In a nutshell mate I've got old fat and bored with barbel, half the time I'm there I'm kipped out in the back of Mytinbivy as you well know. The rest of the time I'm drinking tea or up the pub.
Now give me a proper challenge like a Devonian tench and I can catch with the best of them.
Except for when I'm down the Maltings watching someone who should know better make a fool of himself and going home in a seperate taxi to his lovely wife.
they don't work for me, confidence, or the lack of.David, why don't you like them ?
are they not 21mm.., could always cut em down with a hot knife.Big lover of elips, but remember they were invented to feed salmonids (and not barbel), so what’s the preferred commercial fish farm pellet for feeding salmonids now, because I'd wager they will catch barbel in great numbers too?
Also another thumbs up for Hinders Mega Betains!
What is the general consensus about Hinders 'Barbel Blitz' products including the Ellipse pellets soaked in said flavour.
I was considering buying some but have held back cos I already have many dips/flavours which I could add to my pellets which I think would achieve the same result.
Any thoughts boys

I was in Hinders at the weekend and got myself some Elipse pellets soaked in 'Barbel Blitz'.. Spoke with Dan and his advice was not to use them a loose feed as in his words "if money is no object then do use them a loose feed but i only use them as hook baits"..
so got myself the 3.5kg of pellet combo and a pouch of 'Barbel Blitz' Elipse.. have used the normal Ellipse and pellet combo before and have had plenty of fish on them
Also as i was in there got some Elipse liquid no idea why s never used that before either
