Richworth Tutti's a great bait for me and badly missed  I caught my first 40lb plus in France from a tricky venue on this bait. Not discontinued as many alternatives available but none even close to the original

The fermented bloodworm was in a screw top tin. The bloodworm replication was in an aluminium flask type bottle, never rated that myself
The XS was a hell of a bait, I knew some who used it, average anglers started catching everything.

The flask is different gear, hydrolysed bloodworm compound if I recall, basically they left some bloodworm in water, had it analysed for what signals came off and them replicated it and bottled it.
This was a long time ago just as Eric’s angling bought them out.
The “Xs” green boilie was a crab and spirulina number Eric’s used to sell.
Sam ( current owners brother ) sponsored me in my second to last BYCAC as funds were tight and by far the best product of there’s I got my mits on was two hookbaits, a pastel orange peach and pepper and a red scopex and butyric one, ridiculously effective zig baits. Believe they were called aviators.
The flasked compound stuff for me I used to mix with the bloodworm pellet to form a very sticky mix ( it has blood powder within the pellet ) and Jim Shelley later called it tarmac I believe. Once it solidified you could put them in the casting ground bait pouches and send em to Mars!

A floating brown paste that you could shape to look like a stick: excellent for close range floater fishing. Might have been called driftwood; I don’t recall.

Ignore below post, open it immediately and down it in one, you sleep like a baby tonight and on your awakening will have transformed into an adonis with super powers.

My guess is that some sort of alien hybrid bloodworm has been created in there by now. You open that and it could be the end of mankind as we know it. God knows what that many years of fermentation has created. I strongly suspect that’s where covid came from.

Also forgot about the Sticky bloodworm - still have a 'silver flask' in the garage - do you think it will have improved with age? Daren't open the thing incase it explodes!
