Just watched a video on the new bait,looks very interesting.It has no eggs in the mix just uses the ingredients to bind it together.Due for release in the spring,might give this a try

All 3 of the current boilies are good, atlantic heat has certainly stood the test of time. Personally, I like the monster red. The heaven and hell pop-ups are good value, you get loads of the little barrel ones in a tub and they make a good snowman with the 18mm boilies. I think you can still get a small sample pack if you want to see the difference between the baits. I'd happily cast any of them out and feel confident doing so.

I moved to BW royal marine after ditching sticky krill last year, and have no regrets at all.

Can recommend the Atlantic Heat shelf life baits, done me proud from last Spring and have already feed some carp in the margins 2 weeks ago, it works all year just fine, I haven't used any of their other products.

I was thinking of going the other way from DNA.
Nearly bought the 30k DNA deal last week and then it seems they've take it down and I thought I'd try something new. Didn't do too well on S7 so not like I'm 100% sold on it.

When I compare it's £30 more from Baitworks so not that much more expensive and if this new one works then worth it. Will only know if I try though.

That's why I'm interested in the Creamino especially.

First time I've heard of S7 not catching fish , in fact it's the first ever post I've seen with any kind of negativity, no offence though , how long have you been using it without much success ?

Never said I didn't catch on it just didn't do amazingly well, tried it for a full 12 months.

Was a hard water mind but I was wondering if a non fish meal and something different would do better.
Was thinking of moving onto a 50/50 mix of s7 and the switch but they dropped the 30k deal and then see The Creamino, hence me asking the question.

Baitworks user for the past 8/9 years. Atlantic Heat is my absolute go to bait, done me so well over the years.

CreAmino will be my Autumn/Winter bait, not got my hands on any yet, but will be ordering end of the month. Their shelf life, as like many companies nowadays, are nothing like what they used to be like, they barely compromise on quality and extremely reminiscent of their fresh/freezer bait.

Moved into a property with the missus and can't take up freezer space so have 5kg of Atlantic Heat Shelf Life and I can't tell the difference between them and the freezer baits.

What's the advantage of not using eggs?

Quite a few, in fact but the most relevant to carp anglers are:

Eggs buffer pH so inhibit potential low-pH attraction.
They contain a trypsin inhibitor which can stall the uptake/utilisation of bait protein.
They slow down the release of natural and artificial attraction.
They slow down or inhibit water ingress which slows the breakdown rate.
Egg-based bait is harder to digest.

But everyone using fresh liquid eggs, homemade or commercially, for making boilies have caught how many carp ?
Carp cannot be that bothered by fresh liquid egg, or the results would show that non egg baits were the dogs wotsits .

Yes, of course, every carp swimming will eat or at least pick up pretty much anything at one point or another.

Kens post did not suggest they won't work (if made with eggs), it was merely the potentials of what eggs could do to a bait, thus increasing the bait by not using them.

Can eggs cause carp to stop feeding? Definitely not.

Can they impact how/when they feed on a particular bait? Possibly, in my opinion. They will however eventually feed on that item regardless, whether eggs are included or not, again, in my opinion.

How many people would have used a boiled bait without some form of binding it, powdered, fresh or albumen?

Exactly, No one would, 4 or 6 eggs were the most cost effective means of holding it all together, and giving it the nuisance fish proof skin, it would be impractical to roll and use it otherwise.
Even using horrible binders like wheat gluten in large amounts, we still caught enough.

Do our current/future boiled baits need to focus more on solubility and digestibility than previously thought?
Is this the start of a trend to go liquid egg free, or is it a convenience, shelf life thing.

Egg albumen is a point in itself. A fantastic binder but in my opinion a terrible ingredient......the goodness is locked up inside and water ingress/exchange is all but halted.

Just because a bait doesn't contain eggs does not mean it doesn't contain egg derived products

Not saying this is the case with the Cre-Amino, just saying!

I have never said that egg-based boilies are no good, just that there are some disadvantages as well as advantages. An excellent alternative binder would be whey protein...Or wheat gluten, anybody???

They use dried eggs rather than in the shell. Storage and eas of use. Dried egg dose not go off like in the shell, takes up less room and less time. No waste.

All 3 in a bucket, pour glug over the top and leave to soak in.

Cremamino is getting a good following, rumour is it's not the same as Elliot came up with, to exspensive, but the alternative is working. Like anything, put enough half decent in and the mud pigs will get on it eventually.

Don't think a long term review can be done for at least a year. If it's like the rest of the range it will stand the test of time......

For some reason I thought it was but just watched the video and confirmed it wasn't, I will order 20kg and see how I get on, if it's like any of the other range it will do well.

I am having success on the pop ups.

I am not a fan of the bottom baits tbh. They break down after a while and are succeptible to silver fish pecking away at them.


Will try the hard hookers before i discount them

I've used both John Baker and Baitworks mixes. Love them both.

If you're just starting then I'd go for a Baitworks mix with the matching liquid. Then you've got everything together. Dead easy to mix as well.

Giving an old thread a bump - I bought a load of this (and some Atlantic heat) on black Friday and just opened my second 5kg shelf life bag.

I expected it to be quite a soft bait but I've been surprised at how hard it actually is. Even after a 24 hour soak in water the texture is still quite hard/dry/powdery towards the middle compared to the DNA bait I was using before.

So to the long term users of this bait, Is that the normal texture of creamino?

I was planning on saving the Atlantic heat until the spring but tempted to open a bag to see how firm they are too

Likewise I've found it to be incredibly soft out of the bag. That said, once opened, the shelf lifes do toughen up a little but not enough for concern. Does sound odd
