Sticky Baits

Manilla Active Shelf Life uses the same process as all our Active boilies, which involves a two-stage coating made up of super soluble liquids along with fine, high-grade powders. The result is a paste layer, which surrounds each bait in a cocoon of attraction, once submerged, this breaks away, leaving a cloudy halo around each bait. Just like the freezer bait counterpart, Manilla Active Shelf Life is specifically designed to release its attractor package even in the coldest water temperatures, meaning the outer coating will break away incredibly quickly even in the winter months. This attribute is why it’s such a brilliant instant bait despite the limiting factors that cold water carp fishing entails. Sweet, nutty and incredibly digestible, Manilla Active Shelf Life uses the same formula of milk proteins and refined nut proteins used in the freezer bait but with the addition of the smallest amount of preservative we can. Our Active Shelf Life range uses natural salts found in the hydrolysates used in the coating process to preserve them without reducing their effectiveness or their ‘active’ nature. With this in mind, Manilla Active Shelf Life has a slightly shorter use by date, compared to that of standard Manilla Shelf Life. Our Active boilies are the biggest step forward in off the shelf bait in decades and are sure to give you an edge.

The original and best Shelf Life Bloodworm-based bait on the market today. Our Bloodworm range is often copied but never bettered! The unique blend of real Bloodworm along with traditional fishmeal-based ingredients make our Bloodworm boilies one of the best and most attractive in our range. Although Bloodworm is a fishmeal-based bait, the combination of LT94, milk proteins, soluble fish proteins, crustacean extracts, blood plasma and Robin Red make it suitable for year-round use. The mix contains fast and slow release energy sources, as well as vitamins and minerals to make sure it is as good for the fish as possible. The finished bait is subtle in smell, yet highly attractive, and sports a deep, rich red colour. Our shelf life baits are all as close to the freezer bait versions as possible, with the only difference being the addition of a natural preservative. This opens the bait up for use across Europe and ensures people who are unable to store freezer baits can still use our range of baits.

The ultimate convenience created with the angler and carp’s needs at the forefront of its formulation, our Spod and Bag Mixes combine ease of use and optimal nutrition in one seamless package.

With active ingredients included, our Spod and Bag Mixes send food signals throughout the water column and due to the varying sizes of particles, will keep fish grubbing around in your swim for hours. Bloodworm Spod and Bag Mix includes our incredible Bloodworm Pellets, along with blood plasma and several marine derived proteins. It matches the Bloodworm range perfectly and can be fished with any of the products under the Bloodworm banner with absolute confidence.

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!

No synthetic chemicals or flavours are added, Krill Glug is 100% natural and cannot be overused. Add freely to bottom baits or hookbaits to add a layer of super soluble attraction for carp to home in on.

A premium-quality, cold-pressed oil that’s extracted from high-grade hempseed on the very first filtration, producing what is undeniably one of the finest carp attractors of all time. The resulting thin oil has a distinctive nutty taste and aroma and will disperse well, even in quite cold water, giving it the edge over most other bulk food oils. Our nutritious Hemp Oil can be used to glug boilies, pellets and hookbaits, toughening and preserving them, as well as elevating the attractiveness of the best baits around. As with all oils, Hemp Oil can be used in conjunction with PVA bag and stick mixes to help improve their pulling power.

Designed to replicate our Manilla 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 Manilla Bait Spray as well as items in our Pure Naturals range.

The Krill Boilies are tailored to perfectly suit the carp’s dietary requirements leaving them actively hunting out the bait as an ideal food source. Not only does the inclusion of Krill add to the nutritional profile of the bait, it is also highly regarded in the aquaculture industry as one of the greatest natural “flavours” and stimulates fish into a feeding frenzy. This devastating boilie comprises of a staggering twenty-five different ingredients including a couple of little gems to which we attribute the bait’s immeasurable success. As much as we love the open and honest approach… we’ve got to have the odd little secret! Our shelf life baits are all as close to the freezer bait versions as possible, with the only difference being the addition of a natural preservative. This opens the bait up for use across Europe and ensures people who are unable to store freezer baits can still use our range of baits.

Made famous by the revered Underwater DVDs, the Bloodworm Pellets are still just as effective today as they were all those years ago. We kickstarted the Bloodworm revolution with our Bloodworm Pellets and they remain one of the best products in the range to this very day. This is with good reason to; they are one of the most devastating feed baits available. The Bloodworm Pellets undergo a two-stage coating process which ensures they are constantly leaking attraction into the water column. The first coating breaks up very quickly, releasing lots of instant attraction whereas the second releases a cloud of bloodworm-infused goodness over an extended period of time. Over the years, we have worked tirelessly on these pellets to ensure that they are produced to the highest possible standard. Bloodworm play a vital role in the natural diet of the carp we all fish for, so what better way to try and catch them, than using something they have a natural instinct to consume, without fear or caution? Countless people report the best feeding response they have ever experienced after using these Bloodworm Pellets for the first time. Can you afford not to try them?
