I don’t like Nutrabaits or him , it’s a long story going back to the eighties , I’ll leave it at that .

Probably based around poultry meal which is listed on the website I don’t see anything groundbreaking here Apparently Mark Holmes is behind it , so I’ll stay well clear ! 🤣

Just ordered some of this in liquid and powder form I’m wanting to use it in a stick mix for carp initially then barbel in the new season Sounds the biz but doesn’t everything these bait companies push ? 🤣

If the parcel is on a transit sized van , the driver won’t come down our lane as he can’t turn round , despite Amazon drivers coming down here every day ! I’ve known them to be travelling around with my parcel for three days , I once tracked them on the app and followed him till he stopped and...

Baitworks is one company that consistently comes up with great reviews, I’d use them myself but they use DPD as a carrier and they have a terrible reputation around here , almost as bad as Evrie! And I couldn’t risk putting an order in with frozen bait . So I’ll continue using West Yorkshire...

Are these any good for wading. ? I plan on doing a fair bit of trotting in the coming season , I lost my Wychwood net with a 36 inch bank stick attached last year and looking for some kind of replacement 14 ft Acolyte plus with pin

I don’t agree barbel or carp will eat anything you put in front of them , on some rare days maybe , but usually they’ll have a preference for certain baits on certain days which is probably linked to time of year as well , ask any match man and the baits they use depends on time of year . And...

Voluntary? I mean we don’t eat them intentionally but as a side product from certain foods’

Think we should let the fish tell us . Wasn’t around at the time but Triggas initial release was nothing short of spectacular, ( but I witnessed BFM taking waters over ) nether BFM or Trigga have that same impact on lakes that have never seen those baits before . Both catch fish today but I...

Yes that initial base mix you gave I took to the Trent , fished with a mate in a double swim , from memory I had over 15 bites he had 2 or 3 , we even swapped sides and I still carried on catching ! It was as conclusive as you were ever going to get . What I had left I took on the Derwent and...

Well i went from averaging 5 barbel a year ( using off the shelf baits ) on the Yorkshire Derwent to 24 barbel in a season after I’d pre baited with an HNV. bait , I kept the bait going in on a regular basis , a fresh one egg mix per evening session, and whatever that was left got thrown in at...

JBs Taste F2 with Barbel Search 4 is a winning combination 0.5 mm per large egg

I’ve actually heard about this on the grapevine , don’t worry I’m not about to say anything on here or anywhere else for that matter . But looking forward to the catch report 👍

I have the Drennan one , use it on the Trent and carping , also have the Korum one for smaller rivers .

Apart from they turn themselves on all the time , despite mine being kept in a hard case Although the green light is a big plus , leave it on low and it keeps the rats away
