Sonu Baits - Drilled boilies



Drilled boilies have been developed to make hair rigging a boilie a quick and easy task. The kit is supplied with 2 Korum Quickstops on hook hairs, a Korum Quickstop Needle and enough boilies for a good session catching plenty of fish.

Often when putting a baiting needle through boilies they will split or fracture causing them to be weak and come off the hair. At sonubaits we have eliminated that problem by pre-drilling the boilies.

Costal catch report for May 2010

ALDEBURGH

Big cod are being caught on a regular basis at the popular mark known as the Dirty Wall, with the fish averaging 6lb although a few around the 10lb mark have been reported.
Tactics: Distance is essential at this venue and you’ll struggle to catch unless you can find the deeper water at 120yds. Lugworm or peeler crab on a single hook clipped-down pennel rig is recommended. Day or night isn’t making any difference, but you want to fish a spring tide on the flood.

Catching the Impossible to be screened in June

Hugh Miles and Martin Bowler have finally sealed a deal to get their critically-acclaimed Catching the Impossible series shown on terrestrial TV.

Channel 4 has bought the licence to the eight-part show, which follows AT columnist Martin and well-known actor Bernard Cribbins as they travel the country in pursuit of impossibly big fish.

Each of the hour-long programmes will go out at 7am on Sunday mornings starting from June 13 and, if enough viewers tune in, Channel 4 could re-run the series in a prime time slot at a later date.

“To have the opportunity to raise the profile of angling is terrific and right from the outset that was always the goal. The aim was to get on to terrestrial television and now we’ve got it, we need good audience figures.

If we do, it might encourage others to make fishing programmes for TV,” said Hugh.

“It’s been a long journey and we’ve had to jump through a lot of hoops along the way, but I never gave up. We got close with BBC4 and then ITV, before finally getting the okay from Channel 4. For a quiet and unfashionable sport like angling to make the schedules, where the main stars are the fish and the countryside, is amazing,” he added.

AT columnist Martin Bowler was equally excited by the news, insisting that getting on mainstream TV would be the highlight of an already exceptional angling career.
“The biggest ‘impossible’ wasn’t catching the fish, it was getting the programme on terrestrial.

“The main aim was always to showcase how special and amazing our fish and fisheries are and to share them with the wider public. Yes, it’s great news for the sport of angling, but personally I hope it proves even better news for the fish and goes some way to helping improve their protection.” Legendary TV personality Bernard Cribbins, who provided the commentary on Hugh’s earlier award-winning angling series A Passion For Angling, joined in the celebrations.

“It’s fantastic news. Fishing with Martin was a great experience and I was delighted to have the opportunity to work with Hugh again. I caught my best-ever pike, landed my biggest carp and got loads of stick for my ancient Mitchell 300s.”
