Sticky Baits Manilla Pellets – 2.3mm: The Ultimate Nut-Based Attraction

When the water temperatures drop or when you’re fishing a venue where nut-based baits reign supreme, there is nothing quite like the Manilla range. At Gerry’s Fishing, we’ve seen the devastating effectiveness of this range firsthand. The Sticky Baits Manilla Pellets in the 2.3mm size are built using a complex two-stage coating process, ensuring that every grain is saturated with high-grade powdered and liquid attractors.

Unlike fishmeal-heavy pellets, Manilla is based around a refined peanut protein and high levels of soluble milk proteins. This creates a unique, creamy profile that is incredibly digestible and attractive to carp year-round. As soon as these pellets hit the water, the outer coating begins to break down, releasing a dense, white cloud that hugs the lake bed, while the liquid sugars and Madagascan vanilla extract create a scent trail that is practically irresistible.

Where to Use Sticky Baits 2.3mm Manilla Pellets

Winter and Spring Sessions: Manilla is widely regarded as one of the best cold-water baits ever created. The 2.3mm pellets release their milk proteins even in the freezing depths, providing a signal that fish can easily track when their metabolism is slow.
Solid PVA Bag Tactics: The small 2.3mm diameter allows you to pack a solid bag incredibly tight. This ensures your rig lands perfectly and is surrounded by a concentrated pile of creamy, nutty goodness the moment the bag melts.
Method Feeder Customization: By adding a splash of Manilla Glug or water, these pellets become sticky enough to mold around a Method or Hybrid feeder. They offer a much higher food value than standard groundbait, keeping fish grazing on your spot for longer.
Cloudy Spod Mixes: Add these to a mix of hemp and Manilla boilie crumb. The milk proteins in the pellets will “cloud” the water column, creating a visual and olfactory signal that draws fish down from the surface.

Pro Tip from the Gerry’s Team

The “Sweet and Salty” Boost: For a truly elite edge, try adding a dusting of fine sea salt to your Manilla pellets 24 hours before your session. The salt reacts with the sugars and the Madagascan vanilla in the coating, pulling the attractors even deeper into the pellet. Pair this with a Manilla Wafter on the hook, and you have a high-leakage trap that carp simply cannot ignore.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use peanut-based pellets instead of fishmeal?

On many heavily pressured waters, fish can become wary of high-oil fishmeal baits. Peanut protein offers a different nutritional profile that carp often find easier to digest, particularly in colder water. The creamy, sweet scent of Manilla provides a “comfort food” signal that works when other baits fail.

How do these pellets behave in the water?

The 2.3mm Manilla pellets are designed to break down steadily. The outer layers “wash off” almost immediately to create a cloud of milk proteins, while the core stays solid for longer to provide a physical food source. This ensures you have both instant and sustained attraction.

Can I use these on rivers?

Yes! While famous for carp fishing, these pellets are an incredible bait for Barbel and Chub, especially on rivers where sweet, nutty flavors have a proven track record. The dense cloud they release is excellent for drawing fish from downstream.

Are they bird-safe?

Absolutely. Like all Sticky Baits products, the Manilla range is formulated with high-quality, sustainable ingredients that are beneficial for the long-term health of the fish and the local ecosystem.
