A huge launch for Dynamite last year was the Swim Stim F1 Sweet range of groundbait, pellets and pellet soaks. However, it was felt necessary to release a new Cool Water version that gives you the same texture and smell of the original with a new darker colour perfect for winter months and clear water conditions.
This is an easy to mix, low feed groundbait that is perfect for F1s and silvers. It has also proven itself as a great feeder mix when targeting skimmers and bream with cage-feeder tactics.
These unique pellets have a jelly-like consistency and stay on the hook well.
Thoroughly tested by the Ultimate Barnsley Blacks team they are superbly effective and have proved to be devastating on commercial fisheries. RRP: £2. 99 .
We take a look at the new Dark Super Blend from Spotted Fin.
Cold, clear water means one thing, and that is dark groundbait. It is no secret that Spotted Fin has impressed me hugely, so when it sent through the new dark Super Blend I was keen to see what the mix had to offer.
One criticism I have of some dark or black groundbaits is that they don’t actually stay dark once in the water.
Famed for its range of technical and highly advanced carp groundbaits, Japanese bait giant Marukyu is bringing its immense bait knowledge to silver-fish fishing.
The natural range contains several mixes, each with a slant toward a specific species or approach.
River and Big River are, as the name suggests, designed for river work. The standard River has good binding properties to make it ideal for carrying particles to the riverbed before breaking down smoothly.
There have been few bait additives that have had such an impact as krill has over the past few years. That being said, the krill boom seems to have subsided a little but it is still a brilliant ingredient and fish absolutely love the stuff.
The GO2 Krill Super Blend is Spotted Fin’s vision of what a Krill mix should be like. As we have mentioned many times, Spotted Fin is renowned for using high-quality ingredients and the Krill Super blend is no different.
Joe Carass explains why he just keeps going back to the successful Swim Stim range from Dynamite Baits! I have spoken before about being a huge fan of Green Swim Stim. It’s a bait I have used for as long as I can remember and it’s a bait I will continue to keep using. I just wanted to talk about other groundbaits in the range that I also use, and other tweaks that I have since added to my Swim Stim selection. First up is a bream mix that I have used over the past two years that really has served me well, and that is a 50/50 blend of Green and Natural.
Joe Carass looks at the groundbaits from Spotted Fin that he has used over the past 12 months. Last year was the first chance that I really got a chance to properly look through the Spotted Fin range. I had been sent some bits to look at and was immediately impressed with what I saw. Over a year on and I have some real experience with the GO2 blends and have used them extensively with some great results.
