Anybody used Spa Baits. They have a couple of flavours I fancy trying but look quite expensive

Quite expensive? Bloody extortionate more like.. You will get a high quality bait from a reputable company for far less than they are charging

I was trying to be a little subtle with the question but agree £60-£70 more than I normally pay for 20kg

£230 plus £7.00 p&p for 20kg is more than a little bit expensive, extortionate more like, there's baits with proven catch results that are a £100 cheaper per 20kg!!

I don't think it's really necessary to knock them the way you are, it's f all to do with you what they price their products at and you most likely have no idea of the quality .

I don't know this company either btw..

Excuse me? The op mentioned the price and everyone else who has posted has agreed? Paying over £10 per kg on a 20kg order is madness,end of

No, you deride their product as 'dough balls' and label them as a company 'no one has ever heard of', both of which you just made up. Comments like yours are baseless. Granted their price seems higher than many, not disputing that, and as I said they can set their price where they think it works, time will tell whether have to re think in the future.

It's about time you consider what you say before contributing as you rarely have anything factual or interesting to add.

Boilies are little balls of dough that have been boiled. Nothing defamatory in that. It's what they are. It's a fact. Even my own home rolled one's. Just little balls of dough. And I really couldn't give a **** what you think, I'll post what I like, just the same as anyone has the right to.if you don't like it, don't read. It's very simple .

I'd expect a spa treatment with every 10kg for sure.

Never heard of them but Tony Mills joined them in 2017 and he has a proven track record (worked with Daz at Vision Baits and SBS before that). Still seem very pricey but that's down to the person buying if they think its worth the price or not.

Good luck to them for going against the grain. I'd be more worried about the 4 quid a kilo baits personally.

I may be prepared to pay over the normal rate for a bait that contained ingredients in quantities that justified that cost, and that also produced results with a correspondingly higher catch rate. However without the supplier telling you exactly what's in the bait then you can only judge by results. How much better than a. more regularly priced bait is this one?
Are you sure?
