This PVA mesh is a water-soluble net used for wrapping bait around the hook and rig before casting, suited to carp fishing with pellets, maggots, crushed bait or groundbait. It dissolves once in the water, releasing the bait around the hook so fish feed over the hookbait without feeling the tackle.
- Material: PVA, fully water soluble
- Micro mesh construction suited to small pellets, maggots, crushed or small particle baits and groundbait
- Supplied as 10 pieces per pack
- Available sizes: 18mm x 5m, 25mm x 5m, 37mm x 5m, 44mm x 5m (approximate)
- Two dissolve speeds: red mesh is slow soluble (around 45-90 seconds in test conditions of 30°C room/26°C water), blue mesh is fast soluble (around 5-8 seconds in the same conditions)
- Melting speed is affected by water temperature - in colder water the fast-soluble (blue) mesh is recommended as it may be harder to melt in low temperatures
- Can be cut to any length required
- Mesh is loaded with bait, attached to the hook and cast out; the net dissolves in water leaving the bait and hidden hook for the fish to take
