To be fair I've not heard anything negative since Ryan took over, they were a shower of **** when matt was running it

Like I said earlier he rolled some for me with basemix and liquids I supplied and they looked nice but fell apart in no time at all, so I had a go myself and they last perfectly well. Matt was notoriously flakey when it came to delivery, people waiting weeks or months and that's just taking the piss. He had circumstances but was still taking orders so really unprofessional. Not used his own baits, I prefer shillhams airballs popups, or specialised hookbaits. I'm having about 2 thirds of my fish of the garlic ones on the trip I'm on at the minute

I've had about 12 orders off Ryan and he's been spot on to do business with. One time I had a pot that turned soft about couple hrs, I mean really soft. Contacted Ryan and problem sorted. Can't really fault him. But then I was a lucky one. Never had one problem with matt either. I wouldn't use anything else. In a overpriced market where other companies are asking silly money. These are the ones for me 👍🏻

I've had multiple orders off Ryan, only Bobbers as don't use pop ups. He and his hook baits have been great, I also never had problems with Matt, even towards the end. I don't use any other hookbaits only UB over AB Baits boilies 👌🏻

Ryan rolled some bespoke mix corkballs for me. have been perfect, paste stays on the cork, super buoyant. Big from me and Id use him again without doubt.

Matts old UB Corkballs were far too soft. For a 'bespoke manufacturer', I could not believe how poor they were, my own home made ones being miles better. A curiosity purchase, and an error. It's not difficult to make them last at least 48 hours, I can see no excuse for shabby products.

That was Matts not Ryan's so has no relevance to your original question.It seems you are just trying to stir up **** about Ryan,have you actually used his baits yet
Are you sure?
