Thank you all for the kind words. I maybe the most miserable see you next Tuesday in the world sometimes, but I do love you all. I had my operations five hours ago. Still high as feck & gibberish rubbish from the general anesthestic & morphine...But they tell me the operations went well.

Forum member Ben is at Horton again.

Forum member Ben at Horton Church in just a few hours today with one rod in the water. Half a Hutchie S2 13mm balanced with small bags of pellet.

A couple of worldies there Ben. Bloody well done sir you are making that place look easy. Epic angling. Video shot by Oli Davis, thanks for helping him Oli if you read this.

Thank you as well Dave.

One of our own as well. I've said it before. There are some truly exceptional anglers who frequent this forum, often in the shadows sadly. People like Ben should be speaking up & giving out advice as they are clearly gifted anglers. He's walked onto Horton & making it look easy.... From day 1.

Unfortunately, just like in carp fishing as a whole, it's always the non gifted ones who make the most noise. That's just life.

But people should 100% be listening to what Ben has to say. Same goes for Paul who's common I posted from one of the toughest venues in the UK. Same goes for Stuart who's is currently going through a very noted CV syndicates stock, like a hot knife through butter. There are many others too.

All have the upmost wisdom to share. Real anglers without agendas.

Josh @ Wellington Country Park. 49lb+ & 45lb+. Fizz S2. Back of camera shots.

Both are repeat captures to the Fizz. This is the information I needed personally regarding our newest creation. Repeats of incredibly pressured fish. There are certain elements to the Fizz that are all new. Radically new. They are more than a gorgeous smell. Those of you that have the balanced Fizz will have noticed that they have a completely different texture to all our other hook baits. Almost mushy on the outside. This does not visibly show up on the pop ups, as they need drying out far more throughly. But it's still there. They are active in the true sense of the word. I have some videos to post eventually, showing a Fizz S2 in the water after 2 hours, 24 hours then 48 hours. These will suprise you as to what's actually going on.

The most popular question I get asked right now, is are the Fizz S2 Hutchies Nouvelle Fizz. Their name comes from what I just described above. They actually Fizz.

The fact they are already banking repeats on one of the most competitive big carp syndicates in the UK is the stuff I was expecting to hear. It's good to actually hear it though.





Craig, 32+, best of five. GPB1



Nash consultant Jacko, RedBerryVanilla S2 over Scopex Squid









Forum member Steve in France, RedBerryVanilla S2 over DNA Bug, 49+, first of loads apparently



Stoke Carl, 40+ year old mirror, Fizz S2
