It’s the perfect time for a big catch down the edge. Dan Webb picks out the groundbaits which could help you…
Sonubaits Chunky Fish
What’s in the bag?
Real chunks of dehydrated fish mixed with a blend of quality fishmeals and a selection of high-protein ground pellets.
Why we love it:
A proper stinky mix of the rawest kind of fishmeal possible. Big and hungry specimen fish absolutely love it, especially in the warmest water in the height of summer.
Price: £7.99 for 2kg, www.sonubaits.com
Spotted Fin GO2 Margin Super Blend
What’s in the bag?
A slightly sweet mix with plenty of strong fishmeals and lots of food content. Contains a range of particle sizes.
Why we love it:
Fishy with a sweetness to it. The 1kg bags are great for a short session, while the 3kg bag will last all day and is resealable.
Price: £4.99 for 1kg, £13.99 for 3kg, www.spottedfin.com
Hinders Mark Pollard’s Supercharged Margin Mix
What’s in the bag?
This mix features the finest ingredients blended with salmon fry crumb for an extra fishy edge. Light colour and full of feed.
Why we love it:
Highly visible and mega attractive, not just to carp, but to F1s, tench and bream too!
Price: £3.99 for 900g, £6.25 for 1.75kg, www.hinders.co.uk
Dynamite Big Fish Mix
What’s in the bag?
A coarse recipe packed with a mixture of high-protein crushed pellets, sweet biscuit and quality fishmeals.
Why we love it:
A sticky and heavy consistency allows it to carry plenty of particles if required, and keeps the fish near the bottom. A biscuit base makes it ideal for year-round use.
Price: £6.29 for 1.8kg, www.dynamitebaits.com
Mainline Match Margin Mix
What’s in the bag?
A super-rich mix of fishmeal and ground pellets, packed full of particles in a handy resealable bag.
Why we love it:
A heavy mix that keeps the fish near the bottom. A lovely pellety smell makes it ideal for use on venues that are subjected to a lot of angling pressure.
Price: £4.19 for 1kg, www.mainline-baits.com
Sensas Crazy Bait Gold
What’s in the bag?
High-quality pellets, fishmeals and stimulants are blended with a double fish formula.
Why we love it:
A favourite for years, and a very versatile groundbait. It can be mixed dry and cloudy to draw fish into the swim, or wet to concentrate them on the bottom.
