Don’t be fooled by first impressions, as this IS NOT PVA! It’s a new baiting system that utilises a mesh that doesn’t breakdown in water.
It was originally developed to prevent crayfish or other small ‘nuisance’ fish attacking your hookbait, but in fact offers a huge list of additional benefits that will appeal to all types of anglers: carp, match, predator and even sea anglers!
The mesh creates an almost invisible cage around your bait which stops small fish eating it, while still allowing the flavours to leak out into the water. It also means you can use baits on the hook that have previously been impossible including:
- Spod mix
- Mashed meat
- Pellet ball
- Paste
- Liquidised bread
- Sweetcorn ball
- Chopped worms/maggots
- Mashed fish for predators/sea species
It also allows you to fish pellets for long periods, without risk of breakdown, and it’s very effective when used with corn in the mesh and a piece of plastic corn as a hair-stop. Fox have even had their consultants use a mesh bag of hemp fished over hemp loosefeed with devastating results!
You load the Arma-Mesh exactly as you would load PVA, using the loading funnel supplied. To use the mesh Fox recommend you use a traditional hair rig approach. You can pass a baiting needle through the sack of bait and then slide it up a hair, securing it with a hair stop.
Available in wide(22mm) or narrow(14mm) systems (including funnel, plunger and 7m of mesh), or as 7m fine mesh refills.
