I go back further than that , caught carp on cat food , par boiled potatoes etc Barbel baits back then was sausage meat mixed with breadcrumbs or rusk Started with Hutchys base mix , mingle fruit , black magic etc which were a pig to roll Baits that stand out for me are Geoff Kemps ...

I used SOLAR S&O back in the nineties and I see it’s making some sort of comeback despite it being unavailable in it’s original form any more It caught fish but it wasn’t a game changer like these companies are making out Just another marketing gimmick bait companies are using bringing old...

And to think Fred Wilton who came up with the original idea of replacing the fish’s natural food items with a HNV boilie did it way back in the early seventies, way ahead of his time

To start from scratch with your own base mix your just making life hard for yourself , if you want individuality just pick two or three flavours and blend them , maybe add some salmon oil or yeast extract , consult with John first though . Regarding prebaiting , I don’t think it’s necessary ...
