Product Information
Full details
The CC Moore Belachan Block is a specialized, fermented shrimp paste attractant designed for serious carp anglers looking to add a potent, natural edge to their bait presentations. This highly effective additive relies on its distinct, salty aroma and strong flavor profile to trigger feeding responses in carp, making it an excellent addition to boilie, spod, or stick mixes. While the block is incredibly versatile and powerful, it requires manual preparation as it must be grated before use, which may be inconvenient for those seeking instant, ready-to-use solutions.

FAQs
Can I use this with store-bought boilies?
Yes, you can grate it into a bag of boilies and shake well, though it is most effective when integrated into a mix or used with wet particles.
How much should I add to my mix?
We recommend using up to 75g of grated Belachan per 1kg of dry mix.
Is the scent too strong to handle?
The aroma is very powerful and characteristic of fermented shrimp. If you prefer to avoid the smell on your skin, consider wearing latex or vinyl gloves during prep.
Does it affect the shelf life of homemade boilies?
As a natural product, it doesn't significantly shorten shelf life, but ensure your boilies are dried properly after cooking.
Will this attract species other than carp?
While targeted at carp, the natural salt and protein profile is attractive to many freshwater species.
Troubleshooting
Paste is too hard to grate
If the block is too firm, place it in the freezer for 20-30 minutes before grating to ensure a cleaner, finer texture.
Difficulty cleaning grater
Soak the grater in warm soapy water for a few minutes and use a stiff brush to remove any residual paste from the holes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Belachan block is a natural food product, keep it stored in a cool, dry place when not in use. While it is highly compatible with nearly all dry mixes, ensure your bait rolling equipment is cleaned thoroughly after use, as the product is sticky and has a potent scent. When adding to stick mixes or spod mixes, ensure the grater is cleaned immediately after to prevent the paste from drying and hardening on the blades. Always wear gloves if you wish to avoid having the strong fermented shrimp smell on your hands for extended periods.
