When Mark McKenna asked if I would come over to Baitcraft a fortnight ago I was more than a little excited. The amazing T1 boilie is now in its 6th year of doing some heavy damage on a whole host of venues both home and abroad and I believe it is reasonable to say has definately achieved near legendary status in the world of Carp fishing bait.
On my first meeting with Mark he strongly suggest that I try the Halo, the newest and greatest addition to the Baitcraft range and something he has put a big period of time, research and testing in to recently. If I'm truthful to start with I was a tiny hesitant as I had already made my mind up that I would be using the timeless T1 on my new water but when a person with the experience and understanding that Mark has insists the Halo is the best bait he has released to date I presumed it best to perk up and take notice, and I'm glad I did.
The Halo is based round the same HNV marine protein base mix that is found in all of Baitcrafts incredible range. As with all great bait masters Mark was pretty secretive about the remainder of the ingredients, but who can blame him? He probably did however assure me it was the one to be on and one of the most instant baits would ever use.
Putting these bold claims to the test I employed the Halo on a day session 2 days later and instant turned out to be an understatement! I managed 8 fish up to 28lb 12oz all before dark and I literally could not put enough in, the carp were on it all day long. My next visit was a short evening session and produced 4 fish up to 25lb 6oz and the third which was only a 4 hour session also produced four carp up to 28lb 15oz!
Even at this initial stage it is apparent to me that the Halo is a really special product indeed and is right up there with the legendary T1 boilies. As with all the other baits in the range the UK Tactical matching hook bait range is second to none providing toughened hook baits, wafters and ultra buoyant pop ups all in either 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 18mm or 'bones ' which are a very unique dumbbell type hook bait, while a matching hook bait dip and pellets complete the range perfectly.
The Halo smells fantastic, unlike any other carp bait which ive ever used. It's instant to say the least and if these early results are anything to go by its set to become another Baitcraft all time classic.
