Welcome to Custom Bait services website. Here you will find full information on our excellent range of bait products. All of our baits are produced to be of benefit to the fish. They are food baits and contain a full spread of proteins, carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, fats etc. Also all of the freezer baits are designed to work all year round, there is no need to winterise any of our baits.
Our aim here is to provide you with the best bait that is possible to produce. We have 35 years of bait making experience starting at humble trout pellet paste boilies right up to the range we have today. We concentrate on making our baits out of products and ingredients that the carp and other species really like. You wont find the latest android, warp drive bait here only products that are really proven carp catchers. All of our baits are designed here, we dont use consultants, the baits are mixed and rolled here, no outside bait rollers are used, our products are obtained from top sources in the animal and human food industry, the flavours that we use are designed and made for us by a top flavour company. Working as we do we have full control of our products , we would not have it any other way. Our baits are competitavly priced. They are not the cheapest because of the quality, but they are kept at a good price by cutting out unnecessary packaging etc and selling direct to you. Ask yourself if you are paying £4-£4.50 what is in the bait? Is it benefitting the fish? Will it catch when the water cools? If not then you are wasting your money.
Anyway have a browse of our site, we hope you like it. If you want a chat about any of our baits then feel free to give us a call.
Tight lines.

Our baits are formulated to improve the general health of the carp and are all true all year round baits,there is no need to change anything for the winter thus undoing all of your baiting through the warmer months.
Also all bait products that we produce are the result of thorough testing over a long period of time. You wont have heard of our small team of testers as they shun the limelight and do not like their faces in the press, but they are all highly successful anglers who report back on a weekly basis on the progress of the product they are testing. Products are tested on a variety of waters, hard, easy, big, small, deep, low stock etc until they are deemed ready for release. They are also tested all year round to make sure they are effective in cold temperatures as well, so you can be assured any product that you buy from us is the result of blood, sweat and tears!!!
Every order is freshly rolled for you and dispatched on a next day courier. Boilies are rolled on Shillam rollers using the freshest eggs possible from our local egg farm. We supply baits in 14, 16, 18, 20 and 25mm. 12mm is available from November to February. Choose a bait from below, fish well and apply the bait correctly and your catch rates can only improve.
RED BARON
5 star gourmet eating for carp! First formulated in 1992 Red Baron catches as many carp today as it did back then. Excellent in a vast range of waters, small lakes, large gravel pits, low stocked waters, French reservoirs and holiday venues, it just works anywhere from its first introduction.
Red Baron is a blend of milk products, fishmeals, birdfoods, liquid foods, vitamins and minerals and oils. It contains genuine Haiths Robin Red not beetroot colouring or red dye!! If you are looking for a bait to use and cannot make your mind up then this is the one. Get on the Baron and haul away!
CONTAINS:
rennet casein, lactalbumin, LT94 fishmeal, sardine and anchovey meal, salmon meal, Haiths robin red, yellow birdfood, calf gold milk powder, maize protein, blood cells, salmon oil, lo30 fish protein liquid and squid and plum flavour.
Other flavour combos to consider are frankfurter, spicey frankfurter, bacon grill and crab, salmon, or any of your favourites!
VIRGIN SECRET
Released in 2009 and the natural follow on from Red Baron. We have found over the years that a few natural products used at high levels can prove to be devastating. We have included them in this bait. Testing was carried out in 2007-8 to get these levels correct. When we achieved this, and applied the bait in generous amounts the carp were always on the lookout for the bait. Pre-baiting carried
out the day prior to fishing almost guaranteed results.
The flavour used in this bait is exclusive to us and is extremely effective.
It is an old stager but is mixed to our requirements. If you are a serious angler and want the best from your fishing then use this bait and you will not be disappointed.
rennet casein, lactalbumin, sardine and anchovy meal, salmon meal, herring meal, pre digested fishmeal, Haiths robin red, calf gold, yellow birdfood, glm, squid powder, liver powder, lo30, salmon oil, vitamins and minerals and our very exclusive peach and black pepper oil flavour.
MULTIMEAT
A lovely combination of various meat products, spices, fishmeals, milk proteins and birdfoods. Multimeat is different from the normal run of the mill fishmeals. It has a lovely spicey sausage aroma which the carp love and works brilliantly when applied in large amounts. It also is an excellent barbel and chub bait. Barbel to 18lb+ and chub to 7lb+ have been caught on multimeat. A little trick for barbel and chub is to use a 14mm boilie with a wrap of paste around it.
This allows a quicker release of attractors in flowing water.
rennet casein, lactalbumin, salmon meal, sardine and anchovet meal, lt94 fishmeal, pre digested fishmeal, calf gold milk powder, maize protein, yellow birdfood, blood cells, spicey beef powder, mixed spices, yeasts, vitamins and minerals, salmon oil and frankfurter flavour.
NUT MIX
We all know how carp love tiger nuts and peanuts but seeing how they are banned on various waters in 2004 we decided to incorporate them into a boilie. The carp absolutely love them especially in the depths of winter or high summer when they fancy a change from the fishmeals. Purposely made to break down slowly on the lake bed slowly releasing the attractors then leaving a nice pile of crushed tigers and ground peanuts.
A good tip here is to crush a dozen boilies in a Korda Krusha and make a stik out of them. Awesome attraction in your swim!
ground tiger nuts, roasted crushed peanuts, calf gold, maize protein, yellow birdfood, rennet casein, lactalbumin, tiger nut liquid, hemp oil, maple or creamy condensed milk flavours.
BAG AND STIK MIXES
We supply two excellent bag/stik mixes - fishy and nutty which will be all you'll require to dramatically increase the natural attraction around your hookbait. The Fishy one is perfect to use in combination with our boilie range in Red Baron, Virgin Secret and Multimeat, and the nutty one obviously with our Nut Mix bolie.
THE FISHY MIX CONTAINS:
crushed hemp, pre digested fishmeal, fishmeals, crushed birdfoods, marine extracts, meat products and calf gold.
THE NUTTY MIX CONTAINS:
ground tiger nuts, crushed peanuts, birdfoods, calf gold and cereal products.
The use of these mixes ensure that your hookbait is placed bang in the middle of a very attractive parcel of food. It is a great trick to use if the carp in your water are spooky of big beds of bait.
For best results always add the powder to the active liquid and mix until the correct consistency is achieved. This is a brilliant method to use in winter and early spring.
Active Bag/Stik dip.
A mixture of active compounds specially produced for use with our bag/stik mixes.
FENLAND SPICE SPECIALS
New for 2011, FENLAND SPICE SPECIALS. This exciting bait is our latest release and is the result of 3 years of testing on a tricky Fenland clay pit near Peterborough. As with all of our freezer baits it is a true all year round bait. We have been testing various spice products since the 1990's, the ones contained in this bait are the products that stood head and shoulders above the others, and they are the ones that have been used in the bait since the testing period started. We have also tested a new liquid food which is also included here at the optimum level. We wont waffle on about this bait but will say this is a very special product which can only improve your catch rate. GET ON IT!!
Also available matching pop ups, wafters, extra hard hookbaits, pellets, liquid food bait dip and stik mix!!
rennet casein, lactalbumin, salmon meal, LT94 fishmeal, herring meal, calf gold milk powder, Haiths robin red,

Good news!, Jez King bags the great Black Common from Bundys Pit Cambs, at a staggering 43lb 9oz, the capture of this elusive carp was on our fantastic Virgin Secret Peach and Pepper freezer baits with a few extra bits and pieces. An amazing result following a long baiting campaign on this pressured venue. This is the second capture of this fish on our baits. Congratulations to Jez.
Testing on our new bait is progressing well with 3 35+ commons reported in the last month. Plenty of other fish coming to our testers as well. Testing will continue and we will post further progress reports here.

I have been using custom baits from the start, i know that confidence plays a big part in the carp i fish for, and how i fish for them, custom has given me that edge on other anglers that i truly believe no other bait company could! Knowing that the quality is at the forefront of every bait that is delivered to my door, it gives me one less thing to worry about when i'm on the bank, i can simply concentrate on catching. And trust me"it catches" Take the worry out of your bait and get on the custom gear you will be asking yourself why you didnt do it sooner!
I started using Custom Baits excellent products in 2005. Since then my catch rate has dramatically improved both in fish size
and quantity. My UK and French personal bests have both been caught on Custom Baits freezer baits,33lb in the UK
and 45lb in France. I am very impressed with the bait, price and service. Oh and Mark is always on hand to give out tips
on his baits and any general carping stuff. TOP BAIT AND A TOP GEEZER!!!
Mark showed me a sample of his bait (the mighty Red Baron) and I was immediately impressed with it, and especially with him and his knowledge, enthusiasm and friendliness. I decided straight away to use his bait and, on the first outing with it, caught 12 carp in a weekend ( only managing 5 all the previous season!). I can honestly say that Mark's products are top quality and reliable and if you want anything special or slight changes he is only too willing and able to supply your every needs.
MARK'S TOP TIPS
POP UPS
A word on pop ups. We supply two types, cork granule and cork ball. Our cork ball pop ups are made exactly to match our freezer baits. The only difference being the addition of egg albumin to harden them. They can be pierced for short sessions though i really we would recommend tying them on with dental floss. This way they
will stay on the hair for 4-5 days. A little tip here, after you have tied your pop up on to your rig immerse if in lake water for a few minutes. This causes the pop up to swell a little and really grip the floss.
They both contain all of the liquids and extracts that our freezer baits contain. Try glugging them up in the pot with our matching bait dips for extra attraction.
AIR DRYING
We are often asked for advice on air drying bait. People seem to struggle with this area so here are a few tips on how to air dry bait correctly.
If you fish long sessions or holidays in this country or abroad one of the problems that can be encountered is keeping bait fresh. Bait can be prevented from going off by the correct use of air drying. What we are trying to achieve here is gentle drying of the bait by dehydration. In effect we are driving the moisture from the bait as this is the cause of bait going off. There are a few ways of achieving this. One is to plan in advance (always a good idea for anything to do with carp fishing!!) and dry your baits before you depart for your session. To do this simply obtain some of the cardboard salad trays available free from any large supermarket, put 4-5 kilos of boilies in each tray, keep shaking them around each day and in a few days depending on the temperature you should have perfectly dry baits. Transport them in air dry sacks or buckets, NOT PLASTIC BAGS.
You can also take them to the bank frozen and air dry them while you fish in air dry sacks or buckets. This is fine in good weather but a nightmare in the wet!!
Another way to preserve baits on a long session is to semi dry them and then glug them up with a liquid. This could be a specialised bait dip, molasses, csl liquid, lo30, or a light coating in salmon oil. You can also coat baits in salt or better still ask us to add a little salt at the rolling stage. This kind of cures the bait similar to the way a butcher cures meat. It is a short term way of preserving, ideal for what we want.
Practice with a few hundred boilies first to see how you get on. Remember thoroughly air dried bait will be a lot lighter than your normal baits. 10 kilos at the start will
give you 9 kilos when they are thoroughly dried. This is why some companies charge you for air drying!
