Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers using the Sticky Baits Bloodworm range. It’s designed to complement the matching boilies, pellets and Active Mix, helping you build a consistent bloodworm-themed spread.
- Anglers fishing silty or pressured venues. The natural bloodworm angle and subtle lakebed cloud can add interest without relying only on a big artificial flavour hit.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers wanting a complete feed in one bottle. This is a liquid attractor, so you still need suitable boilies, pellets, particles or groundbait around it.
- Very minimalists who never use liquid bait additives. You can fish without it, and it brings extra bait preparation that won’t suit every simple margin or stalking approach.

Quick verdict
A cracking cloud-maker for bloodworm-minded anglers
Sticky Baits Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid is a versatile liquid attractor built around real, fresh bloodworm. It makes a hazy cloud close to the lakebed and works neatly with PVA mixes, bags and spod feed.
It won’t replace a proper feed strategy, but it can give your baited area a cheeky visual and soluble boost. A solid choice if you’re already using the Bloodworm range or want a natural-looking edge over a clean lakebed.

Real fresh bloodworm, useful soluble ingredients and practical resealable packaging make it a well-thought-out bait additive.
The hazy lakebed cloud and easy use across bags, PVA mixes and spods give it plenty of tactical flexibility.
It adds a natural food signal around the feed, though the result will depend on venue, water movement and how well the underlying bait suits the fish.
It can be mixed into several common bait formats with very little faff, provided you avoid over-wetting PVA.
A 1-litre pack offers useful mileage for regular bait prep, especially for anglers already using the matching Bloodworm range.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Sticky Baits Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid
Some liquids are all about shouting from the rooftops. Sticky Baits Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid takes a different route. It’s built around real, fresh bloodworm and aims to create a hazy little attraction cloud close to the lakebed. Properly interesting stuff when the carp are mooching about rather than charging round on the munch.
The basic idea is simple enough. Add the liquid to a PVA mix, bag mix or spod mix, get it on the spot, and let the soluble salts and sugars disperse around your feed. That cloud is meant to imitate a recently harvested bloodworm bed — a natural-looking signal rather than a bright, artificial blast of flavour.
That gives it a nice place in the tackle bag. You can use it with a small PVA bag for a tidy winter presentation, mix it through pellets when you’re fishing a little harder, or work it into a spod mix when you want the whole bed of feed to carry the same edge. Dead handy stuff when you’re changing tactics through a session.
It’s also designed to complement Sticky Baits’ Bloodworm boilies, pellets and Active Mix. That matters if you like keeping your bait programme nicely joined-up. Matching the liquid with the rest of the range gives you a consistent bloodworm theme, whether you’re fishing a single hookbait over a little bag or building a proper area of feed.
The real attraction here is the natural angle. Bloodworm is a familiar food item on plenty of carp waters, and the liquid is intended to suggest that food source has been disturbed on the bottom. It isn’t trying to turn your swim into a neon soup. The hazy effect is more subtle and should sit around the bait rather than just disappearing into the water column.
For PVA bags, you’ll want to keep things sensible. Use enough liquid to treat the contents and give them a bit of attraction, but don’t go mad and make the mix soggy. A neat little bag of pellets or crumb with a touch of Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid can be a cracking option over clean silt, choddy areas or when the fish are picking off small parcels of food.
In a spod mix, it makes more sense as part of the overall recipe than as the star of the show. Stir it through pellets, particles or Active Mix so the liquid coats the feed. That way, the cloud and smell are spread across the area. It’s a bit like seasoning the swim — useful, but you still need the proper meal underneath.
The liquid should be especially appealing when the water is cooler or the lake is seeing plenty of pressure. In those situations, a natural food signal can be more convincing than a heavy, sugary hit. That said, water movement, depth and the lakebed will all affect how obvious the cloud looks. Don’t expect the same hazy picture in every swim.
The 1-litre resealable carton/jerry can is a practical size for regular bait prep. There’s enough to use across bags, spod mixes and loose feed without treating every drop like liquid gold, while the resealable packaging keeps it easy to store between trips. Overall, this is a focused, versatile additive for anglers who like a natural bloodworm edge and want a bit more going on around the feed.

Our take
The angle
This isn’t just a thick, sweet-smelling glug for coating hookbaits. The idea is to imitate a recently harvested bloodworm bed, with the liquid dispersing around your feed and creating a hazy attraction zone.
That makes it especially interesting for cool-water fishing, pressured venues and situations where a subtle natural signal can be more useful than a loud, heavily flavoured bait cloud.
What you’re buying
A soluble bloodworm cloud for the lakebed
Sticky Baits Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid is made using real, fresh bloodworm and is intended to imitate a recently harvested bloodworm bed. Salts and sugars help it dissolve readily, while the liquid creates a hazy attraction cloud around your bait.
It’s not a soak designed only for hookbaits. The main uses are PVA mixes, bags and spod mixes, so you can build it into a small trap or a wider baited area. It also pairs naturally with Bloodworm boilies, pellets and Active Mix.
Worth knowing. Don’t confuse a cloudy liquid with a complete feeding plan. The cloud adds attraction, but your pellets, boilies, particles or groundbait still need to do the feeding job.
Best on the bank
A useful edge for natural-food situations
This is a good fit for carp anglers fishing pressured venues, cooler months or areas where bloodworm and other small natural food items are part of the carp’s normal menu. A little in a PVA bag can make a compact trap feel more alive without adding loads of feed.
For spod anglers, mix it through the feed rather than tipping it in one spot. With a margin or short-range approach, a small amount in a bag or pellet mix gives you a tidy, low-faff way to put the attraction right by the hookbait.
Worth knowing. Try it over a clean or lightly silty area first. The cloud is easier to make use of when your bait isn’t buried in a foot of soft muck.
Quick answers
How to get the best from it
Can it be used with PVA? Yes. It’s suitable for PVA mixes and bags. Treat the contents rather than soaking everything, and keep the mix free-flowing enough to load and cast properly.
Is it only for the Bloodworm range? No. It’s designed to complement the matching boilies, pellets and Active Mix, but the liquid can also be worked into suitable spod or PVA mixes built around other bait.
How much should you use? Start modestly and adjust to the mix. You want the feed coated and carrying the signal, not swimming in liquid. A tidy, consistent application is usually less faff than absolutely leathering the bait.
