Yes, thought so. I use the feedstim one, aparantly that's the original Sluis one.

It's fairly course the BAF one but does have a nice smell to it. That bait rolls superb at 20% CLO

I have both and the Feedstim is even coarser. I actually used a sieve to sieve the biggest pieces out. But indeed, it's a great additive for leakage, binding, hardening and in my opinion is acts as soy meal in that it gives a nice texture/rollability to the dough.

Why would you want to use coarse maize semolina?

I think I used the wrong word.

Here it's called coarse polenta, which is coarse ground maize.

And I would like to try it, to improve hardness of the bait (thus lowering the need for egg albumin) and for leakage and flecks/particles in the baits.

Similar thoughts to me. Plus kelp has naturally occurring Betaines

Just the Kelp for me too.
Could always add some whole & crushed black Rapeseeds for flecks?
