When Cor de Man asked me 10 years ago to join the Richworth team I did not have to think twice. The use of this high quality bait really should help my carp fishing forward and believe me, it did! We recruted a team of talented dutch, belgian and french carp hunters to test the bait and participate at the big international carp meetings. I want to bring over my compliments to the Baker family who manage for so many years to consolidate this high quality and for building up the company to what it is today! Super!

People often think I earn my money in the angling business.....no way, I am a facilities manager of a scientific organisation.
A couple of years ago we baited up a big aerea on Lac du Der ( 4 football fields) After a couple of days fishing we had like 50 carp. 12 between 30 and 40 lbs, 8 between 40 and 45 lbs and 4 between 45 and 51 lbs. Fabulous..!
TIP 1: spread out your bait.
TIP 2: try long hairs ( 3-4 cm)
TIP 3: also long rigs ( 40-60 cm)
We just bought an old yacht of 7 metres. We will take this ship to a very big and difficult lake in the south of France and use it for fishing. We will be able to fish in areas you cannot reach from the bank.
