Nice carp. Bit surprised to see the same photo posted on Facebook under Mirage Baits and A Bait. You covered the pop up, dip and freebies well, but I was disappointed that you haven't mentioned any particle or pellet providers, as then you could have had a famous five of bait companies with your pic. Still a hat trick is a decent effort...

If you trim them, make sure you take lumps of cork out, not boile. Otherwise they’ll get more buoyant

29+ just after dark. Scaley ones are the best….. On the S4 with a mild case of hat hair.

I’m not sure even a size 2 would balance them. I must’ve trimmed off more than half the bait and they were still pulling up a size 5 with a micro swivel. I’m wondering if I’ve been sent pop ups by accident

Quick question on delivery times, not that I’m in any rush but just wondered approx how long it takes once you’ve placed an order?
Thanks

You're right , I don't see a problem with uber buoyant hook baits. It just means you can use a bigger hook. If it's balanced a size 2 shouldn't be a problem. It's only in you're mind where it doesn't work.

Pull out lumps of cork, that’s where the bouyancy is.
Or use it to your advantage to use a bigger, heavier hook……

From my understanding the whole point of the curing process with the crushed cork baits is that it penetrates rather than coats. You should be fine cutting down a bit.
Another option could be low diameter bait drill and poke a bit of lead wire from your leadcore in.

Hi All - i have some of the GPB1's cork dust balanced baits, but theyre much to bouyant to be balanced out by my usual size. Any tips for the best way to balance them out - i dont really like cutting pieces off as all the coating is removed

Cheers, that's a good analogy. I didn't think there'd be any issue but just wanted another opinion.
