Sprats
Sprats are part of the herring family this bait is a very oily fish with plenty of natural attractants. *** OUT OF STOCK ***
Sprat Sprattus sprattus once a very popular bait with pike anglers has lost its appeal over the years due to new bait becoming available on the market but could give you an edge on those sea baits only waters.
Herring
Herring are very appealing due to their very oily flesh and silver appearance, a favourite amongst pike anglers for many years.
*** Medium Herring are 7/8″ this time round ***
Herring Clupea harengus – can be used as whole bait or cut in half. When cut and fished as a half bait head and tail, you are increasing your chances of catching, because the natural oil is able to escape into the water quicker. Gadda herring are sourced within UK waters and frozen instantly to maintain their silvery appearance, which is known to trigger a feeding response in pike.
