Tried and tested

From Burghfield and Dinton to Linear’s Oxlease and Drayton Res., CC Moore’s awesome Odyssey XXX is the bait package which will see you to success regardless of where you’re angling this autumn

Stick Mix

This combines all of the Odyssey XXX products into one powerful concoction: the base mix, the boilie crumb, the ground pellet plus “other great bait ingredients” that CC Moore believes make this one of the most attractive mixes on the market.

Corkball Pop-Ups

We admit paying close to a tenner for some pop-ups could be seen as “pushing it”, but there’s no cork dust or granules here, just individually hand-rolled corkball pops. They use the same identical paste to that of the main boiled food, along with the finest corkballs available to result in an ultra buoyant hookbait.

Air Ball Pop-Ups

Ultra light, ultra buoyant, ultra durable and both colour- and attraction-match the freezer baits. Available in 10, 15, 18 and 24mm.

Concentrated Boilie Dip

We may only be able to aspire to be as good as Gaz Fareham, but we can now definitely use the same liquids as him. The Boilie Dip features the same attractors as what’s in the freezer baits and a winning edge is pouring it over crumbed baits before placing them inside a PVA bag.

Boiled food

Here’s the boring science bit: based on blend of milk proteins, hydrolysed fish proteins, birdfood, yeasts, low temperature and pre-digested fishmeals and the most amount of Green Lipped Mussel Extract (100g per kilo) in any freezer bait, the result is a bait which is getting on for almost a decade old now and yet the carp still absoloutely adore it. Now for the exciting bit: whether you’re fishing short sessions or embarking on a long-term campaign, you can rely on this to appeal to the requirements and appetite of the fish you are targeting. Job done as they say. Available in 10, 15, 18 and 24mm.

Hard hookbaits

Fight back against crayfish, nuisance fish and rock-hard waters where you could be leaving your baits in place for extremely long periods of time. With added egg and milk proteins, these hard hookers are not only very nutritious but bloody tough. Available in 10, 15, 18 and 24mm.
