try and get friendly with a farmer i get as much wheat, maize,barley and other particles as i want i work on the farm the only trouble with the maize is that you have to take it off the cob by hand which can take a bit of time but if its free then you cant complain really can you.

Ignore the prices on the Manor Farm site as the prices in the actual shop itself are average £5 a sack cheaper!!!! I went over there on Wednesday to pick up a couple of sacks of bait & ended up with the back of the Espace bottomed out & only spent £40!
As an example
20Kg Blue Ribbon Pidgeon Conditioner - Web price£13.60 - Shop price £8.60
20Kg Wheat - Web price £9.00 - Shop price £4.00
20Kg Maize - Web Price £11.90 - Shop price £6.90

Hi guys, I'm after some cheap tiger nuts, if there is such a thing? any ideas?
I've found a place near me that does Ewe Nuts as a substitute for pellets, for £4 per 25kg! Anyone know the base of Ewe Nuts? surely it isn't fishmeal?
Cheers

What do you mean by 'cheap' Tiger Nuts? They really only come into this country in any quantity for us fisherman and so there are no mass users like most food ingredients so the prices are generally fixed at about £40 a sack.
Some Ewe Nuts are based on Maize Gluten Feed which is made from Corn Steep Liquor
. Some are made with Maize Gluten Meal which IS NOT made from Corn Steep Liquor so try and find the former by reading the ingredients on the sack and you will be on to a good cheap attractor pellet

They are very popular in the health food shops & they order a lot more than the angling industry do.

(talking Tiger Nuts I presume and not Ewe Pellets)
Not around Tunbridge Wells they don't, they can get them but don't stock them unless things have changed in the last 12 months.
Having talked to the biggest growers in Spain last year they gave me a list of all the UK importers and the top 3 where all angling companies
Maybe you got your info from one of the other Tiger Nut growers in Spain as there are a lot as the Spainish eat shed loads of the things.
