The Attraction of Black Aniseed

Gold Medal Black Aniseed Mix is a versatile groundbait designed to darken your feed while introducing the distinctive aroma of aniseed.

Aniseed has long been used by coarse anglers as a flavouring, particularly when targeting roach, bream, carp and other coarse fish.

The dark colouring also makes this groundbait particularly useful when fishing clear water, shallow venues and pressured swims.

Why Use a Dark Groundbait?

Dark groundbaits are popular with match anglers because they can blend more naturally with the bottom of a river, canal or lake.

• Natural presentation: Dark feed can be less visually conspicuous against darker lakebeds.
• Useful in clear water: Particularly worth trying when fish are cautious.
• Distinctive aniseed aroma: Adds an additional flavour and scent to your feeding area.
• Versatile application: Suitable for rivers, canals and stillwaters.
• Flexible mixing: Can be used alone or combined with other groundbaits.

Depending on how it is mixed and introduced, Black Aniseed can also create a dark cloud of fine particles in the water.

How to Use Black Aniseed Mix

1. Prepare your groundbait: Add water gradually, stirring thoroughly to achieve an even consistency.
2. Allow it to absorb: Leave the mix for a few minutes, then check whether it needs a little more water.
3. For canals and stillwaters: Try a softer mix that breaks down readily on the bottom.
4. For river fishing: Adjust the moisture and firmness to suit the flow and feeding method.
5. For extra versatility: Blend Black Aniseed with another Gold Medal groundbait when you want to darken the mixture and add aniseed flavour.

CHAMPION’S TIP: In clear water, try feeding a small amount of dark groundbait first and observe the fish’s response before increasing the quantity.

Which Fish Is It Suitable For?

Black Aniseed Mix is worth trying for a variety of coarse fish, including:

• Roach: Particularly when a darker feeding area is preferred.
• Bream: Can be used in a groundbait mix to introduce aroma and colour.
• Carp: An alternative aromatic groundbait for mixed fisheries.
• Other coarse fish: Useful when experimenting with different feeding approaches.

It can be used as a complete groundbait or as an addition to other mixes in the Gold Medal range.
