This entry was posted on 7th July, 2020 by Anna Cooper

Chocolate Day is nothing short of a special tribute to mankind’s greatest culinary invention. Many of us anglers have a sweet tooth but did you know many fish like a sweet bait too? To celebrate World Chocolate Day, we thought we would put together a list of the best fishing baits with a chocolate or candy theme so you can head out to the bankside with a backpack full of amazing scents and flavours!

1) Korda Goo

Korda’s Carp Goo is ideal for creating a cloud of attraction around your hookbait, triggering fish to take notice. There are plenty of amazing flavours available that can accompany your chosen baits. For something sweet, why not try Korda Goo flavours like Power Smoke Chocolate Candy, Buttercorn Supreme or Sherbert Smoke. The sweetness of these flavours can be added to particle or tired bait to give them a sugary kick that is bound to boost your bait and bring fish to your swim.

2) Sonubaits Lava Rocks

Lava Rocks can totally transform a method feeder. This clever little addition is best used by shaking some Lava Rocks out into the base of a method mould; a little goes a long way, so a thin layer is fine. The crushed up bait comes in a few flavours but to match your chocolate needs you can get the Sonubait Lava Rocks in a Chocolate orange flavouring. Chocolate Orange is a great colour when fishing commercials, with the bright colour standing out well, and giving you the edge on pressured venues.

3) Ringers Chocolate Yellow 10mm Bandem/Boilies

These semi-buoyant boilies offer anglers a bait that moves naturally when fish are feeding in the area. This presentation is achieved through the bait using the weight of the hook as an anchor, to keep them close to the lake bed but still able to waft about when a fish is active over your baited spot. Not only do these bandem boilies come in a bring yellow colour for easy identification but boast the gorgeous chocolate aroma that almost smells good enough to eat! Best to save them for your catch.

4) Mainline Response Shelf Life Boilies

If you need a bait that offers superb carp catching on all types of waters, then these shelf boilies from Mainline may be the one for you! Made using purpose designed high leakage base mix as we all top quality flavours enhancers, attractors and additives, the Response range triggers feeding even in unfavourable conditions whilst promote excellent growth rates in all species. Not all your carp candy needs to be chocolate. These boilies offer sweet scents of Strawberry Zest and Tutti Frutti to keep the fish coming to your swim.

5) Sonubaits Chocolate Orange Method Mix 2kg

Designed with Method Feeder Fishing in mind, Sonubaits offer anglers this chocolate orange mix that sports a sticky texture that makes attaching it to a Method feeder simple. Whether you are casting 20m or 80m, the stickiness of the chocolate orange mix will help keep your mixed bait in your method feeder until it hits the water. The scent of this method mix is so amazing that is will hit you as soon as you open the bag! This is certainly a great bait both in smell, texture and fish catching abilities as the orange fleck in its colouring will help to attract the attention of fish in addition to its aroma.

6) Crafty Catcher Big Hit Boilies 1kg

The Crafty Catcher Big Hit Boilies now includes a Chocolate and Vanilla nut flavour that is suited to any angler. This boilie range is based on ground nut meals, bird foods and milk proteins which attracts larger amounts of fish. Chocolate and vanilla flavourings pair perfectly together to release a sweet scent into the columns and bring fish from the depths to your peg. The Crafty Catcher boilies come supplied in a re-sealable 1kg bag that helps to lock in the flavour between sessions.

7) Dynamite Baits White Chocolate & Coconut Cream Pop-Ups

Made from bird food, milk protein base mix with added white chocolate powder and ground coconut, the Dynamite Baits White Chocolate & Coconut Cream Pop-Ups offer anglers an all year round highly visible boilie. The White Chocolate and Coconut range is made using flavour technology taken from the ice cream industry to insure the water-soluble attractants leak from the boilies, even in the coldest conditions. This makes these pop-up boilies ideal for use all year round as well as its creamy aroma.

8) Mainline High Impact 1kg Shelf Life Boilies

Designed for the modern-day angler, the High Impact boilies from Mainline offer a complete food source bait of the highest calibre.

9) Sticky Baits Manilla Pellets

The Sticky Baits Manilla Pellets are constructed with a two-stage coating process where the method feeder pellets are continually loaded with layers of powdered and liquid attractors. The outer coating of the Manilla Pellets contains Sticky Bait’s exclusive peanut protein, as well as high levels of soluble milk that leave a dense cloud of attraction that hugs the lake bed. This liquid attractant is packed with tons of natural salts and sugars as well as Madagascan vanilla extract that will certainly grab any hungry carps attention for it, sweetness! These Manilla pellets are great for use in PVA bags, ground bait or spod mixes and can also be chopped up and balled up with the addition of a liquid, which makes them ideal for moulding around the hook.

10) Sonubaits Lava 50ml

Coming from the same range at the Sonubaits Lava Rocks, the Sonubait Lava offers a liquid attract to either increase attraction to your pellets, ground baits and boilies or to just add around your hookbait in the water. The Lava liquid is perfect on modern commercial venues where carp see a lot of bait, much of it very similar in scent, texture, and taste. Give them something different by adding the Chocolate Orange flavour or Berry Burst scent to boost attraction, compelling fish to try something new.
