Lidl garlic sausage

[Derek Funcks]

A new Lidl has just opened close to where i live, i went in for a mooch as you do, and came across this, anyone tried it ? Is it any good ? A substitute for the good old garlic spam ? At £1.75 for a 400gram pack, seems good value.

They’ll bloody love it Derek. Get a great lump whopped out in a proper flood …… probably next season now

 

[Simon Archer]

They sell it in Home Bargains as well, at least they did in the Loughborough store. I bought some last year but haven't had chance to use it yet.

I used a mattessons product that was similar many years ago.

It emptied the B Avon.

 

[Paul Deans]

Iv'e been using it for chub over the past couple of weeks Derek, they hammer it!
It stays on the hook really well, not as pungent as the stinky garlic spam!
I also look forward to whacking a lump out for the barbel next season.

It's on my list

 

[Julian Marshall]

Works on the Swale! I even made up an old type sausage paste with it & found it worked very well as a big blob on the hook. It's pretty fatty so not as dense as bacon grill - bounces well along a swim on a weighted hook.

 

[Alan Palmer]

One huge disadvantage I can see with me using this as a bait is I doubt very much I could refrain from snacking on it mysel

Is this still available? Spam is getting more and more pricey, just looking for alternatives

Plenty of cheaper own brands, Plumrose, Morrison's their Bacon Grill is yummy, B&M, Lidl, also try the Polish section, garlic infused sausage is great, Barbel are not brand snobs.

 

[David Robson]

Must pop in to give this a try and check on the other stuff they have. Must check Aldi out too.

 

[Kevin Webb]

What’s the favoured method… hook straight in or on a hair?

 

[Neil Smart]

Hair rig tends to get the Chub nicking the bait they are very adept at doing that, straight on the hook is better if Chub are a bother. Trouble is with this meat can detatch on the cast, so using firmer meat is better. For big floods I thread a cube down the hook link and seat it on a big hook 4 or 6.

This is an excellent alternative to spam, its just as firm in texture:

My wife does a weekly home delivery shop with Sainsburys and saw the larger tins of Spam on offer, so she ordered me 2 tins. It was out of stock and they sent 5 small tins of Spam as a replacement. The price was £16, so she sent them back!
