I expect that prepared particle will be in the same category as boilies as they can be classified as animal feed items.

I can imagine some people now buying 100's of clear pots to put their boilies in and passing them off for pop ups

I was told that pots of hookers, popups etc are to classified as lures rather as a animal food item such as bags of boilies.
That's fine, but try explaining that to a French customs border guard who doen't speak or understand English. I can speak a bit of French but I very much doubt it is up to that sort of challenge!

IMO; they can mostly speak reasonable English and have always been decent to deal with, most of them think we are all just a bit mad..

Hey,
sorry for jumping on the thread, Myself and my partner are due to fish a lake in France in August (fingers crossed we can still go)
We understand that we cannot take bait over with us from the UK however does anyone have the most up to date correct information on whether we can take pop-ups - hard hookers, wafters etc with us. Including attractor liquids (providing they do not contain animal products or dairy)- ours is a nut syrup mix.
Partner will be using TigerNuts and from what we understand we have to have these ordered to the lake from within the EU but I may be wrong
Would really appreciate any clarification
include the isolation upon returning (we are both double vaccinated due to work requirements)

I'm due out in 5 weeks 🤞 but it's not looking good.
Where in France 🇫🇷 can I buy dry tiger nuts?
Any advice I'd be grateful.
Cheers Mike

Just picked up this posting, have edited out the name of the lake.
"Turner baits consultant Sam Doyle has just finished a weeks fishing on the mighty ???????? and opting to take the risk with his bait over the border...
Here's what Sam had to say
Highlights from a week at lake ???????.
Mixing the in-house particle with krill and crab (whole, crumbed, halved) and matching wafters over the top proved to be the winning formula.
If anyone wonders, we took about 100kg of bait over and there was no issue whatsoever.
Have a trip overseas booked? Sam's not the first to report taking his bait as normal without any issues, we don't encourage anyone to take the risk but with so many people asking about bait and the borders it's good to be able to answer the limbo of what has become of overseas fishing trips after brexit

Sorry to say this, but this sends out the wrong sort of message to anglers, forget the rules about essential travel which have been made by the UK and French Governments and also forget the regulations about taking baits to the EU. company

Wonder if turner baits will chip in for anglers fines for those who get caught, fined or have their bait confiscated? Or how about he gives you your bait for free, if you get it into France you pay on your return. If it gets confiscated you pay nothing.😂😂😂
