Hook Baits

Our arti­fi­cial Buoyant Maggots have now accounted for an incred­ible number of big tench, bream and carp. They rep­resent truly excel­lent value for money and are deadly when used crit­ic­ally bal­anced with both maggot feeders and Method feeders, in particular! The three different sizes of Buoyant Maggot can be used on a wide range of hooks to produce effective baits that are sinking, critically balanced or popped up. They are also very effective in conjunction with a live maggot or as a combination bait with real or artificial sweetcorn. These baits are also pineapple flavoured and dusted in food grade starch powder. The pineapple flavour is a proven attractant which can be boosted or even over-ridden by immersion in more concentrated flavours.

A Bandum is the perfect hookbait for using with a bait band, its unique cylindrical shape with bulbous ends means that they can be banded with ease using a Pellet Bander or a Bait Bander. The bait band sits neatly in the middle slimmer section of the Bandum, this means the hook sits perfectly in the middle of the bait meaning more hooked fish. Also, the Bandum is less likely to be pulled off the hair meaning you can fish more confidently and more efficiently. When fishing for skimmers, match carp or F1's or fishing through the winter months choosing the right sized hookbait is essential and this is when 6mm Band'ums are the perfect choice. They are the smallest in the range, the perfect size for a mini Method Feeder, Pellet Feeder, Banjo Feeder or even fishing on the straight lead and create a visual target which can lead to faster bites, 6mm Band'ums also make an excellent hookbait when using the waggler or pole

The Pescaviva Tutti Frutti Sweetcorn is an orange coloured corn that boasts one of the sweetest, popular flavourings known to carp anglers. Particularly good also for tench, bream, chub and barbel and carp, this sweetcorn contains: sweetcorn grains, water, sugar, salt, colouring E 110, artificial flavours. Best to use as hook bait or mix with groundbait, the bait contains no artificial preservatives or toxic substances and offers a net weight of 340g per tin. Once drained you have 285g of corn. The liquid is useful to add to those dry mixes that you wish to turn into bait balls!

Perfectly suited to feeder fishing lakes for carp and bream these high oil hookbaits make a great target bait when using bloodworm groundbait or feed pellets. These hookbaits have really found favour with river anglers when fishing for barbel and chub. Because the feed used is predominantly pellet based or groundbait made from crushed pellets then they are the perfect choice hookbait as they will match the feed being used.

PESCAVIVA SWEETCORN CHEESE

This is guaranteed to get fish interested in your swim and it is able to be incorporated into any number of loose feed or groundbait mixes with ease. It is completely ready to use because it is pre-cooked, so you don’t have to do any of the work.

Take the highest quality ingredients and the experience of the Mainline team and the result is the Mainline Match Dumbell Wafters. These baits are very precisely balanced, especially when the wafter is used in combination with a small hook. By using this balanced setup, the bait will hold a natural position while lightening the weight of your hook. This creates a very high hooking potential. This, of course, is very interesting when the fish is baiting cautiously.
