Ground bait Review - Bait-Tech Pro Natural Range

Well I have to admit to being pretty much unaware of Bait Tech before the start of this current river season and having pretty much exclusively used Dynamite baits ground bait for a good few years. Yes I had seen the name about but assumed it was just another supplier of Carp baits. Anyway having seen a couple of videos on YouTube while searching out info on The Great Ouse and Middle level main drain a certain Steve Cowley, AKA Steve's Fishing Channel kept referring to Pro natural ground bait.
This led me to look into Bait Tech and their product range, I read various articles and watched all of their YouTube output until I was fairly familiar with what I thought I could incorporate into my own fishing. 


 As I generally fish natural venues I was fairly confident that this range would meet my needs and i invested in a couple of bags of Pro Natural and Pro Natural Dark which I mainly used on the river Nene at Oundle. The early results where inconclusive as I was only really introducing a few balls to start the swim off and then pretty much loose feeding over the top for the remainder of the sessions but it seemed on par with other similar products. 
I then purchased a bag of the Pro Natural Bream as I was planning a trip to the Middle level which is full of Skimmers and Bream. I used a mix of Pro Natural Dark and Pro Natural  Bream to great effect introducing 5 medium sized balls containing Casters and Squatts at the start and topping up with a ball every few fish throughout the session. Things started pretty steadily but the session got better and better as it went on. In the end I had 35lb of skimmers up to 2lb and could have probably carried on for a good while longer.
A very positive session and my impression of Bait Tech was very favourable.
I have carried on using this range pretty much exclusively all season also incorporating Pro Natural Extra which is a stickier mix with good binding properties for when I am faced with deeper venues or stronger flows.


This range of Grounbaits mixes very easily and I have used it with varying amounts of water to achieve the perfect consistency for all of my needs.
I was pleased to learn of the recent introduction of the new Pro Natural Fine Lake Dark which will be ideal when a reduced feed content is needed in the winter/canals.
I currently sieve Pro Natural Dark for my canal fishing but find I am loosing a fair percentage in waste doing this so look forward to getting hold of some of this new mix real soon.


Apart from being a great product range that will cover all of your natural venue requirements it is also very cost effective to use. Each bag is 1.5kg and only currently cost £3.99  which equates to £2.66 per kg which is remarkable value for money.
I have use this range of Groundbait in many situation On rivers, Drains, Canals and Lakes. 
I have balled it, Cupped it and used in various feeders and can only praise the work that has gone into this very versatile range. If you have already used it I'm sure you will agree and if you haven't then give it a try.

Bait-Tech do a full range of other Groundbaits with many Fishmeal/ commercial  products that mix perfectly with the Pro Natural Range.



I would like to state that I am in no way connected to or sponsored by Bait-Tech and this review is based on my own personal use of this Product range.
