Dead Baits

Baitbox Pike Baits Roach A major part of the diet of pike in most venues, it is no wonder that roach are such a popular bait with predator anglers. We freeze our roach immediately to keep them in super-fresh condition. Naturally quite buoyant we recommend testing roach in the margins before casting out to ensure that they sink. If they float simply pierce the swimbladder with a baiting needle and squeeze out the air until the bait just sinks. A slow sinking presentation really is ideal and will ensure that the bait sits on top of any weed and is very easy for the pike to pick up. Roach are also a great choice for the zander angler, and whilst smaller baits are more the norm, these large roach have accounted for some big zander over the years and will certainly sort out the bigger fish if you are being plagued by schoolies. *PHOTO IS ONLY FOR DEMO, SIZE AND QTY MAY DIFFER*

Baitbox Pike Baits Perch For some reason perch do not figure that highly on many anglers bait lists, but no body ever told the predators that, and this natural bait that is found in just about every venue makes up a large percentage of the diet of both pike and zander. Perch have a very tough skin that makes them very long-lasting and great value for money. This makes them ideal for trotting, long casting and other tactics that are generally hard on more delicate baits. One of our favourite tactics is to suspend a perch one to two feet off the lake bed on a float paternoster rig. This approach has accounted for some very big pike and zander for us. *PHOTO IS ONLY FOR DEMO, SIZE AND QTY MAY DIFFER*
