In reply to Post #517 Errr... yes, that right. I’m sure it’s a very good 50/50 mix, but I’d expect MUCH better results with a cheap/simple fishmeal mix than a cheap/simple carbohydrate mix.

In reply to Post #516 Brilliant thanks.
Also in reply to the above post about quality baits. That stuffs relatively cheap right?? So say a kilo of the 50/50 plus eggs , oil and a flavour then im in business right???

In reply to Post #515 50% fishmeal
40% nectablend/red factor/megablend ...or even even semolina
10% calf milk replacer or dried milk powder
Oil/flavour optional
Put it in the right place at the right time and a carp will happily eat this. If you want to play, you can add seaweed meal, yeast, shrimp paste, etc, etc...

In reply to Post #514 Ive got ccmoore live system base mix and ive been rolling that myself. But want to start with something simple from scratch.

In reply to Post #512 If you don't know what some of the ingredients are then I suggest you buy a ready made base mix then roll it yourself. Something like Patsull Park base mix by Quality baits would be a good start point. It's also got krill in it.

Hey guys. New here and this is my first post. Me and a friend want to bring our bait costs down as much as possible. So i made the first move by using the ccmoore bait packs. Which has got me down to around 5.40 a kilo.
So my question is. As a newbie to bait rolling whats simple and cost effective for me to start on?
Ive read 90% of the posts and theres ingredients ive never heard of!
I thought it was simple like 2 or 3 dry ingredients plus flavour plus eggs and oil job done!
Look forward to your replies..
Keep rolling and tight lines!

In reply to Post #509 If you want to get the price down more then you need to factor in postage. BAF's CLO for example is a bit more expensive than the Ccmoore one (it's far superior too in my opinion) but buying it from BAF along with the other bits would bring the cost down as there's not a second lot of postage. Ccmoore would charge you £9.50 for the postage on your vanilla meal and clo.
Unless you're collecting of course in which case I'd still get the BAF clo as it's much better.
The BAF csl is very active, you'll be absolutely fine with that.

In reply to Post #77 Hi guys,
Has anyone found a good rolling company that will roll BM1? I know it sounds lazy but with other commitments my fishing time is too short to spend it rolling bait. I’m just a little nervous that some bait rollers might substitute cheaper materials for those in BM1. Any recommendations much appreciated.

In reply to Post #508
 molecular weight of aluminium hydroxide
well i've done another table with your suggestions smurf
the final price per kg looks very appealing no factoring the eggs in which i can imagine will drop the price per kg abit also?
The corn steep liquor is a few pounds cheaper from BAF than CC Moore, they both say there active is there any difference between them or im i fine going with BAF?

In reply to Post #506 Not sure that level of GLM is worth the effort (some use up to 10%) and I never tried with a level lower than 2.5% and at that level it was really tailing off in any noticeable affect.
Personally I still quite like this mix but swap half the Maize Protein meal for Vanilla Extract meal (which some hate but the carp love it) and then add 2% Spirulina and 1% Betaine and a little (10-20ml per kg of dry mix) CSL liquid when mixing

In reply to Post #506 Just try making it as it is without adding anything apart from maybe some oil, you'll be pleasantly surprised

In reply to Post #77 Trying to put together a recipe for next year, any advice?
30% LT94 fishmeal
15% Maize Protein Meal 60% (supergold 60)
8% Robin Red
5% Meggablend
10% Semolina
10% Soya flour (heat treated)
8.5% pre-digested fishmeal
8.5% Calf or lambs milk powder such as Vitamelo
5% Equivite? Is there anything similar on ccmoore I can use instead of this?
Thanks
