Sticky Baits Bloodworm 5kg
Price: £30.60 was £40.00

www.gooutdoors.co.uk

Sticky Baits Bloodworm has been overshadowed by The Krill in recent times, but it was Sticky's biggest bait originally. Now the bait is only available in a shelf-life as Sticky don’t feel freezing it has any impact on its quality or effectiveness. 

With a predominately fishmeal base mix, the bait also has high levels of real bloodworm, crustacean extracts, Robin Red and blood plasma to offer the fish something different that we know they love to eat. The bait is very subtle in smell, very different to the overpowering smells we are used to seeing in baits nowadays, it relies on natural stimulation by harnessing the carp’s natural food sources. 

The bait has a very rich red colour and can be used all-year-round due to its ingredients profile and solubility. The bait is lovely and soft out of the bag and doesn’t dry up either, making it great for multiple sessions. It truly is as good as any freezer bait.

Boilie sizes: 12mm, 16mm, 20mm (Freezer)

Pros

  • As good as a lot of freezer baits, if not better.
  • Great for longer sessions.

Cons

The baits are now also available in shelf-life, making them more accessible to anglers who don't have freezer space. A real warm weather winner!

Dynamite Baits The Source
Price: £12.99 (1kg) £47.99 (5kg)

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

One of the best selling boilies of all time in the UK and Europe, Dynamite's The Source boilies are an old classic that have caught the majority of the biggest fish in the country. The bait itself has its instantly recognisable smell, a beefy savoury flavour profile that you just know carp will love and they have proved it time and time again. The deep red colour comes from the inclusion of Haiths Robin Red, an incredible carp attractor that is often overlooked these days.

The first bait that Dynamite created in conjunction with Terry Hearn, you only have to look at the fish this bait has been responsible for to appreciate its quality. The Source has lots of familiar smells but none you can really put your finger on. A blend of spices, savoury flavours and fishmeal are present to create this classic. You would be hard pushed to find a carp angler that hasn't used or heard of this boilie.

Boilie sizes: 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm (Shelf-life). 15m, 18mm (Freezer)

Pros

  • A bait that has accounted for some of the most sought after fish in the country.

The best CC Moore boilie deals

A bait that catapulted CC Moore into a well-recognised and respected name in the carp fishing fraternity, CC Moore Live System is a bait that just seems to be able to get a bite, especially in the cooler months, when they are very hard to come by.

An instantly recognisable bait, with its pale colouration and very sweet aroma that you just can’t quite put your finger on, it represents a great choice when the carp you’re targeting prefer a sweeter bait. The base mix incorporates a lot of ingredients seldom used in UK bait production, with high inclusion rates of milk proteins, cream powders and yeast palatants, it really does offer the angler something very different in their armoury. 

Due to its profile of water-soluble attractors and low oil content, the bait works well in cold temperatures and doesn’t need applying for prolonged periods to establish it. If you’re looking for a new bait to use that will work instantly and isn’t fishmeal or nut dominated, Live System is a great choice. 

Boilie sizes: 10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 24mm (Freezer and Shelf-life) 10x15mm, 15x18mm dumbbells (Freezer and Shelf-life)

Pros

  • Great for use in cold water.
  • Smells incredible.

Cons

  • The sweetness makes it a favourite of species like bream and tench too.

CC Moore Pacific Tuna
Price: £9.99 (1kg) £46.99 (5kg) £84.99 (10kg)

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

CC Moore Pacific Tuna boilies are probably the most recognisable and most used bait that the manufacturer produces now, such is its effectiveness at catching carp. Pacific Tuna is a red fishmeal boilie, meaning its base mix is predominantly built on a strong fishmeal and Haiths Robin Red, both things carp just cant resist.

The bait has a very powerful fishy smell and upon breaking a boilie open, you can identify lots of particles in the bait that add to its effectiveness. The Pacific Tuna is rolled with an open texture to allow the quick release of its attractors into the water column, with the bait designed to breakdown as quickly as possible to prevent its superb feeding triggers being locked inside the bait, a common problem with boiled baits.

Boilie sizes: 10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 24mm (Freezer and Shelf-life) 10x15mm, 15x18mm dumbbells (Freezer and Shelf-life)

Pros

  • Really powerful fishy smell.
  • Quick breakdown helps release all the attraction.

Cons

  • Not the best winter bait.
Sizes:<br>Shelf life:10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 24mm<br>Freezer:10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 24mm<br>

When is Black Friday 2023

Black Friday 2023 falls on Friday, 24 November, but this year, the weeks leading up to it have been jam-packed with deals, too.

Don't forget to bookmark this page for all the shopping fun, and if you're searching for something else, take a look at Amazon's deal pages here, where you'll find amazing discounts all year long.

Are Black Friday deals on boilies worth it?

Boilies are subjected to sales throughout the year, with many boilies seeing discounts depending on the season and the type of angling they are designed for. However, Black Friday often sees even sharper discounts than you would usually see and it is often a blanket discount incorporating lots of flavours of boilies. So if you want the best price for a certain bait, it's well worth checking out the prices on Black Friday.

Boilies are one of the most commonly used baits, so choosing a quality one is always beneficial. Black Friday may enable you to buy boilies in bulk for much less than usual, so you can get all the bait you need for a season or pre-baiting campaign at a much more wallet friendly price.
