pre drilled halibuts

Hi Derek, there are a lot of bagged alternatives available that work out a lot cheaper at the moment.

Just a small tip, anyone using stops when using pre-drilled it's always worth a dab of superglue on the stop to prevent the bait slipping off when it melts inside, more so with a bit more warmer water than currently!!.
 
Hi Graham, do any of the mainstream suppliers do a larger bag of mixed size pre drilled ? i realise you could buy several bags of different sizes, and take a few out of each bag, which is ok when your fishing regulary, Just thought these tubs would be handy to keep in the boot of the car, with a bit of tackle, for those short unexpected opertune moments. I thought £1.50 was quite reasonable. :)

Hi Derek, yes good points re oportune moments.

They work out twice as expensive gram for gram (even with offer) as buying 4 differing bags of drilled pellets however.

If I am on a smaller river I tend to take a few mixed in a washed out butter tub.
