Product Information

Full details

The Mainline Pro-Active Stick & Bag Mix is designed for dedicated carp anglers looking to maximize their attraction profile through active particle dispersion. Engineered with a specialized water-soluble catalyst system, this mix creates a dynamic plume of scent and particles throughout the water column, effectively drawing fish from multiple depths. While highly versatile for various baiting strategies, users should note that its high reactivity requires careful handling when used in humid conditions to prevent premature clumping.

FAQs

Can I add this to my existing groundbait?

Yes, it is highly effective as an additive to boost the attraction profile of standard groundbait or spod mixes.

Is this mix PVA friendly?

Yes, it is specifically designed for use with PVA sticks and bags.

Does this work in deep water?

Yes, the catalyst system is designed to release particles throughout the entire water column as it sinks, attracting fish at various depths.

How should I store the product?

Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the packaging is kept airtight to protect the water-soluble catalyst.

Can I add liquid boosters to the mix?

Yes, you can add liquids, but do so sparingly to maintain the dry, easy-to-use texture of the mix.

Troubleshooting

Mix is clumping in the bag

The mix has likely absorbed moisture. Store in an airtight container or a dry bag with silica gel packets.

PVA bag melting too fast

Ensure your hands are completely dry when handling the bag and mix, and avoid adding excessive water-based liquids to the dry mix.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent dispersion throughout the entire water column
  • Highly effective for creating localized high-attraction spots
  • Compatible with a wide range of PVA products
  • Proven formulation based on long-term bait development research

Cons

  • Requires dry storage to maintain flowable texture
  • Active particles may be prone to humidity-induced clumping
  • Can be used up quickly if not managed in large spod mixes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance, store the mix in a cool, dry environment. Always seal the bag tightly after use to prevent moisture from entering the packaging, which can trigger the water-soluble catalyst prematurely. If using in conjunction with other additives, introduce liquids sparingly to maintain the dry, friable consistency required for easy bag filling. When preparing PVA sticks, ensure the mix is compressed firmly to prevent the bag from bursting on impact, but avoid over-packing to allow the water-soluble agents to do their work effectively.
