In reply to Post #896 Yes mate
I am pretty confident we can do it in shelf life. I will be running a few batches off next time I get chance

In reply to Post #894 Evening lads.
Squid samples have been popular. We are about to make another 150kg or so of it so we can keep spreading the bait around a bit further afield.
We have a few lads taking it into Europe in the next two weeks and more using it back here.
A wafter and a pop up are in Pidges hands now with all of the squid additives and basemix being used as per normal for us.
Be nice to see a few of them cast out matching the bait.
There is a huge downside…….the basemix stinks 😂😂 ruined my clothes, warehouse and anything it touched!
Herb was bad enough but I have grown to like it, this one is going to take some getting used too 😳
Crazy amount of carp being caught this week, 40s for fun!!

Am I correct in thinking there is a new (Squid) bait around the corner?

In reply to Post #892 Yeah they do,decisions decisions

In reply to Post #891 They just smell that damn good don't they. Difficult choice, and one i have no answers too lol. I will start on Herb and tricknut and just try to figure something out when the Squid releases. Good job we have a while to work it out as all of the baits smell good.

In reply to Post #879 Just took delivery of my Squid bait samples and I see what you mean.The thing is now do I drop Herb or Tricknut,I don't want three boilies but always like to have two different baits

In reply to Post #887 No I’m agreeing with you mate. I have found certain waters where they catch me the majority of my fish and yet others they can be useless. I was never a fan of pink hookbaits and really struggled on them until the squid was launched!
I often wonder if certain colours are flogged to death at venues and they become ones to avoid.
Last year I fished a fairly easy runs water and the pop ups caught a lot less than the food bait dark Wafters. The reason was simply that all spring they had been battered on bright pop ups and when I fished it in the summer, the baits on the deck were far more effective!
That’s common on busy venues

In reply to Post #887 For me it depends on the overall circumstance. Yellow does well through winter for me but I have caught on it in the summer when used fishing over particle. The dark I tend to use as a bottom bait (the hard hooker is such a durable hookbait) and I also have the 12mm pop up I use on snowmen during the warmer months if I want something a little more subtle than my typical yellow tippers. I think it can be very water dependent though as the lakes I fish I have never had a touch on the Krill & Cal yet I know plenty of people bag up on that bait. That's the great thing about fishing, you can rarely simply copy someone else and get the same results and you need to try a few things to work it out for yourself

In reply to Post #887 I find the yellow is the best winter and spring,I switch to the brown in the summer/autumn.I think they get battered on most waters with bright baits in the colder months and that switch can keep the bites coming.

In reply to Post #884 I was not knocking it gav , not at all mate far from it . I prob came across wrong .
Hand craft is my go 2 for baits , hence after talking you yestaday morning on pm im placing another order with you next week .
I was just saying the big c and squid for me have outfished it also herb in france last year and i have done me realy well on ur other baits .
Its prob just me using the little yellow sting wrong time of year or venues more suited to the others or me putting more time on others .
Do you find much diffrence catch rates in yellow or brown ? Mite chuck some brown on my order next week
For me bic c brown over white has done better but as said iv prob using wrong colers wtong times of year
Thanks
