Taking Oily Crab to France

24/07/2006

Have just returning from France...

I sat on beautiful a water nearby Paris yet again got instant action from this top water. Its about 11 hectares and contains some beautiful carp. I have brought with me Ocean Fresh Oily Crab! I have been charmed very by the instant power of these boilies... up until now, before this trip unfortunately my largest carp was from this lake was 16.4kg UK36lb not using Ocean Fresh but another well known Dutch boilie. In last years trip, four day of fishing I landed 14 fish, smallest around the 8 kilos and the heaviest. Most were averaging at 20lb + fish. This time round I was heavily prepared with nothing else more than the Ocean Fresh No1 bait!

I am so satisfied with the proteins and that kind of affairs, but knowledge of success this boilie has! These boilie smells perfect and I’m confident the carp think the same... I come 4 to 6 times a year to this water and have found it not easy on standard cheap boilies. After a pleasant meeting with Leigh and his thoughts about carp fishing I prepared a return visit armed with Oily Crab 18mm boilies & 22mm pellets.... after a day I had a good proportion of the lakes residents in my swim and found it hard to land so many heavy he the burning sun. The boilies gave me results of 15 carp in four days. Just as many as the cheap boilies did but these fish were much heavier the average weight was 16kg UK35lb and the largest a new PB at 19.5kg UK42.9lb

This turn was much better... I put out a big bed of Oily Crab boilies and pellets and landed all carp with 100% PERFECT hook holds in the bottom lip these fish were hard on the feed I thought.... This was my first awareness of a bait producing a different method of the carp feeding even on other well known boilies I had never caught so many big carp and got strong hook holds like these ones.

"17.8kg UK 38.7lb"

I was shocked to learn that you can take a 100% natural food boilie to France and not need to freeze it, this was so handy with the hot temperatures. Leigh tells me this and I believe him, the word in Holland is positive about these baits being good for carp. They behave just like freezer baits but you don’t need to keep them fresh in a freezer. How cool is that! The carp are so in to feeding hard on the stuff they become less careful and take the bait aggressively. The Ocean Fresh boilie is seen like natural food.... My next trip stands planned for August, and will return once more to see what changes will come. Naturally goes the three fishing rods with the "Oily Crab" and a soaked Oily Crab catfish pellets….
