Been using Atlantic Heat since it came out. I have full confidence in it. Also used Royal Marine as well, on its own or mixed with the Heat.

My go to hook bait is an 18mm Atlantic heat bottom bait with a 12mm Buckaberry Pop up for a snowman, which has been very effective both here on my syndi and on French trips.

Not fishing for the next few months now due to building work at home but I was planning on using Creamino over the winter as a few of the lads are using it and having fish 👍

Another vote for Atlantic Heat.
Swapped to it at the beginning of the season and have had some lovely fish on it.
Can’t comment on Creamino or the others as have not used them to date.

Used Atlantic Heat a number of years ago and it was very effective throughout the whole year, mostly used it halved, broken, crumbed.

Creamino and Heat for me, Creamino from November through to end of March then onto the Heat for April through to November.

Baitworks hookbaits have for me always been hit and miss over the years, I've used the pop-ups and wafters in all different variations and sometime they do sometimes they dont although the Induce range they launched a few months back are a vast improvement for the pop-ups they'll hold a size 4 up now for at least 24 hours, I generally use their hard hookers in match the hatch and will add or use other manufacturers for pop-ups/wafters.

I had zero confidence in CC moore Live after coming off cell and wanting something similar.
After advice from baitworks and wanting something to suit my fishing (very short sessions) I chose the Monster as its very soluble.

It is a bit bright in the water -poss not a bad thing if doing short sessions though could be a magnet for pick ups off our feathered mates though i didnt have much issue. Needs a bit of an air dry to put through stick though it isnt too soft.

You wont go wrong with any of their baits tbh. Atlantic has a v good track record but been out a long time.

Have used Atlantic heat for a very long time. Have used royal marine and monster red on and off, but got a lot of confidence in Atlantic.

Unfortunately I don’t particularly rate their cork dust pop ups.

I have upmost confidence in Royal Marine. I've used Atlantic heat and done well too. I think they will work anywhere.

Baits like cremeano I'm no fan of, I find that kind of bait to be very lake dependant. I think if a lake responds well to them they will do very very well, but some lakes just don't seem to take well to dairy/seed or nut type baits. But that's just my opinion.

I use a mix of Creamino and Heat - great baits - but don’t always blame the bait for not catching……

There is quite a bit of info out there on Baitworks and they release a few videos as well as Mark appearing on and making their own podcasts.

I've been using Atlantic Heat this year to great success with Handcraft hookbaits used over the top (sometimes as pop ups as I caught a lot on hinge rigs and then hard hookers as a snowman). Used a bit of creamino previously and didn't do that great on it, but maybe I should have given it more of a chance than I did. I don't question the quality if any of their baits though, they all seem to catch so down to personal (or lake) preference

I've used Atlantic Heat previously and it's a very good bait. This year I've used Creamino wafters over a red fishmeal , and that's worked very well.

They'll all work, but if you're looking for bait to use over the winter/spring, I'd give the Creamino a bash.

Use the search function on here, there should be plenty of info on all of their baits.

Evening all,

I have been hammering my current bait (CCMoore Live System) on my local water and have had little success. Success none the less but i would have expected to have had more bites by now. Especially since last night my rigs were on top of showing fish from about 18:30 until 00:30.

Baitworks have their 20% off offer on once again and i am thinking of picking up one of their 5KG bundles but im debating which one.

There is little on the net about the success of each so i a m curious to know what the collective thoughts are here?

At the moment im swaying toward the Monster Red.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thanks

Daniel
