For paid next day delivery order within the next- The Krill Active was formed in 2014, as a means to increase the attraction of the humble boilie during Sticky’s annual jaunts to Lac de St Cassien. It was kept under wraps for many years, with batches being rolled in secret until it was perfected and released as a product in 2020. Following its incredible impact over standard baits, we are delighted to introduce the new Krill Active Shelf-Life, which undergoes the same processes as the freezer version. Utilising special machinery, liquids are pumped into the bait, which is then combined with powders to create a durable, yet super soluble and attractive paste wrap. Once submerged in water, this outer coating breaks down slowly, releasing levels of attraction that far surpass that of a standard boilie. Thanks to our use of pure liquids, with high natural salt content, our Krill Active Shelf-Life boilies are as close to fresh as we can possibly make them, with minimal preservatives, while still retaining their useability and ease of storage with no need to freeze. They are the biggest step forward in off-the-shelf bait for decades! Our Active baits have out fished standard boilies on every instance, due to their abundance of ammino acids which create a natural feeding trigger for carp! Krill Active Shelf Life is available in 5kg bags, in sizes 12mm, 16mm, 20mm and 24mm. ACTIVE BOILIES TIPS/IMPORTANT INFORMATION Due to our complicated rolling process to bring you the best boilie on the market, we recommend adding only minimal liquids to this product. Adding too much will break down the coating and make the bait harder to use. We also recommend using it straight from the bag, or an airtight, sealed bucket. Do not air dry the baits, as this causes the coating to dry too quickly and can cause it to crumble.
