You'll get a load of smart arses going on about bakers/breadcrumb etc just because they've read stuff on the internet. I'm sure it's not a HNV bait by any means, but if you can get it at a decent price it will catch plenty of fish (like bread)

Would guess it's pretty similar to the Munch Baits stuff which I used over winter. A similar price too. It worked for me, it caught me fish and was cheap, I only needed 5Kg at a time so didn't have to buy loads to get it cheap. Mission accomplished. Pretty sure the Urban stuff will catch you fish........... just like bread.

The lake ive started fishing responds really well to nut baits, so I just want a 5 kilo bag of a shelf life nut bait to mix in with my tiger nuts, so was between this Manilla or monster tiger nut

If AD are selling it at £30 for 5kg they are buying it for £15 for 5kg, by the time Urban have taken their pound of flesh covered labour, delivery etc it doesnt take a genius to realise it isn't going to contain the highest quality ingredients in the world. BUT whether that matters to the fish or not is another matter.

You're right, the same bollix would always come up by those who know jack all and are happy to snipe at a good man's business. I know a couple of lads who have used Terry's tuna bait for years......they catch loads and loads of fish!

It's normally £40 for 5 kilos, as is most baits they sell, just the 12mm are on offer for like £31, plus they have a 10% off on all bait so it's like £28 after that, thought it might be worth a go for that 😂

Whilst I tend to agree with you. I think in this case there is a grain of truth. I seem to remember that ABS put out a statement saying they did not want to be associated with Nutcracker as the two parties had a difference of opinion on bait ingredients. I can't recall them ever doing that with anyone else they've rolled for so I'm guessing they must have been some way apart.

Indeed Tel is one of Warburtons best customers !! As for ABS I think the issue was that their rolling machines couldn't handle the amount of breadcrumbs in the mix 😉
