Vortex Baits

Ooh la la! Our good friend David Naylor sent us in this absolute unit of a French carp! This being his first French fish too, and what a benchmark he’s set now, as this C.K.O. muncher took the scales round to 54lb 12oz! What a result David, Magnifique! #carpfishing #ukcarp #carpfishinguk #vortexbaitsofficial #instafish

Good mate @nickincefishing picked up on the Ribble where he left off, with armfuls of Barbel! A lucky 7 fish gracing the net during a social with Jake, our Frankfurter Spice & Red Salmon Barrels providing the flavour! Awesome job Nick! #vortexbaitsofficial #riverribble #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Our mate Gary Hazell struck Yorkshire Gold with this stunning Barbel! The mighty C.K.O. Cocoons doing the business as usual! Lovely job Gary! #vortexbaitsofficial #riverangler #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Our good mate Paul Bowen has had a great start to the season, the Collingham stretch has been a challenge, but the rewards are there! This lovely 9lb 8oz rocket took a fancy to our 14mm Frankfurter Spice and Red Salmon Boosted Hook Pellets! Cracking job Paul! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

As always it’s great to see @potts_fishing_ out and about, and on the fish! This recent session saw Ian get a total of 11 barbel from the Trent, and as always put a variety of our bait products through their paces! Nicely done Ian! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Good afternoon all! Hope you’re all having a good weekend! It’s nice to just sit and have a minute, it’s been absolute chaos at our HQ, it’s been like last minute Christmas shopping, people have been buying up bait like it’s going out of fashion 😵‍💫 We’ve been so busy in fact that we’ve barely had time to catch up on catch reports – so buckle up we’ve got a load! Kicking off with @shaneworsley and some superb Trent action. Putting the usual 14mm C.K.O. Boosted Hook Pellets, wrapped in matching paste to the test, along with Harry’s Ultra Mix in PVA bags too. The prizes were brace of decent barbel and capped off with a stunning Chestnut Common Carp! A fantastic result Shane. #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

As is customary, after 16th June we like to unleash our tame Barbel Whisperer upon the Trent, where he can often be heard shrieking “My Precioussssss” whilst clutching a palmful of C.K.O. Boosted Cocoons! Smashing the start of the season in Middle Earth, better known as Bobs Island, this stunning selection of Barbel fell to our Hydroshrimp Cranberry Shellfish & C.K.O. Boosted Cocoons!! Nicely done as always treacle! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Now as you know, we take our bait making very seriously, and we believe that our Insecto-Morph is the absolute top of the tree in terms of ingredients. But, it’s always difficult to persuade someone of this. So confident was Nigel, that he donated a generous sample to angler, Mark, who was fishing a very tricky Notts pit. I think the pictures speak for themselves. This, seldom seen 40lb+ Common couldn’t resist the meticulously crafted Insecto-Morph! What a superb creature, incredible capture Mark! #carpfishing #ukcarp #carpfishinguk #vortexbaitsofficial #carp

The northern soul legend from the east coast, Stephen Dolby had a great start to the season! No less than 19 barbel hit the bank, keeping him swallow diving for the rods all through the night! 14mm Frankfurter Spice & Red Salmon Boosted Hook Pellets & T.H.C. Boilies doing the do as always! Nicely done Steve! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife
