A brave new world
Spotted Fin are proving a disruptive force for change in the carp market, shaking up the old order along the way
The road to success in the UK carp market is littered with the sad remains of brands that never quite made it stick. So, it’s testament to the quality of the products that Spotted Fin launched with, and continues to develop, that it’s still going strong after launching just two years ago. Despite being a relative newcomer, Spotted Fin has been sweeping all before it, especially when it comes to bait! Of course, aligning themselves with noted bait mavericks like Frank Warwick can’t have hurt, and we’ve certainly noticed some interesting little products in the range of late! spottedfin.com
1. Zero Gravity Pop-Up Mix
A reliable airball pop-up mix that you can use to make your own special hookbaits. The mix is easy to roll and holds flavour combinations well. It’s available in 250g tubs (which contain preservative) and 1kg bags (which don’t). Choose from Standard, Fluoro Yellow or Fluoro Pink versions!
“GIMME”: £10.50
2. Tiger Nut Paste
Super-attractive paste that’s made with real, milled tiger nuts and peanut meals; two of the most effective carp baits ever! Spotted Fin has also added a blend of yeasts, milled particles, other nuts, sweet spices and other secret attractors
to make this paste one of the most instantly attractive baits around. Wrap your hookbaits or leads in it for extra
impact!
“GIMME”: £6.50
3. GO2 8mm Wafters
Tiny wafter hookbaits that promise to be outstanding solid bag hookbaits! They’re just the right size and buoyancy to be fished over the top of a bag mix, or even a handful of particles. They’re available in flavour and attractor combinations that have been designed by Frank Warwick, so you just know they’ll work. Choose from Miracle Berry, Classic Corn, Fruit Zing or Catalyst flavours.
“GIMME”: £2.99 per pot
4. Classic Corn Particle Syrup
A super-sweet liquid additive that will add depth to any bait. You can use it to glug your boilies, or mix with particles or pellets to give them extra oomph. Far from being a simple carrier with a flavour, Spotted Fin has developed a bottom-hugging liquid that releases attractors over time.
“GIMME”: £9.99 for 1 litre
