Stick mixes and liquids are among the best forms of baits to use at this time of year – maximum smell and attraction but limited feed to fill the carp up; you want them to look, but pick up your hook bait in a competitive feeding scenario. Available in a range of sweet and savoury/fishy flavours, Bait Aktivator is the perfect liquid to boost pellets, boilies and particles or to add a cloudy element to spod mixes. Stickmix is ready to use straight from the bag and with an almost moist texture you can form neat little parcels of attractive feed around your hook bait in an instant, with the use of some PVA mesh. I would also like to try and mix it with a few of the liquids to see if it’s possible to make a Method groundbait mix that will explode, releasing various effective attractors throughout your swim.
