anyone used new sonubaits chhesey/garlic pellets yet? look and smell ok but there is a yellow dye that is hard to remove from your hands.would recommend using latex gloves.i wonder if they did any field research on these baits.
 
They don't seem to use stable dyes in their soft pellets.
I remember the first time l used their soft halibut hookers they turned a bright blue colour after they had been in the water...put me off using them.
 
Hummm....sounds like the name 'Sonubaits' was possibly derived from the fact that every time you use them the die 'sonyu hands. Sorry...that's even worse than my usual rubbish :D

Cheers, Dave.
 
Are you talking about the hook able pellets? If so they've brought me a bite when all else has failed and this season are going to be one of my main hookbaits.
 
I have used them, and yep the dye gets all over your hands, they were recommended to me by a guy who had a load of barbs with them on the Wye, in conjuction with the sonubaits method mix, fiery hot in the feeder. They are dumbell shaped so good for banding. If they are as good as the original hookers they will do for me.
