And matching bigger wafters to go with them!
The bream are ravenous at my lake this year and anything 20mm or under gets snaffled pretty quickly.

Rolled on 15mm rollers but can vary in size slightly for various reasons.
I’ll measure a few of this weeks bait but yes our three sizes are 12/15/20mm for now
Might do bigger baits soon.
God bless the herb, still struggling to keep it in stock!!

They don't do 18mm mate, they are 20mm. I just bought some and they don't fit in my son's 20mm throwing stick, but fortunately they fit in my 22mm stick.

Thanks Gav, ive been super impressed with the Herb. Its getting me bites during the tougher hot weather sessions when the majority are struggling. The home made wafters form the paste kit are doing the bites in the last two sessions to 31lb 8oz.
Quick question are the 15mm herb rolled on 14mm tables. They seem slightly smaller than other 15mm baits i have? I might order 18,s next time as the silvers are a pain on the lake im fishing.

All of the three basemixs will roll fine on a table.
Tricknut would be the more awkward but I have never had any failures of note on a table.
Having the option to make a bigger, harder, odd shaped bait is nice touch and not difficult to do!
Glad the process went well for you Ian and I know they will bring you a few extra bites

In the meantime You can buy the paste kit and roll your own. Ive just made some large hard hookers. It rolls beautifully, not one bit of stickiness on the tables. I do lightly oil the tables with hemp oil.
Thats with 50ml herb liquid in and 10g egg alb. In a 1 large egg mix
They have come out superbly. .

They all got there (I think 😂 
Obscene amounts of bait left us this week!

Alright fella! Yes mate we will certainly be doing them in the future. We have quite a few changes coming but just need to catch up a bit.
I like a bigger bait and all the customers who fish in Europe want to have access to bigger baits so I’m sure we will get round to it.

Hey Gav, hope you’re keeping well mate, any plans on rolling larger baits ? I’d love some 22 or 24mm herb 🙏
Catch you up the big pit sometime this summer!
Cheers, Leigh

Morning lads
Hope all is well and the fishing has been good. The spring was a weird one with weeks and weeks of high pressure and frosts each morning and then the sun came out and the carp spawned! We haven’t had any rain of note since late Feb which is also a bit odd.
I haven’t been on here as it’s been a bit chaotic since January and we have lots going as usual. We have a few new things in the pipeline and those fruitella pop ups sold out within days! Who knew that purple was a popular colour 😂
They do smell good though!
Even I have been catching a few carp this spring from a couple of new venues so it must be clubbing season😂😂😂😂
