Club
pit old un.
Laurence Yates sent me through this pic of a old Club lake 20lb+.
The lake in question is very snaggy and at times very tricky. Laurence
has been steadily applying the Atlantic Heat to a few areas over a
period of weeks.
The young Cirencester angling has now had a string of gorgeous fish that
are black as your hat!
When they look like this weight is immaterial.

Big
Orange meets Big Red!
Only the other week Greg and I were talking about this awesome fish and
how Greg would dearly love to catch it.
Big Red only puts in an appearance once or twice a season, so when Greg
and his son Jake booked up for a few days fishing they knew they would
be up against it. In very hot conditions the pair notched up over ten
fish between them before Greg on the last morning landed a brace that
included Big Red at 31+ and the Baby Awesome at 26lb!
Not a bad mornings work. Both fish came to a combo of Atlantic Heat and
Monster Red 18mms soaked in our superb Hot Fish Oil.
Top Result Greg. Well done.

Mr
Consistent
Ever consistent Rob Morris sent us over his latest instalment of fish!
This 32lb beauty from Farriers came along with 2 other twenty plus mirrors on a single over night session.
The Swindon angler used 3kg of our legendary Atlantic Heat soaked with the New Hot Fish Oil.
All fish came at 40 yards range.
Top result Rob.

Triumphant Taylor
Jake Taylor wins the British Young Carper 2010 at Linear Fisheries,
Brasenose Two.
A massive congratulations to Jake who fished his socks off in the
Qualifier on Tuesday and then in the final on Friday -
Sunday. Fishing at a range of 130 yards Jake used our awesome Hot Fish
Oil in conjunction with a special sloppy spod mix and liquid that
I designed especially for the the event.
All fish came to Zigs soaked in the Hot fish oil presented at
varying depths during his stay. I was sat with Jake on Saturday evening
and then again on Sunday morning, the amount of work that went into
his fishing was incredible. Constant spodding and tweaking! A big
mention must go to Father Greg and friend Colin who worked very hard in
the background making sure rods were clipped, bait was sorted etc.
Well done Team!
Jake finished up with over 20 fish landed for a combined weight of 301lb
which I believe is a venue record for the BYCA event.
Well done Jake from all of us at Baitworks.

Russell
up a PB.
Russell Jones made quick work of upping his PB when he shot straight
from work to Farriers for an overnighter.
Some two hours later Russell was doing battle with this stonking 39lb
common! Russell fished at short range to a silt patch and introduced 200
18mm Atlantic Heat shelf-life boilies.
Big congrats from all the Baitworks team, well done fella!!

Advanced
Carp.
In this months Advanced Carp you can catch up with our very own Richard
'Cash' Farnan as he fishes an overnight session on a South West pit.
Rich chalked up over seven bites during his stay, this twenty among the
pick of the bunch.
Monster Red 18mms soaked in our Hot Fish Oil fished in the margins
accounted for all the fish.

Hot oil action
Head Farriers bailiff Shane O'Grady received his fresh batch of Atlantic
Heat and hot fish oil the other day. The Swindon angler quickly put the
bait to good use over at Farriers by landing a string of good fish on
single overnight sessions. These cracking 30lb+ commons the latest
victims to succumb to the awesome Atlantic Heat 18mms and Hot fish oil
combo.
Well done Shane, top angling.

Ever Consistent Dave Bodmin popped an email over to me with a pic of a

Dave had been trickling the Atlantic into a couple of areas for a while
now and on his first night he nails this chunk.
38.12 of home grown carp.
Top result Dave!

Rod
What a season this guy is having! Taron Warner has been concentrating on
a very tricky South West pit this season.
Taron wisely put his faith in the Atlantic Heat as this bait has
dominated this venue for the last 5 years and shows no sign of stopping.
Fishing for a couple of night at the venue, Taron introduced 2kg during
his stay and notched up two fish in quick succession, 25lb+ and this
lovely 34lb+ ( pictured).
Taz fished at 40 yards range to a area he had spotted fish rolling
the previous morning.
Top result m8.
We will be interviewing Taz for the Club Baitworks section soon.

Reading
results
Kevin Haskins from Bristol sent me over a couple of pictures this week.
Fishing on a Reading Syndicate water, Kevin has been enjoying consistent
results this year. This 31.08 has already been landed once on the
Atlantic Heat, so Kevin wasted no time at all to make it twice!
Other fish of note were 29.08 and 25.8 all falling to the
mighty Atlantic Heat.
Well done Kev.

Dan sent us through this cracking 35+ linear from his local syndicate.
Dan had been applying the KingFish through out the closed season as was
rewarded opening morning with this old character.

Tony
Roberts
Tony Roberts has been fishing over at Wraysbury No.1 for a few
seasons now.
From his observations from the boat Dave commented how the Boilies from
a leading brand would remain uneaten on the lake bed for days and even
weeks before they were eventually cleared by birds etc.
Since switching to the Atlantic Heat Dave tells me that the baits
are gone with-in 2-3 days of baiting.
This cracking linear does not see the bank much in Wraysbury, so Dave
was ecstatic to catch it so soon after switching to Baitworks gear.
Top result Dave.

Prince
Prince Giles is no stranger to this page.
Luckily the local tanning shop was fully booked so Giles took full
advantage of a free evening and went fishing. The Cirencester squirrel
caught this 26.4 in the early hours of the morning. What a fish! Check
out the video in the
Club Baitworks section. Atlantic Heat 18mms soaked in our Hot Fish
oil too much for this fish to pass up.

Jamie Cook
New Baitworks user Jamie Cook has been tackling a couple of tricky
waters this season.
Fishing with 15mm Atlantic Heat, Jamie informs us that two of his
targets have been achieved already.
Both fish pictured have been on Jamie's wish list for a while now.
I'm sure you agree both are classic looking fish.
Well done Jamie, we are sure more and more will follow!

I don't really know how to write this one!
Nathan Fox fished up at Farriers recently and had what only can be
described as a dream session.
Fishing over a 10 day period, Nathan notched up an incredible 27 fish
haul with 10 x 30's and 3 x 40's!! Nathan has been using our new Hot
Fish oil in conjunction with Atlantic Heat 18mms. The Hot fish oil is a
liquid that can be used for a number of functions.....soaking hook
baits, PVA bag work, coating free baits, the list is endless.
The fox fished at varying distances and applied Atlantic Heat steadily
during his stay to keep the fish in his area. A top result from
an angler that knows his stuff and testament to the Atlantic Heat,
this is the best catch out of the lake in question.
Well done foxy.

Horseshoe return.
Being so busy over the last month or so I relished the opportunity to
fish at one of my old haunts Horseshoe Lake in Lechlade.
I was invited over as part of the Trakker team to cover new products and
hopefully catch a few fish for the camera. Although the fishing was very
slow I did manage to winkle out a total of 6 fish over a couple of
nights by moving onto showing fish. All fish were caught on Atlantic
Heat shelf-life's soaked in our new Hot fish oil. These were cast
to showing fish with a small PVA Atlantic Heat stick attached to aid
presentation in the weed. The fish pictured are 26lb and 27lb.

Advanced carp editor Richard Stewart is having a dream season.
Fishing on a selection of waters Richard has caught some huge fish this

This 41lb+ fish from Cemex Kingsmead was captured during a feature
for the magazine. Rich fished one of our special white pop ups over
a spread of Atlantic Heat 18mms at range.

Wayne Guest from Bristol sent me through this pic of a cracking mid

After picking his bait up from my unit, Wayne then commented that he may
pop into his local lake for a little dabble if he had time.....A
short while later a text appeared on my phone with the fast result!
Atlantic 18mms fished at short range produced the goods for Wayne.

Taron Warner (Taz) was ecstatic to catch his target fish recently.
The 40.12 mirror was just rewards for all the hard work this young lad
had put in at the venue. I must say it was a pleasure to pop down and
do the photo's and share in the moment with 10 or so like minded
anglers.

Taz fished over a total of 3kg of Atlantic Heat 18mms to a small gravel
feature.

Gary
King
Head bailiff Gary King sent us over a few snaps of some cracking fish he
has been catching from Carp Society's Horseshoe lake, Lechlade.
Fishing with our 12mm Monster Red barrels at 60 yards accounted for this

Another cracker
for Mike. This 30.4 came on a single over night session from a private

that day, fish of 10.4, 15.5, 17.8, and a 22.9 common all falling to

What a result this is! Giles Harris returned to a very pressured South
West venue for a over night session.
Having not fished the venue since last year the Cirencester angler
returned in pursuit of some of the fine residents that the lake holds.
The next morning the phone was ringing and a ecstatic Harris was
persuading me to come down and take some shots. The 38.4 stunner marks a PB common for Harris. Giles
introduced plenty of Atlantic Heat to a area he had seen a fish roll in,
again the Atlantic turning them over.

"Hi Mark
2nd night on a new North West water and had a result on Atlantic Heat

Gasp
Ben Smith from Bristol had some pay back for his extreme baiting
up efforts that include a 90mile round trip to and from the venue.
With the coldest winter ever and very few captures from the venue
this season, Ben was ecstatic to see his Buzzer burst into life with
an angry carp attached. The 21lb although a small one for the lake
was just rewards for all the effort and commitment Ben had put in
through out the winter.
Monster Red 18mms tripped the mirror up at 60 yards range.
Nice one Ben.

Ever
faithful.
Dan the Pieman has been consistently catching them at a local club
lake Wick water.
The local angler has been steadily applying the Atlantic Heat 18mms and
has been awarded with a string of good fish.
This 24+ was caught along with two other fish of 17lb and 20lb. These
were the only fish caught off the bottom that week! All fish were on the
ever faithful Atlantic Heat pop ups soaked in Glug.
Well done Dan, sure a biggie is just round the corner.

What great weather we are having! Those horrid winter months are
now becoming a distant memory as the UK carp start to move and feed
around the country.
Tom Pollard of Cotswold Rods sent me this pic of a cracking 30.12
mirror.
The fish affectionately known as big Red came in a hectic 2 hour feeding
spell that accounted for two other fish of 17lb and 19lb. Tom introduced
2kg of Monster Red 18mms at close range to kick off his 2010 season in
style.

Acorns.
Apart from catching carp and fishing bait my next love would have to be
fish farming, to watch fish grow from egg to large carp is
hugely addictive and massively rewarding. I always make myself available
to help out at Simon and Viv's fish farm when needed. Only last
week Simon asked if I could help out for the day, so with the alarm set
for 5am, I was soon off on my way down to Sussex to literally get
up close and personal with lots of carp, mud and sweat!
Draining the ponds and moving the fish up to the holding tanks we
set about grading and weighing the fish. I have to say that these fish
are absolutely stunning, just to have these 6-7lbers in your hands
and know that they will be off to big fish waters round the country
is positively humbling. I remember last year grading the fish that
were destined for the Carpark lake at Yately before Mick and Roo from
Cemex picked them up.
That was an awesome experience that left me buzzing for the rest of the
day!
The shot of these two crackers sums up the day at VS fisheries. A very
hard days graft but very rewarding.

Just
the tonic.
Jake Taylor made his return to fishing in style this week.
The Bristol angler has had ligament damage in his right knee, so was
forced to watching carp fishing on the TV for 5 weeks. After the Doc had
given him the all clear, Jake and his dad Greg ventured up to the Thorpe
Lea complex armed with our new Monster Red 12mm barrels and our soon to
be released stick mix.

The pair notched up an incredible 27 takes
landing 22 fish over their 24hr session.
The haul included six twenties,
Jake is pictured here with a couple of the better ones.
All the fish
came at range on a very cold Winter's day.

The
big thaw!
This 26.6lb common came before the big freeze an a bitterly cold night.
With all lakes frozen all we can do is sit and wait for the weather to
change.
Very frustrating for those who have baited and primed for
the winter....Back to square one!
The common pictured was caught on Monster Red pop ups over a
light scattering of bait.

Spot
The Water Park Prince has had another from a Private Cotswold Venue.

for Roger
What a fish!
Roger Williams had been serving his time on a notoriously hard South
West venue.
Travelling from Bridgewater, Roger would relentlessly fish
every weekend in search of one of the lakes jewels. Well they don't come
much better than this 41.01lb that registers both Personal Best for
Roger and lake record to
boot!!

Monster Red 18mms fished at short range to a gravel feature.
Fantastic fish and I was very privileged to be asked along to do the

The
Guest Fish
A single overnighter for Giles Harris turned up this 28lb+ for
the Cotswold angler.
Fishing a private venue, Giles recorded his 3rd fish from the water that
only opens for part of the year.
Atlantic Heat 15mms fished at short range with a scattering of hemp did
the trick again.

Over
Nighter
Popping in for an over nighter on a pre-baited patch again turned up
trumps for myself.
Fishing over light weed at 50 yards I presented 3 baits popped up at
varying heights.
This 27lb+ mirror ripped off early morning before work.
Fantastic fish.

New
water, same result
Swindon angler Rob Morris sent us through this pic of a 30lb+ from a new
water.
Rob fished as a guest at the South West venue, and quickly set about
introducing 2kg of Monster Red 15mms to a feature at close range.
This mirror picked up his popped up hook bait just an hour into his
stay.
Top marks Rob.

Late
Giles Harris had some explaining to do when he was late for work
the other day.
Fishing an overnight
session, the Cotswold angler had
a hectic morning landing two crackers from a private
South West water.
The two upper twenty's came from a pre-baited spot just 10 yards out.
15mm Monster Red and Atlantic Heat pop ups fished over a scattering of
boilies the winning
combo.
Great result for Giles.
The water in question has only done a few bites
this season but all fish have come to Baitworks
products.

Beauty
What can I say about this corker.
This 25.10 simply took my breath away when it rolled in my net the other
morning. The colours at this time of year are something else. This fish
was landed after a overnighter on a pre-baited patch that so far has
been turning up the goods for me.
A mixture of Atlantic Heat and Monster Red 15mms proving to much to
resist for another of the lakes hidden secrets.

Please not that all Baitworks boilies have been winterised for the

Back
on the Bank
With the summer over I have finally managed to put together a campaign
on a large Southern water that I have walked round a few times this
year.
Introducing a mixture of Monster Red 15mm and 18mms to a couple of areas
of light weed most weeks had be chomping at the bit to get over for my
first session.
After rolling the last boilie of the day I jumped in the car and made my
way for the first overnighter on the baited patch.
After a quiet night the middle rod goes into melt down at 5.30am, seeing
me flying out the bag to grab the rod in question. 10 minutes of heavy
lunges and this superb 30.10 mirror is in the bottom of my net.
I was blown away with the beauty of this very old fish, spot on.
No sooner had I weighed the fish then the other rod was off! This one
weighed in at 30.09 and was like a solid block of chocolate!
Photos done and the swim and I a total mess!
A fantastic start, lets hope there's more to follow?

Big un.
Dave Bodman from Wiltshire has been in touch with details of this superb
37.01 capture.
Fishing a small 2.5 acre lake with a small head of fish in it, Dave used
our Atlantic Heat 15mms during his visits to the lake. Last week
produced 2 x 30lb+ and this week Dave hit the jackpot with the 37.01
fish pictured.
Dave was especially happy as most of the other lake users are on a
different bait and piling lots in.
Just goes to show that a quality bait such as the Heat doesn't need lots
and lots of baiting for it to be recognised.
Totally instant and totally awesome.
Well done Dave.

First
session result.
We had this e-mail sent through by Dan from Kings Lynn.
I recently had a 72hr stint at Willowcroft Fisheries and Wisbech Cambs
with my brother Jason
Using some Atlantic Heat pinched from my father-in-law we managed 23
fish in total over a large spot baited with hemp and boilies.
Between us we managed more fish in our stint than all of the other 6
anglers on the lake at the same time.
Our haul included 7 doubles 11 twenties and 5 thirties. What's
remarkable was a double capture of our second largest fish of 32.7lb.
I caught this fish on the first night and my brother re-caught it on the
3rd night!!
The largest fish came in at 34lb called half tail, so a regular told me.
Not only did we manage a large haul but we managed a double capture a
new personal best for both of us. The 34lber pictured was a named fish
to I've managed to cross off 3 goals in 1 session...a new pb, an English
30 and a named fish.
Although you must always hear I feel this its all due to our bait the
Atlantic Heat. All other anglers were blanking or only getting 1 or 2
fish we definitely had a session we wont be forgetting for a very long.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to getting my
hands on the winter version of the Atlantic Heat many thanks for
producing such a remarkable bait, keep it up.

Holiday!
Having a few days off to go angling is very much a luxury for me at the
moment.
The demand for the bait is as high as ever putting tremendous pressure
on myself to fulfil orders each week. There is however light at the end
of a long dark tunnel! Wheels are turning in more ways than one!
Watch this space.
B ack to the fishing.....A few days over the fantastic Churn pool was
tonic for a Holiday that so desperately needed to recharge and refocus.
I did book the lake for 7 days and took full advantage of this by
introducing 25kg of boilies to two areas of the lake in the hope of
having options if the weather was high or low pressure.
Turning up to fish Wed-Sunday I was a little more than confident that
one of the big commons would make a appearance. After moving swims I
finally got amongst the action and landed fish of 14.8, 16.8, 19.9,
24.10 and 30.01. The 30.01 common was The Long common and yes I did
reweigh the fish twice to make sure on the weight!!
All fish were taken on a mixture of our surface slickers, Atlantic
Heat/Monster Red boilies.
The Sunday night entertainment was the Baitworks BBQ!
Thanks guys For all your help with the night.
Great to see everyone together.

Greg Taylor has been trying to break the 30lb barrier for some time now.
Having been very very close on a few occasions the needle never crept
over the magical mark.
Greg excitedly phoned me on a Saturday evening to inform me he had
caught not one but two 30+ plus fish within minutes of each other!

John Rose has been back down to Rockford again.
Those poor fish have to endeavour this man sticking another hook in them
before he lets them rest.
This resent visit resulted in this 42.8 plus others of 33.10 and 24lb.
Atlantic Heat 18mms fished at short range accounted for another haul for
the likable Welsh man.
Well done m8.

Big
Red.
Dan (Pieman) sent us through this pic from a resent session over at
Churn Pool.
This fish known as the Big Red has been on Dans wish list for sometime.
Using the ever faithful Atlantic Heat 18mms, Dan introduced 4kg over his
stint at the lake. This beautiful 30+ was the highlight of his 6 fish
catch at the Pool.
Great result m8.

Unstoppable!
Another successful trip to Rockford this week for John Rose resulted in
two 20's and one of the most sought after fish in pond, this lovely
looking 37lbs 8oz mirror. What a fish!
John used a total of 7kg of Atlantic Heat 18/15mms and was coating his
freebies in our Atlantic Heat oil which is currently on test.
Fantastic result John....again.

Nathan Horton recently made the switch over to Baitworks boilies and has
had a excellent start on the bait.
Fishing on a very pressured South West venue Nathan has now caught 6 of the residents in a very short amount of time. This 31lb and 26lb coming
in the same session. The ever faithful Atlantic Heat still proving to be the only choice for anglers who target these types of waters.
The local angler fished up against a weed bed and used 3kg of 18mms over his weekend stay.
Top result Nathan.

This 39.06 common his latest capture. Reg fished a 18 mm pop up over 2kg
of scattered Atlantic Heat bottom baits.
Another top result for Reg.
Well done M8.

Lake
61.
Rob Morris from Swindon had this cracking 31.12 common from the Carp
Society's lake (Farriers).
Rob fished with Monster Red 18mm bottom baits at 40 yards to trip the
fish on a single overnighter between work.
Again another result for the ever consistent Swindon angler.

Atlantic
Brace.
Andy Williams had a session that he will never forget this month.
Fishing over at Churn Pool Fishery in the Cotswolds, Andy picked an area
of the lake that he knew would receive a fresh westerly wind that was
forecast the next day.
Baiting up with Atlantic Heat shelf life 18mms at a range of 15 yards,
Andy set his traps and awaited the due weather change. The next day Andy
landed a brace of big
commons at 32.10 and 34.04 within minutes of each
other. We were on hand to capture it all on video (currently on Club
Baitworks) and what a pleasure it was to share the moment with two
fantastic commons on the bank.
Superb result Andy

Return
of the Rose.
We had not heard from Mr Rose for a while and suspected that the welsh
wizard had once again slipped into the socialising trap once more! We
always knew the force was Strong with this one and when this picture
appeared in my in-box I did have a smile to myself.
John hasn't been angling since his last exploits on Rockford last summer
catching a silly mount of fish in very little time.... Well, on his very
first session back John only manages to lands the biggest fish in the
lake 38.8lbs (spawned out) inside 24hours! Mr Rose baited in the margins with
100 x 15mm Atlantic Heat boilies coated in the matching dip and watched
the fish pick up his hookbait before steaming off towards the centre of
the lake.
A fantastic result John...Welcome back!

Paul
Allen
Micro sent us though this pic of a 28lb+ caught from a very tricky south
west water.
Micro used the new KingFish 18mms and introduced 2kg during his two
night stay.
Top result fella.

Great
start
Jake Taylor got off to a flier over at Carp Society's lake 61.
Turning up for his first night Jake fished at 60 yards range to a silt
patch. The Bristol rod is currently testing an Atlantic Heat stick mix
and a very special oil for us. Judging from the results it looks like
another two solid products will be released shortly. This 30.8 common
screamed off in the middle of the night with a 18mm Atlantic Heat bottom
bait to signal a dream start for Jake.....
Top angling m8.

Top
Slick
Well what a heatwave we are having! Even the tench are up on top getting
a tan and I'm sure that Paul "Micro" Allen was shrunk passed 4ft in the
relentless mid-day heat!
We are set to release the Baitworks floaters, namely "Top Slick".
I have been messing about with these for around a year now and have
given Mr Fox a few Kg's to have a dabble on some of his waters. Results
have been very good, this 28.12 cracker was caught along with 2 others on a
short day session by myself.
The floaters have been formulated with a addictive taste profile and a
awesome mixed oil content that flattens the surrounding surface water.
We have also added a liquid food that travels downwards through the
water column (very important).
We are sure these are set to catch an awful lot of carp over the years.
