Base Mixes
Mainlines attitude to carp baits has taken the guesswork and complexity
out of putting together a winning, easy to roll combination. Many aspects
are of paramount importance when we develop a product. Firstly all our
products are of the highest quality human food grade. Our buying power
allows us to use only the finest ingredients, shipping them from as
far afield as Japan, New Zealand and Scandinavia. We then pack everything
in the best-laminated foiled bags to ensure you buy the same quality
off the shelf. Taste, texture and palatability are essential considerations,
because a carp, which finds a bait irresistible, is a catchable carp.
We add amino based powdered enhancers and palatants, which not only
serve to attract but also give a bait a round taste to complement
the initial attraction. Mainlines baits are tailored to be instantly
acceptable, but the long life of bait is a vital ingredient of their
success. Our mixes are consistently successful throughout a season and
even season to season, which is important when you consider the time,
money and effort spent on baiting campaigns.
Lastly, but most importantly, a most valuable ingredient is confidence.
Buying a bag of Mainline base mix is buying confidence in a bag. Concentrate
on getting the location and terminal tackle right, safe in the knowledge
that Mainline has already provided top quality bait.
Essential Opal Mix
Based on various birdfeeds, milk proteins, high energy sources and water
soluble fats, this really is a birdfeed bait with a difference. It has
a strong, fruity flavour in the actual base mix giving the bait the
ability to overcome what are generally termed bottom smells
such as weed and in particular silt. It can be used with any flavours
or additives in the Mainline a range, and although aimed at the longer-term
use, it will invariably catch from its first introduction due to its
unique and remarkable smell. A slightly coarser mix than the Yellow
Seed it still remains easy to work with and roll. For anglers that use
ground bait for a carp fishing, Essential Opal mixed 50/50 with bread
crumb will produce a lovely, fruity mix.
Essential Fish Mix
Using attractors from both the Essential Opal and Liver and Marine
Baits, the Essential Fish Mix is a fishmeal different to any others.
It contains the powdered feed inducing agents, palatants and the fruity
edge of the Opal, making it great bait even without added flavours.
Alternatively the Profile Plus flavours or liquid additives can be used
to enhance the smell and taste of the base mix. If fishmeals are being
used on your water and you are looking for that edge this
is the one to try - a winner since filled testing days and still catching
wherever it is used. In fact it is so popular that we are forced to
produce a readymade on the same base!
Liver and Marine Mix
A unique blend of the finest fishmeals with added high fat energy
sources and enriched with vitamins and minerals. It contains the best
liver and amino compounds available and they help give the bait a different
smell and taste. This was designed to be used on fishmeal dominated
waters and be instantly attractive while retaining a significantly different
smell and taste for that added to edge. Fishmeals are not all the same,
as this mix repeatedly proves.
