Essential Pellets

Over the years we have carefully developed a range of pellets that we hope will cover most angling situations. We are very proud of the fact that they are manufactured exclusively for Essential Baits and are not available elsewhere under a different name!

Shellfish B5 Pellets (Active-Breakdown)

These pellets were formulated to match our Shellfish B5 boilies and contain an active protein ingredient that helps them to break down very quickly and release the same attractive food signals as the boilies themselves. They contain the same attractor profile as the boilies, including FF6 and Betaine, but they also contain a 10% inclusion of micronised crushed hemp to really get the fish grubbing around the baited area! These pellets are perfect for fishing alongside our B5 boilies, Pop-ups and Balanced Hookers.

  CreamCSM Pellets (Active-Breakdown)

These highly attractive pellets match up with our famous CreamCSM boilies and begin to break down as soon as they hit the water to send instant food signals. The pellets contain crushed birdfoods, including hemp, niger seed and peanut meal, together with cereal proteins, milk proteins and elevated levels of betaine. They also contain a sweet cream palatant to give them a lovely caramel cream aromatic profile. Perfect for use in conjunction with our CreamCSM boilies, Pop-ups and Balanced Hookers.

  Natural Squid Pellets (Active-Breakdown)

These Squid-Based pellets have been exclusively formulated for us whilst working in partnership with a large nutritional feed company specializing in producing diets for the aquaculture industry. Our Squid-Stim powder provides the feeding trigger, whilst a combination of fish, cereal and vegetable proteins create a well balanced mid-protein food source, which also contains added betaine and a blend of spray-dried essential oils. It may be worth noting that we can provide matching ‘Natural Squid’ boilies on request under our custom bait rolling service.

Bloodworm Pellets (New formulation for 2008)

Now processed at lower temperatures to preserve nutritional profile and help prevent denaturation of important amino chains. The new formulation also includes added fish feeding stimulants and higher levels of soluble proteins that send out highly attractive water borne food signals. These hyper-active pellets begin to break down as soon as they hit the water to leave an attractive red cloud of pure attraction. Perfect for use in conjunction with our Balanced Bloodworm Hookers.

B5/Betaine Double-Action Pellets

A brilliant combination of two of the best fish feed pellets available and formulated to keep a constant level of attraction coming from the baited area. The B5 Pellets will begin to break down immediately and send out instant food signals, whereas the Betaine Pellets will break down at a much slower rate and release their food signals over a much longer period of time.

Bloodworm/Betaine

Our exclusive Hyper-Active Bloodworm Pellets have been blended with Betaine Pellets to keep a constant level of attraction coming from the baited area. The Bloodworm Pellets will begin to break down immediately and send out instant food signals, whereas the Betaine Pellets will break down at a much slower rate and release their food signals over much longer periods.

  Squid/Betaine Double-Action Pellets

A very synergistic blend of two highly attractive pellets designed to release attraction both short and long term. The Squid Pellets will begin to break down immediately and send out instant food signals, whereas the Betaine Pellets will break down at a much slower rate and release their food signals over a much longer period of time.

Creamseed/Betaine

Yet another very good combination of high quality pellets blended together to create a steady release of attraction over a longer period of time. The Creamseed Pellets will begin to break down immediately and send out instant food signals, whereas the Betaine Pellets will break down at a much slower rate and release their food signals over a much longer period of time.

Mike on Pellets

The use of pellets as a carp fishing bait has been well documented over the years, but their success isn’t surprising when you begin to consider just how many young carp have been fed on them during their early years. Most carp will instantly recognise pellets as a viable food source, and the fact that they break down quicker than boilies means that they release their food signals more efficiently. This will usually encourage smaller fish into the area first, but will often trigger a feeding response from the carp shortly afterwards.

Pellets are also an extremely versatile bait, that can be introduced in a variety of different ways. One of my favourite methods is to use them inside mini PVA bags with a few crushed boilies. The full package is no bigger than a tea bag, but leaves a nice little pile of food perfectly presented and difficult for the carp to ignore!

There are times when I might choose to use larger beds of pellets, but this will normally be on a venue with a much bigger head of fish and I’m trying to create a bit of competition for food. However, even on lower stocked venues, I always like to have a few pouch loads of pellets sparsely scattered around my baited rig. This will always keep a food trace in the area and increase the chances of pulling fish into the baited zone.
