John Baker Base Mixes

The nutritional profile of John Baker's base mixes is the key to their success. Most of their recipes will provide fish with an all-in-one diet, and once made up into boilies or paste, they will not require pre baiting in order to be immediately effective. John invites you to take back control of your tactical approach by embracing his philosophy of excellence and innovation. Why follow the norm when you have the means to be different? Please take a few minutes to select a base mix that matches your expectations. All the base mix powders are hand made in small batches then freshly sealed in barrier bags. One of his recipes could make all the difference at your favourite venue…

BIO SHELLFISH

JB's flagship seafood based base mix recipe sets the highest standard of bait excellence, with that familiar ‘Bio’ smell that is a tell-tale reminder of this trusted and proven carp bait. Based on soluble hydrolysed fish protein, krill, pro biotic yeast, and micro-nutrients, it is effective with minimal use on the most challenging venues. Contains a broad spectrum of key HNV ingredients with a 35% protein content. ‘Bio’ is custom made regularly in the John Baker workshop, using HQ ultra fresh ingredients, to strict quality controls, it offers carp and barbel all season digestible diet. Recommended with JB flavour blend options: Ala Salar, Crab, Plum, Peach, Chicken Tikka, Hot Masala, Barbel Search4, The SIZZ, Shrimp Extract. *A small amount of Salmon Oil is also of benefit and may help rolling when making any quantity.

TASTE F2

This outstanding recipe has evolved over a 25-year period and is designed for instant attraction via its inherent taste and HNV ingredients. Based on the concept of the 5th taste or ‘Umami’, the finished bait imparts that ‘must-have-another-one’ snack food concept. Its main draw is a blend of pro biotic yeast, special milk protein derivatives, liver, and key micro-nutrients. This recipe is a true alternative to standard fishmeal or seafood type recipes with a proven track record. Those anglers who have used it will contest that TASTE F2 often tempts larger and rarely caught specimens – even on the most pressured venues. Highly recommended as a specialist carp and barbel bait with options of the following JB flavour combinations: Roast Chicken, Ala Salar, Barbel Search4, The SIZZ, Chicken Tikka, Cheese, TM1, Milky1, Maple, Frost & Flood and Liquid Yeast Complex.

MILK & HONEY

A new and improved version of the Milk & Honey classic recipe. Now includes a blend of four food grade nut meals, with honey enriched bird food, fine seeds, and selected milk protein. Very effective as a year-round HNV bait through all seasons. High in vitamins, and minerals, this unusual base mix recipe has a nutty smell and unique taste profile, it’s a bit like a snack bar! The protein content is around 35% with 8% oil. ‘Milk & Honey Nut’ produces firm boilies with short cooking times: Typically: 50-60 seconds for 16mm boilies. Also makes a soft holding paste which gives-off a milky residue in water. An effective bait for carp, barbel and tench, it requires no other additives or sweeteners. Recommended for use with the following JB flavours, and flavour blends, at low dose levels: Milky1, Toppex, Maple, TM1, Cream, Cream Caramel, Peach, Plum, Bunspice, Mandarin Oil, Fruit Boost, Caramel Banana.
