We supply 100% natural snail baits for coarse fishing across the UK. We have been farming snails in the heart of Dorset since 2006 and are the largest supplier of fresh snails to chefs in fine dining eateries across the UK.

Since the pandemic we’ve had a bit more time on our hands, so we had the idea to develop a range of products for coarse fishermen. Dad and I use the snails regularly at Throop fisheries in Dorset, catching some specimen Chub and Barbel, so we thought why not make this available to everybody? Snails are a familiar and fundamental food source for the majority of course fish, they are found in their natural habitat and contain a high nutritional value which fish are instinctively drawn to. We now supply a range of meat and shell products which we are really excited about and have no doubts that they will catch some monster fish!

Meat products

Snail meat is full of protein, amino acids, healthy fats, calcium and many other vitamins and minerals which are highly attractive to carp, barbel, chub and many more course fish. All of this goodness is essential to healthy growth meaning they will actively seek it out.

Our meat products have been dehydrated for many hours and can be bought whole, chopped or powdered. To prevent floatation, the whole and chopped meat will rehydrate in a matter of minutes, tripling its original weight. Rehydration can be as elaborate as you like as the meat acts like a sponge, soaking up rock salt, colourings and flavourings extremely well.

Our powdered snail meat uses 4kg of fresh snail meat to produce just 1kg of powder, giving you 4 times the nutrients per weight! We have found the meat powder works really well when mixed with maggots and vamps up any ground bait mix.

The dehydrated snail meat must be stored in an air-tight container in a dry, cool environment, preferably indoors in the winter months as sheds and outbuildings can get damp during rainy seasons. They do not need to be refrigerated.

Shell products

The shell of a snail contains around 98% calcium which fish need for egg production plus fin, scale and bone development. The shells also provide a great crunch, which carp are able to crush with their strong pharyngeal teeth. Both of our shell products (crushed and powdered) are great used in a spod mix or any form of ground bait.

Alongside our pure meat and shell products, we have also developed a range of bait using a mix of the two, these include Snail Boilies, Dumbells, Pop ups, Wafters, Hard Hookers as well as Snail & Garlic Glug and Snail & Crab Glug.
