Introducing the brand-new Instant Action range from Nash with the Coconut Crème. The range is primarily aimed at reasonably stocked waters and designed to get to work as soon as the bait hits the water. A perfect combination of highly attractive sweeteners and enhancers, yet with an optimum food value that make carp find it hard to resist. Among the range are 200g session packs of boilies in a brilliant white colour, with a mouthwatering coconut aroma, in 15 and 20mm, each supplied with a free bag of matching pop-ups.
The first thing that struck me about these bright hook baits was the sheer number of baits in each tub. Call me a dullard, but I emptied a tub and counted 136 back in. That’s phenomenal value for money for any hook baits. There are four flavours in the high-viz versions, namely Peach & Pepper (orange), Pineapple & N-Butyric (yellow), White Chocolate (erm, white, obviously) and the hugely successful Buchu-Berry (pink).

As well as producing baits that are effective and which undoubtedly catch carp, Marukyu also has a 100 per cent environmentally friendly policy, by which I mean all of its baits are fish-friendly and environmentally safe. A classic example is this sweetcorn, which you may mistake for plastic imitation hook baits but which is, in fact, made of 100 per cent natural ingredients. It’s packed full of attractors and resembles real corn superbly. It’s also really easy to use and comes complete with a small amount of liquid attractor in the sealed pouch.

I’ve long been a fan of the PJPU range of pop-ups and use them extensively in my fishing. When these two flavours landed on my desk I immediately thought: “Winter winners”. They’re both from PJPU’s classic range of flavour combinations and each smells absolutely fantastic. The Tutti Frutti is an absolute classic and is available in a range of sizes in orange, yellow, off-white and magenta.
I’ve been sent a few bags of this wonderfully smelling bait and I’m absolutely smitten with it. The unmistakable aroma reminds me of an ingredient in a bait that I’ve tested before but which I cannot quite put my finger on. Whatever the case, breaking one open reveals plenty of ingredients and further releases its distinctive smell. A bait’s smell isn’t everything, of course, but I reckon the Equinox is well set to add to CC Moore’s already hugely successful line-up of baits.

Dynamite has taken the ever-popular Monster Tiger Nut and included a fruit, feed-inducing palatant to give it a twist that will deliver the goods, resulting in a very distinct fruity aroma with a pleasant nutty undertone. The bait’s appearance is equally appealing in a soft pink coloration. Present in the range are shelf-life baits, available in 1kg and 5kg bags in 10, 15 and 20mm. Plus, by popular demand, Dynamite has produced both 1kg and 5kg bags of freezer bait available in 15 and 18mm.
