When 5kg of freezer bait arrived in the office, it wasn’t long before the receptionist had sent me a barrage of e-mails asking me to remove the ‘stinky bait’. As you can imagine, I eagerly wanted to see what the culprit was. Having experienced the pulling power of the shelf-life variety, I was impressed to see the quality of the bait and the receptionist was right, a rich powerful fishy aroma just engulfs you as soon as you open the bag. Utilising a low-temperature fishmeal, this bait screams big carp.

Available from 250ml to five litres, these new liquids include old favourites such as Chilli Hemp Oil, Tiger Nut Extract, Liquid Tuna, Betaine and Liquid Salmon. The natural oil utilised in the Chilli Hemp Oil is rich in vital fatty acids such as omegas 3, 6 and 9, which is then decanted in fine-grade chillies for a month until a rich powerful aroma is infused. The Liquid Tuna and Liquid Salmon are rich in naturally occurring oils and will really come into their own as the water warms. Tiger Nut Extract and Liquid Betaine need little introduction, and each liquid has been meticulously filtered for top-quality results.

Lee Jackson’s verdict: Highly attractive and plenty of options available. 4/5 Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: A sticky additive that can be applied to a hook bait or PVA bag to create a continuous plume of attraction, Lava is denser than water, which means it stays around your baited area seeping across the lake bed, attracting attention where it matters most – your hook bait. Within minutes it starts to break down, triggering a rich scent and attractive colour. On zigs it will stream off, creating a cloudy column, giving attraction at many levels.
