Sorry for the late reply Dekay. We are still away, we've been travelling about and I've been on a 'no fishing/work' chat ban for the past few days. We have all been there, women really don't like us talking about fishing on their time haha. They will come mate. Only after our expansion though. Larger round bottom baits are coming too in all variations.
Anyway, currently, I hate all of you reading this. You're all carp anglers. I have had to cut short our holiday by two weeks to return to the UK. It's likely your fault. Slow down buying the stuff ffs!
If I miss out anyones photo or get a name wrong i am sorry in advance.
FishOn Ricci, top one is the biggest fish in Welly known as 'Willow' at mid 50. Fizz S2 balanced over shops fermented particle & Krill crumb.
Josh with a Snaggy Pit mirror. GPB1 over Krill.
You may remember I posted John last week, he'd already had three sixty's in France. Well he ended up with 5 x 60lb+ for the week, up to a new PB of 69lb12oz. He also banked more than a dozen 50's. John has being going to France for many, many years. He's never experienced a trip like it. Incredibly, he only fished the days. Partied with his pals at night. That's the way to do it John! Original S2.
Forum member Andy, two 60's from Parco. Fizz S2 over K2 freezers.
Chris, two from Woolpack at the weekend, both on GPB1 balanced fished as singles. You can see which one was in the water for less than ten minutes by the colour of the hook bait.
Forum member Tony. 42lb+ & 37lb+, GPB1 over Bug freezers.
Stoke Carl with a beautiful estate lake 32+. GPB2.
Forum member Dean, some of the better ones he's had past week or two. ScopexPineapple S2
David with a big common. Hutchie S2 over Wraysbury MC Nut
Forum member Lee with a Lea valley common. Original S2
Jacko with that fish from the comments below, we all know it was caught on a Fizz S2 balanced, just feel sorry for the poor folks who need to show fish caught on our stuff, while implying something different to their poor gullible customers. The day I need to do that, I'll give up. Many of the largest bait firms in the UK need to do this. Prayers for them all.

Mark, any plans to ever do the S2 bottom bait barrels in the new special editions ?
Perfect solid bag hookbaits for me. I’m not keen on anything wafting around.

The bait certainly works...
I've not fished for over a week now which is odd for me, but I kinda lost my mojo a bit. I've been doing so well at the syndicate it all seemed a bit easy and I wanted more of a challenge...so I need to decide where to go next.
Anyhow, I can't fish for another week or so as I am off to Italy with the Mrs and friends for a break so decided to do a quick overnighter last night.
Copy/paste from my fishing log for last night...
20:00 16lb 10oz Common - TC1 wafter on multi rig
21:00 31lb 4oz Mirror (repeat capture, caught it on my last session 30 Sep) - TC1 wafter on multi rig
22:30 21lb 3oz Common - TC1 wafter on multi rig
23:00 18lb 12oz Mirror - GPB2 Cork Chip on Ronnie
01:00 21lb 10oz Mirror - TC1 wafter on multi rig
05:30 27lb 14oz Mirror - TC1 wafter on multi rig
I'm a little tired at work today!

Welcome to my world 😂
It’s not just them, it would seem to be pretty much ALL of them now except DNA. Nash Bait were doing same thing, with the same lad. They even tried to add a caveat to his contract earlier this year specifically about not mentioning us. He told them no chance. Imagine having to use fish to sell your bait, that you know were caught on another companies products? When Sticky do the same with Ricci’s & the rests fish, its so cringe. Everyone sensible knows what he catches them on. Thing is, so many others it has happened with, you lot don’t know. They rely on the masses not knowing. It’s morally, absolutely shocking. Some of the bait company adverts I’ve seen in 2025 selling masses of bait off results using our hook baits are just insane.
You will find so many great results for our customers on these threads (and not on these threads), selling tonnes of bait & hook baits for supposedly well respected bait firms, so very recently too! It’s totally misleading their own gullible customer base, who they must think very little of. It’s always gone on for us. In 2025 it’s got right out of hand though. It’s just going on constantly now. We should change our name to ‘Tiger Nut’. Just read the bait company blurb… If they are very carefully wording an advert in a way where they don’t mention their hook bait, which they flog…. You know that the company know full well that it was caught on someone eles product (normally ours), but they NEED to sell their wares off the back of that. What does that tell you about these companies bait though? 😂 Bait companies who get lauded constantly are doing it. Tells me personally that paying half of carp fishing to sell you lot a story is no longer enough to keep some of these firms afloat. Podcasts, underwater cameras for selling jank products, none of it is enough anymore.
Suppose all that above must mean that we are doing alright 🫣

All three shops will have the Fizz S2 back in stock next ten days or so. We currently only have pop ups done, completely sold out of balanced until I’m back from holiday. For pop ups WhatsApp message the work mobile with what you require, plus the full name which will be on the order. You will be told what to order from our website to cover the Fizz S2.

I used to use s2 years ago on chods now I'm on a water thit I think a single on a chod will be the way to go on my winter ticket how do I get my hands on a pot of fizz crushed corks? I've been out of the SHB world for a good few years just on the bottom baits but saw some fizz on the bank in the spring and they looked great, just ordered some scopex & pineapple for the meantime 😏

Bit of a shocker that tbh.
A - They haven't reported that it picked up a SHB hookbait.
B - They've reported it as a record at 39.6 when I took the photos of my mate with it last year at 39.8.
Poor show.
