Manilla Shelf Life This all-year-round range utilises a peanut protein exclusively available to us and never before used within the bait industry. If you have ever used peanuts before, we’re sure you’ll be aware of just how addictive carp find them, however due to the high fat content it has previously only been possible to use them in small quantities – not any more! This revolutionary ingredient has been partially defatted leaving an end product that carp not only find irresistible but also ticks all the right nutritional boxes. As with all of our baits, the secret to Manilla lies within more than one ingredient, so the rest of the mix is made up of a complex combination of blended milk proteins and bird foods with an exceptional track record.
The Krill Shelf Life Harnessing one of the most nutritional micro-organisms known to man, The Krill Shelf Life Boilies have been tailored to perfectly suit the carp’s dietary requirements leaving them actively hunting out the bait as an ideal food source. Not only does the inclusion of Krill add to the nutritional profile of the bait, it is also highly regarded in the aquaculture industry as one of the greatest natural “flavours” and stimulates fish into a feeding frenzy. Whilst Krill may be the namesake of the range, this devastating boilie comprises of a staggering twenty-five different ingredients including a couple of little gems to which we attribute the baits immeasurable success. As much as we love the open and honest approach… we’ve got to have the odd little secret!
