🎣 EXCITING UPDATE 🎣
PRESS RELEASE
As some of you may already know, Coppermill Baits has officially sold its assets and base ingredients to a company based in Woburn. This wasn’t a decision taken lightly. After over 20 years of putting my heart and soul into the brand, it was vital that the next chapter would be written by a team genuinely committed to carrying things forward.
After extensive due diligence, I’m pleased to announce that PB Baits will be continuing the legacy.
They’ve made significant investments in upgrading the facilities, machinery, and branding — all with the aim of ensuring these trusted recipes continue catching carp across the UK for years to come.
Here’s what to expect:
• The iconic Valley Mix remains identical, with just one change — the plum flavour has been replaced with Squid & Octopus, and the mix has been renamed Ocean Blend.
• The Nut Mix remains untouched in recipe and will now be available as wafters, pop-ups, and hard hookers, all with a matching glug.
• Most excitingly, we’ve collaborated to develop a brand new, premium boilie:
Royal Red – a liver and green-lipped mussel bait designed with the carp’s complete dietary needs in mind.
Royal Red has been formulated to support:
• Growth & weight maintenance
• Immune system health
• Gut function
• Scale regrowth
• All-year-round digestibility
There’s currently nothing like it on the market. It’s been an absolute game-changer in testing, and I’m genuinely excited to see what the future holds for PB Baits. I’ll continue offering my support, input, and ideas as they grow.
The website launches Monday 28th July at 9AM, and for those nearby, you can also visit their shop in Woburn.
📍 Shop Address: 2 Park Street, Woburn, MK17 9PG

On a personal note, we’d all like to wish the team at PB Baits the best of luck on their exciting journey. These recipes are very special to me, take years to develop and hundreds of hours. When we were approached to sell the business, if I’d have had even 1% doubt that the recipes would be cheapened or corners cut, I would have politely declined. But straight away I knew all the hard work will be in safe hands, Jay and his team have years of big fish angling between them and share my beliefs that if you use the very best ingredients that will always put more fish on the bank. I’m really excited to see them take things to the next level, with the investment, premises and scaling that I could never have put in. Please take the time when they go live to look at their socials and website, and if your are anywhere near Woburn. Call in to their bait shop and maybe see how the magic happens. So it just leaves me to say thank you to all our customers over the years, for your support and your catch reports. Now head over to PB Baits and catch a whacker. See you on the bank sometime.
