    Anyone using milks this winter?

    The old Cotswold Baits were a very innovative and forward thinking company. A lot of it went over most peoples heads at the time but they provided some of the best base mixes, additives, and attractors on the market at that time. Even today the use of enzymes is still not fully understood within...

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    I think if we are talking short term then yes but I wouldn't want to freeze them long term.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    Was that meant to say "not referring to to your business in any way?". ;) It's ok I totally understand where your coming from Richard.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    I'm no bait bait buff but I know what the fish like and what catches. I don't sell shelf life baits as I feel the preservatives contained within them are not healthy for fish. My baits contain high levels of milk proteins and are best made up fresh for each session. None of my baits are...

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    The choice of boilie is completely up to the angler in question.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    Well that's just wrote off 99.9% of the boilies on the market then! There are very few bait company's around these days who, in my opinion, make anything close to a quality boilie. Certainly none of the big names are anywhere near.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    Who knows Chris but not something I've experimented with although I've used very high levels of attractors in small pop ups for chub with great success.

    Cassia or cinnamon essential oils are also very good! ;)

    Flavours and quantity for meat

    Pm for you Wayne.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    There is another train of thought concerning milk proteins and flavours - in Phil Smith and Stef Horak's book 'Magic Moments' there was a section by Ian Welch who used a milk protein bait (a modified version of Nutrabaits Hi-Nu-Val) as single baits with very high levels of attractors. If I...

    Flavours and quantity for meat

    Optispice. Best flavour I've ever used on meat for chub & barbel. Used to be sold by Tony Miles and Trefor West through their Action Baits company but now I have the recipe. A very strong garlic type flavour but with a subtle cinnamon back note.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    Milky and creamy flavours like Scopex and John Baker's Milky1 seem to compliment milk protein base mixes but I know that the late Tony Miles always used to use Ala Salar in his milk protein baits (JB Supermilk) on the Ouse when he was after barbel and chub.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    A 15lb 14oz barbel from a flooded Hampshire Avon caught by one of my field testers (Chris Thomson) on my Pro Gold mix. The bait has never been used on the river before.

    Anyone using milks this winter?

    I use my own milk protein based bait which I sell under my bait company (Total Chub Baits) and I have to say it has been a marked improvement over the standard baits I used to use. It works instantly without the need for pre-baiting and in all water conditions, summer or winter. However this...
