More pics tomorrow. Still have the same amount of photos again, yet to be posted. Makes me incredibly proud to see all of these smiling faces. We work damn hard, constantly. It's when posting these photos on here, that I get a sense of exactly how well things are going. That last lot of boxes you saw with over 100kg of hook baits going off to JohnsonRoss & TackleBox... They were sold out of many of those items within less than a week.
Forum member Mark. Biggest 57+ 'Blackspot'. Well done Mark. First time BlackSpot has ever been caught on the Cheese as far as I know. TC2 over FO particle.
I guess this must be around the 20th time (or more) that BlackSpot has been caught on our hook baits over the past twelve years. There are plenty of other examples of this with so many UK bigguns & our hook baits... But in BlackSpots case, has there ever been a notable biggun in the UK caught more times on one hook bait than that? I doubt it very much.
You will never hear any of that kind of truth above spoken in any mainstream carp media though, because it's all controlled by people with interests in other bait companies/hook baits. Yet you lot are constantly shown photos of fish caught on our hook baits, 'implying' they were caught on something else. Daily. All at it. Or every Joey claiming to know what our process is. I can't even use the word 'curing' anymore, it's a joke. Imagine that. Whilst... Our company name has never been mentioned in any main stream media. I guess for those exact reasons. Does not happen. We don't pay for full timers. I don't do podcasts or any media whatsoever. When something is really real, the effectiveness of the product & the photos sell the stuff anyway. Not that crap above, which is all fake, like them pretty much. It's been a slow process over the past decade & has allowed so many former long term customers to (try) to rip us right off. But it is all real, based on the effectiveness of the product for us & nothing else. The stuff going into the shops has allowed a whole new audience to see now.

There are so many photos to post. I'll have to do it in two or three posts over the next couple of days. If I miss anybody's photo or get a name wrong I am sorry. Three posts below, also showing that kids don't need social media whatsoever to take up carp fishing, as per that recent podcast claiming that they do.
I doubt there are to many double takes on Dinton White Swan these days, if any. James with the Sandford common at 46+ & a 33+ original fully in the net at the same time. Curry-GPB2.



Harvey, one of the A-team from his syndicate. OG-S2.


Forum member Mark, numerous bigguns, this is just a few of what he has caught recently. Banoffee-S2 & Garlics over particle.




Forum member Andy, 40+, OG-S2

Alfie, BabyStella from the Essex Manor, 46+ new PB. Garlics (1).

Stoke Carl, special one from his new syndicate, 40+. Garlics (2).


New customer Ryan. GPB2-Ming. 43+


Paul, Garlics (1)


Colin, oldest carp in Orchid. Five minutes after casting out a Garlic (2).

Jez & son. OG-S2.

I don't know this mans name. New customer who tags us on social media. He had never caught a UK 40+ before. First time using our Garlics (2) he banked this 40+. Then he had another 40+ the very next day. He has not stopped catching ever since.



Alby, Garlics (1)

Jay, Curry-GPB2.

I have so many photos to post when I get a chance, we are on holiday at the mo, these are going up today.
Quite a few of you on here seem to use Jason Riders A bait. He is out in France at the moment. First time ever using our hook baits, the GPB2. He is absolutely smashing them, over a new test bait of his called NB2. He's catching all the lakes bigguns at the mo, he's only been there a couple of days, he's already had 15. Every time I go on Faceache, he's had another 50+.
You should pester him for some of this new bait when he gets back. It would seem to work exceptionally well with our garlics. Jason was very ill over the last year. It's really great to see him on the mend now, back out doing what he loves, smashing them too.

In reply to Post #404 Big thumbs up for the tackle box. I rang them a couple of weeks ago for some hookbaits that weren't showing in stock on the website and true to their word they rang me this morning and took my order. Great service 👏 👍
