I was in Asda earlier and saw bottles of walnut and rapeseed oil. I thought that these may be worth a bash instead of paying the extortionate price for hemp oil.
Has anyone tried these at all?

Toasted Sesame Oil is what you want. 10-15ml/kg. And its cheap as chips.

I think I pay £16 per litre for hemp oil (Pegasus) - which is not that expensive, is it?
If it's hemp oil the fish want - then I like to use hemp oil.......

Good oil is £6 for 500ml. Not expensive in the greater scheme of things. And periodically its on special offer for £5.

Agree with Nellieman on the toasted sesame oil as it kicks off a right slick in comparison to, even the better, thicker hemp oils, though you'll find that Ian Russell and a few other swear by simply slugging hookbaits in standard sunflower oil! Now that's cheap as chips!

Ground nut oil is worth a go, it's from peanuts and everyone knows how much carp love a peanut

In reply to Post #9
Be careful with the nut oil as it goes solid in lower temps and more suited for summer use, sesame oil doesn't and it doesn't go rancid very quickly either.
If you fancy a glug its also very good for humans

I.dont glug baits in it or anything like that, it's pointless with oils. But putting it into baits is a different story....

I use the sunflower oil straight out of my deep fat frier when I drain it, that is not only as cheap as chips but even smells of chips.

Agree 100% TSO is one of the richest and most nutritious (for humans as well as carp) oils you can buy. I have always used it at 5ml/500g.

I meant take a glug yourself, drink it

Until you get drug tested, then you have to explain the presence of the drug in your system! Can make for some interesting discussions with management

Yeah I realised that as soon as I'd posted lol

In reply to Post #8
yeah ive seen pics of Ian Russell's code red hookbait pots filled to brim with sunflower oil......never drowned my hookbaits like that before - he certainly bags a few.

Ive used the Good Oil and Roasted Nut oils also - but mainly to coat the freebies etc
Certainly will be adding to my groundbait in the winter - lots of attraction with no food - just a hookbait....

A mate puts that on his floaters and says the carp love it

Oil definitely has its uses in baits , but as an attractant No .!

I got some hazelnut oil off the Web but not used it yet

They flex the price in line with diesel to stop peeps using it in road vehicles....

Another tax on society.

And it's only just starting, but it was nice to see a 2019 price. 4 euro's/liter is standard here now, so off to the uk to get me some oil

I'm visiting family in NZ at the moment and trudging around Countdown supermarket and saw avocado oil, read the description and it has a high heat point smelling it and tasting it I would think it has a place in bait/particles whether it's better than hemp oil I'm not sure but I suggest it's worth a try
