Built for the hook, not the spod
Hook baits do a different job to feed, so they're made differently - tougher, balanced to sit how you need them, and carrying more attractant than the bait around them.
My account
AccountDesigned for high-attract zig fishing, Leaky Zigs – Mystic Fruits are high-buoyancy 13mm zig hookbaits that hold your presentation in the water column while pumping out attraction.
These deep red or bright yellow hookbaits are loaded with fruity ester attractors and deliberately over-infused for intense leakage. From the moment they hit the water, they release a powerful fruity scent trail—ideal when you’re looking to tempt a reaction bite.
Their high buoyancy delivers a reliable zig presentation, even on longer hooklinks. Combined with their intense leakage, this makes them a great option for cold-water sessions, pressured venues or situations where carp are holding mid-water and ignoring subtler hookbaits.
Warning: These really are leaky. Handle with care!
13mm zig hookbaits: High buoyancy for a consistent presentation.

Fruity ester attractors: Heavily infused with Mystic Fruits flavour.

When subtle isn’t enough—leak it out.

From balance and buoyancy through to flavour matching - see what goes into every wafter, pop-up and hard hooker
Hook baits do a different job to feed, so they're made differently - tougher, balanced to sit how you need them, and carrying more attractant than the bait around them.
Match The Hatch pop-ups and wafters carry the OG Fish and OG Fruit & Nut profiles, so the hook bait reads as part of the free offerings rather than the odd one out.
Pop-up, wafter, bottom bait or hard hooker - pick the buoyancy to suit the lake bed and the rig, from sat proud over silt to pinned flat on gravel.
Supercharged Hard Hookers hold up through nuisance fish and long waits, so you're not reeling in at first light to find a bare hook.
Every bait carries a heavy attract load that keeps working long after it's gone in — and takes a soak well if you want to push it further.
The choice is really about how the bait sits and how much it stands out. Pop-ups for silt, weed and chod rigs — up and visible. Wafters for a balanced bait that gets sucked in like a free offering. Bottom baits over a clean spot. Hard hookers for nuisance fish and long night waits.
Our best-selling combination — OG Fish on the deck, Magic Bean wafters on the hook and Monster Crab Flat Spot to pull them in. Build all three into a bundle and save against buying them separately.
