NUTRABAITS MIX

Base Mixes

Our fourteen base mixes have become household names in the world of carp fishing. From Romsey to Rome, Europe’s carp anglers have switched on to Nutrabaits. Starting with just two mixes, our range of fully researched products now encompasses every type of base mix you could wish for, from a pure milk protein mix to an irresistibly attractive hemp mix. Yes, Nutrabaits can provide you with a bait for all waters and all seasons.

There’s no secrecy either: all the ingredients are listed on the packaging and our unique production facilities ensure that the precise blend of ingredients that you bought last year will have exactly the same composition next.

Pro-val

Pro-Val is a full blown protein HNV bait that boasts year round pulling power and levels of digestibility that are rarely associated with a bait of this type.

Although originally developed as a carp bait, Pro-Val is also ideal - both as a boilie or paste - for a wide variety of other species including barbel, chub and tench.

This is a bait that can be use with virtually an type of attractor but we strongly recommend the addition of a liquid food and/or an essential oil or low level nature identical flavour.

The recipe includes; Whey protein concentrate, lactalbumen, milk protein powder, carbohydrate, wheat germ, wheaten flour and vitamins and minerals.

Blue Oyster

As is the case with all our mixes - the Blue Oyster base mix is blended in-house and includes the optimum level of the pungent Blue Oyster powder, a combination of milk and whey proteins, a small amount of high quality fishmeal, an assortment of bird food ingredients, coarse dried seaweed, wheat germ, fine ground maize meal and a hint of Betaine HCI.

For a bait that boasts such a relatively coarse finished texture you will find the Blue Oyster incredibly easy to roll and you will require approx 5 size 2 eggs to 500g of base mix. There is absolutely no need for excessive boiling times or additional hardeners.

Ener-vite

Even before Nutrabaits came on the scene the carp world was aware of the attractive properties of liver and spices but, until Ener-vite arrived, nobody had thought to combine the attractive food qualities of proteins, mixed seeds, carbohydrates and liver powder with the superb pulling power of Robin Red and other mixed spices. Ener-vite can be regarded as both a high energy, short term bait or as a long term one. When used with an elevated attractor level it will prove instant on any water.

Ener-vite has stood the test of time and many anglers who drifted away from it in the early nineties are now rediscovering how extraordinarily effective it can be. Use either on its own with the attractors of your choice, or mixed 50/50 with either Big Fish Mix or Trigga.

Ener-vite Gold

This is a natural progression from Ener-vite, being a full-blown birdfood mix containing a blend of some of the most successful and well proven birdfoods ever. Our aim was to create a high energy, high leakage bait with a swift digestibility factor that could create a long term food source when sensibly applied. That we have succeeded beyond our wildest dreams can be shown by the extraordinary results of Julian Cundiff who used an unchanged Ener-vite Gold recipe for five years.

One of the best attractor packages ever is Strawberry Nutrafruit and Cream Elite along with Bergamot Essential Oil, but any fruit/spice combination is likely to be equally successful on this highly versatile base mix.

The Big Fish Mix

You may not know it, but if you are a BFM user you owe a great big 'thank you' to well known big fish man Dave Moore. He is the guy who has made so many anglers' dreams come true, for it was Dave who developed this incredible mix for us.

Why is it so good? Put simply, this base mix is the optimum blend of highly digestible fishmeals, top quality milk proteins, Sluis CLO and Robin Red available. Thanks to Nutrapro and Nutralac it is a mix which rolls superbly well and boils hard in 75-90 seconds. You can enhance its attraction even more by adding 2-4g Green Lipped Mussel Extract, 2g Betaine and 15ml of Pure Salmon Oil to the eggs. All our flavours complement the Big Fish Mix superbly well but the two most outstanding attractor packages in recent years have been Cranberry Nutrafruit with Nutramino, and Salmon Elite, Caviar UTCS and Black Pepper Oil. Get on it. Make your day!

The Big Seed Mix

This is to birdfood mixes what BFM is to fishmeals: simply the best! As with Ener-vite Gold, this is a versatile bait with a high energy factor coupled with excellent digestibility. Thus it can be used both as a high attract bait or as a long term food bait. The blend of carefully selected seeds and proteins is boosted by the addition of top quality Kelp Powder which provides many essential key elements of nutrition and digestion.

As you'd expect from Nutrabaits, the mix rolls superbly and boils right through to a hard consistency within 90 seconds. We particularly recommend the use of BSM as an egg-based attractor paste to mould around hookbaits as, due to its coarse texture, attraction fairly floods out once in the water.

Top flavours are Cream Elite, the new Wonderfruit and the evergreen Strawberry Nutrafruit. Try adding a few drops of Bergamot Essential Oil as well.

The Four Seasons Mix

This base mix is Bill's baby and he's darned proud of it! The Four Seasons Mix is a supremely effective long term bait which, as its name suggests, works all year round. Though it contains a small amount of birdfood in the form of Robin Red and Sluis CLO, it goes a lot further down the road of digestion and nutrition than any ordinary birdfood.

The mix contains both kelp powder AND dried seaweed granules to add the key essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals, as well as the same human grade liver powder found in our other mixes. These are complemented with Nutragel, the highly effective gelling agent that reduces boiling time to 75 seconds, thus maintaining nutritional goodness in the bait.

We can thoroughly recommend any of our attractor packages with this mix but one that seems to work amazingly well year after year is Fruit Special. Alternatively, try Pineapple Nutrafruit in the winter as this is an excellent cold water attractor.

Trigga

We can justifiably claim that this ground-breaking Mix represents the future of carp baits, setting previously unobtainable levels of attraction, palatability and nutritional quality... in short Trigga is the Ultimate Food Source carp bait.

No additives are required apart from the suggested level of Liquid Trigga which has been specifically designed to complement this superb Base Mix.

Having said that, several of our fieldtesters have been playing around in recent months in an attempt to increase Trigga's attraction qualities still further, and results clearly indicate that, if you get the urge to tinker with the standard recipe, there's only really one way to go... Green Lipped Mussel Extract at up to 10g per 500g mix.

Like all baits that carry the Nutrabaits seal of approval, Trigga rolls supremely well and boils considerably harder than most other baits for a given cooking time.

Trigga Ice

The eagerly awaited 'Iced' version of the awesome Trigga Base Mix. To add to both the cold weather and short term attraction qualities we have added a high-tec blend of natural emulsifiers and powdered spice extracts, to the now familiar combination of Trigga powder, pre-digested marine meals, low fat oceanic proteins, milk and whey proteins and vitamins and minerals.

As with the original mix, no additional additives are required, apart from the dedicated 'Trigga Ice' liquid food source that has been specifically designed to complement this superb bait.

In common with all the base mixes that bear the Nutrabaits seal of approval, it goes without saying that Trigga Ice rolls exceptionally well and boils hard without any need for excessive cooking times.

3D

Short and long-term attraction, nutritional balance and a unique crunchy texture are all taken care of in this stunning combination of Salmon Protein Meal, Low Fat Oceanic Protein, Yeast Protein, Milk and Whey Protein, Crushed Hard and Soft Marine Shells, Sluis CLO, Mixed Mesh Dried Seaweed and Betaine HC1.

No additional additives are required apart from the suggested level of Liquid 3D, which has been specifically designed to be used in conjunction with this superb base mix.

DIY production really is simplicity itself. Break five eggs into a bowl, add the required level of Liquid 3D and then gradually add the required quantity of base mix until a satisfactory consistency is achieved.

Despite the amount of coarse and crunchy bits and pieces that are included in the mix, you will still find 3D very easy to roll and that the finished baits will boil hard without any need for excessive cooking times.

The Nutramix

When we were asked for a low cost mix that blended human food grade products together with selected low cost proteins, we thought long and hard before coming up with The Nutramix.

This is the mix for the guy who needs all the essential digestion and nutrition qualities for which we have become famous but at a budget price. Consequently, the Nutramix has no expensive milk proteins or complex fishmeals; what it DOES have is a blend of whey protein and maize meal which is very high in digestible cereal protein.

Since its release many anglers have told us that they often use Nutramix as part of a blend with other ingredients or mixes to give their bait that distinctive signal others may be lacking. Try adding 2oz of Robin Red to 14oz of The Nutramix for a very 'different' bait, or maybe mix it 50/50 with Fishfood Mix to spread the cost of the more expensive fishmeal base.

The 50/50 mix

The mix is made up with a blend of high quality human grade food ingredients that make it easy to roll, and it will boil hard in just 90 seconds. We particularly recommend The 50/50 Mix for foreign trips when you can make up a more individual bait to your own specific recipe rather than rely on ready-mades which are the first choice of many anglers fishing abroad. If you add our own shelf-life additive, Preservabait, then air dry the baits for two to three weeks, you will find The 50/50 Mix will air dry to a rock hard consistency that will defeat the most determined poisson chat or crayfish.

The 50/50 Mix represents amazing value for money, so much so that we are confident enough to sell it only in 2.5kg bags. Each bag is printed with complete mixing instructions along with Bill and Richard's favourite recipes.
