It's a bloody shame they have fallen from grace. God knows how much four seasons mix I used to very great effect.
I used to love Nutrabaits products, base mixes, flavours, additives etc.
There were some absolute treats in there that produced a lot of fish.
When Taska bought it and Bill Cottam left I lost confidence in anything I bought.
Since he is no longer there, I would not go back

Still use their old skool flavours in original bottles, but there's better and more reliable bait out there since the takeover.

The brand was that strong that during their top years 5 kg BFM ready's went for about 250 guilders in Holland. Kid you not. Guilders is from the time of real money btw, about 125 eurolalalamoney.
On the bright side, enjoyed the column of Bill Cottam on carpology, still has a nice way of putting it.

Ingredients used to be on the bags, don't know about now though?
A quick google:
Full Fat Soya Flour
Liver Powder
Equivite
Sodium Caseinate
Wholemeal Semolina
Robin Red
Softbill birdie - PTX?
Brewers Yeast
Mixed Spices - Ken's input
I'm sure Ken can update

Sluis softbill I recall. Otherwise yep that was it. Friend of mine did well with it with Leek Oil. Decent mix.

My guess that Spanish peppers were probably included along side the robin red.
Also remember the smell of Selenavite E,
cough cough the old SBS Vitmin, once the bucket lid was opened.
