Vortex Baits

As we always try to finish up with a special one, Dez Weldon, this is all yours! Now Dez is one of the best chaps you could wish to meet, he’s got a super sense of humour and is an all round top lad. He can also catch a fish or 2! He’s been trying for a good while now to break his Barbel PB, and he’s finally hammered it with this absolutely fun perfect 16lb 4oz Trent beast! An early morning wake up call from the bite alarm had Dez out of the sleeping bag and hanging on for dear life as this absolute unit gave a proper account of itself! The mighty C.K.O. Cocoons doing the business!! Massive congratulations Dez, very well deserved! Remember, not all baits are round! Think different, Cocoon for the win, hand rolled goodness! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Now, we absolutely love it when we get a catch report from the next generation, even more so when they get a new PB Our mate Paul Rudd was chuffed to bits to send in the report that his son Bradley was now firmly in club “15” with the capture of this 15lb 10oz tidal Trent beast! This one was also backed up with fish of 11lb 4oz and 10lb 2oz, our B.P.T. Boosted Hook Pellets doing the business! What an incredible result Bradley, many congratulations young man! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

It’s always great to get a report from our mate @stevemayangling and some more of his “golden” sessions! These are the culmination of a few sessions on the Don and also a mysterious small Notts River, with baits of Cheese & Garlic, Dark C.K.O. & standard C.K.O. Boosted Hook Pellets! Absolutely amazing Steve! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Good mate @jake.iley.catches had an absolutely class session on the prolific @bobs_island stretch of the Trent! The mission was to get his mate Luke his first Barbel, this was mission accomplished, massive well done Luke, now have a look at these that Jake managed! Our magical Dark C.K.O. Barrels doing the usual! Awesome result Jake! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Andy Martin had a successful trip to a local private water, and armed with some krill meal dusted C.K.O. Wafters, got amongst some superb sport! This brace of mirrors to 30lb being the best of a 4 fish hit! Magic result Andy! #carpfishing #ukcarp #carpfishinguk #vortexbaitsofficial #instafish

Good mate Andy Walton made a trip to the tidal Trent in search of gold, and donning his one off Burgundy Hoodie and Polo Shirt, struck it with this cracking missile! This stunner, all 15lb of her was also backed up with fish of 13lb 50z, 12lb 5oz & 11lb 2oz, the mighty C.K.O. doing the business! Nicely done Andy! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Our mate @liamnasa1412 popped down to see us and collect what can only be described as the mother of all orders, and so on the way back, felt it would be rude not to swing by the Trent for a few hours, followed by the Don! The usual Hot n Spicy Pepperoni Boosted Hook Pellets, with matching 6mm loose feed pellets in PVA bags doing the trick! Excellent result Liam! #vortexbaitsofficial #rivertrent #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife

Our man on the Severn @garym7 had his first overnighter on the Severn, and boy did he get some action!! A total of 7 Barbel to 12lb 8oz, and a similar number of Chub too, all falling for our Dark C.K.O. Cocoons! What a result Gary! #vortexbaitsofficial #riversevern #barbelfishing #angler #fishingislife
