish of 40.06.

Atlantic Heat 15mms seen Chris catch on all his trips to the Reading Lake.

Excellent fishing Chris.


Aug 07 Monster Red at the Shoe.

 

Justin Badman from Bristol has been catching some cracking fish from Horseshoe Lake, Lechlade.These 2 30's have been ones of many during short spring sessions. (had to wait for the pics as Justin has just joined the Digital revolution!).

Monster Red 15mms in mass producing lots of fish for Justin.
 


Aug 07 Good Times

 

28.03.jpg
28.03..... 2hrs into a session!

With the move up to the Cotswold Water Park now finished I look forward to getting out and and about the lakes hoping to bag a fish or two in between rolling thousands of little balls! (Mines a Tea with Two sugars if you see me on my travels)

This cracking fella was fooled by the new Boilie sticks that have just been released.

28.03 Leather from one of the more tricky lakes up here.....Well happy!
(That's not me sporting a double chin by the way, its just the way I hold them )
Jul 07 Phil Bunyan
38watershot.jpg
38+ for Phil

Another couple of fish for Phil.


12lb Odd Unn!


A three day session on a huge 120acre venue was all in took for Phil to get amongst them. Careful feeding of Atlantic Heat onto a hotspot accounted for the two fish pictured. The smaller one never comes out to our knowledge!

Well done Phil....again!


Jul 07 Like Buses! Big fish captures are flooding in!

markburton42.jpgMark 'Bert' Burton from Evesham put the Atlantic Heat to good effect to land this 42lb near leather from a pressured big pit up the Oxford area. A 20mm pop up at range with 20 free baits fooled the big mirror.

nice one Bert!!

 


Jul 07 40 Heaven
40.02copy.jpg
Atlantic 40 for Ben Smith

Another 40 falls to Baitworks Boilies.

Ben Smith landed this cracking 40+ from a Southern Park lake.
Having just switched to Baitworks, Ben has already been getting regular action on most visits to the lake in question. Atlantic Heat in 20mm again scoring.
Well done Ben.

Jul 07 Red Dawn Three single night sessions proved the down fall of this cracking 49lb fish for well respected angler Simon Scott. Using the new soon to released 'Monster red Sticks', Simon had the Big girl ripping up the bottom in search of more and nailed his target fish at dawn.

Simon Scott 49lb

Very quick work indeed from Mr Scott.

As Simon put it.....3 nights, Job Done.

Great result Simon and simple maths really.....

Quality bait + Quality Angler = Big fish.

Jun 07 Cracker For Kev
39kevcopy.jpg
39+ A.Heat

39lb of Big British Carp! Awesome! Atlantic Heat once again tripping the bigger fish. Fishing 20 yards to the edge of a weed bed, Kevin introduced a total of 5kgs throughout his 48hr stay. Kevin also had 3 other fish to 27lb. Top Angling
