Hook Baits

These hookbaits are far removed from classic hookbaits of old, which contained very little in the way of soluble attraction. Our exclusively sourced squid hydrolysate, a potent squid and octopus flavouring, and a multitude of powdered ingredients set Signature Squids apart from other the hookbaits on the market. Traditionally fluoro hookbaits have always been a very simple product, a bit of nice flavouring and a simple base mix. We have taken this concept many steps into the future with the Signature Squids. By adding different levels of attraction from soluble fish proteins to fishy flavoured palatants. Each one adds a new dimension to these incredibly attractive hookbaits. As we know every day is different in angling, we have produced the Signature Squids with the ultimate in versatility. Each tub contains three dull, yet visual coloured hookbaits; pink, yellow and white. We have purposefully dulled the colour down with these hookbaits to make them stand out in a more subtle way than a traditional, in your face, fluoro. Signature Squid Wafters are perfectly designed to sink slowly under the weight of your hook, a presentation which can fool even the wariest of carp.

Designed to replicate Manilla Active Boilies, these Manilla Active Wafters are made using a perfectly balanced wafter mix, with a highly soluble, Active paste wrap. For these hookbaits to work perfectly, the coating itself contains an element of buoyancy to help maintain a perfect presentation throughout the breakdown process. As the super-soluble coating breaks down, it slowly settles into a halo of attraction on the lakebed surrounding the wafter at the inner core. Manilla Active hookbaits are specifically designed to work all year round and can release their coating with ease, even in the depths of winter. They are formulated to negate the weight of the hook and rig, a sure-fire way of fooling even the wariest of carp.

Designed to replicate our outstanding Manilla boilies, these pop-ups have been designed to be very user friendly and buoyant. They are completely needle friendly, even in the smaller 12mm size, which are ideal for subtle presentations such as Zigs or Snowmen. The larger, 16mm hookbaits, are more suited to Chod or Hinge rigs as well as the ever-popular Ronnie/Spinner rig. The lighter colour of the pop-ups matches your freebies once they have been submersed in water. If you wish, you can add some extra attraction to your hookbaits by using our Manilla Bait Spray.

Designed to replicate our Krill boilies, the Krill Dumbells are made using the same base-mix, only with added soluble attractors. As an added bonus, each dumbell is encapsulated in an extra soluble coating to maximise their leakage and attraction. The Krill Dumbells make an ideal alternative hookbait for fishing over the Krill Active Mix and Krill Pellets. As well as this, they are a superb choice for stalking and short sessions as the fast-acting coating maximises the instant attraction of these hookbaits.

Designed to replicate our Krill boilies, these dumbell-shaped hookbaits sink slowly under the weight of your hook. By using a semi-buoyant bait, your rig becomes even easier for a carp to suck in and become hooked. The dumbell shape wafters are ideal for use alongside pellets or fished over a mix of chopped baits and small food items. Anglers can customise these hookbaits if they so wish by using The Krill Bait Spray as well as items in our Pure Naturals range.

The Krill Active was formed in 2014, as a means to increase the attraction of the humble boilie during Sticky’s annual jaunts to Lac de St Cassien. It was kept under wraps for many years, with batches being rolled in secret until it was perfected and released as a product in 2020. Following its incredible impact over standard baits, we are delighted to introduce the new Krill Active Shelf Life, which undergoes the same processes as the freezer version. Utilising special machinery, liquids are pumped into the bait, which is then combined with powders to create a durable, yet super soluble and attractive paste wrap. Once submerged in water, this outer coating breaks down slowly, releasing levels of attraction that far surpass that of a standard boilie. Thanks to our use of pure liquids, with high natural salt content, our Krill Active Shelf Life boilies are as close to fresh as we can possibly make them, with minimal preservatives, while still retaining their useability and ease of storage with no need to freeze. They are the biggest step forward in off-the-shelf bait for decades! Our Active baits have out fished standard boilies on every instance, due to their abundance of ammino acids which create a natural feeding trigger for carp!
