I'm an old school angler and home bait maker and applied to join as I thought it would make for interesting discussions. I had a reply but they were concerned that I had no Facebook profile.
Made me laugh lol.

That's because the person who runs the page is scared to death of being challenged by anyone with any experience on any aspect of bait making. There are also many back door deals that go on within the group and thus the narrative is designed purely to push certain products from select individuals.

Interesting perspective. All I've got from the group is helpful advice with recipes (not just a promo for certain base mixes or products). I'm not interested in personal beefs that some may have.
Not sure what these back door deals are... perhaps I'm missing something

He was on here a while back but got banned pretty quickly. Talks a lot of drivel and doesn't like to be proven wrong on anything.

I'm not up to speed with anyone's history with forums... but my experience as a beginner has been positive in the group. And the Trop basemix is good which is perhaps the important point in this thread.
Also, I'm in a few other bait making groups on faceache... and all of them have one or two opinionated people who don't like (amongst other things) flavours, certain bait companies, and... the list goes on.
Doesn't mean there isn't some value or good advice from those on there.
Probably enough from me on this now.

Trop is indeed a good basemix. The usual mix of fishmeals, refined milks, clo, yeasts etc. It was the work of a group of members who after is release were dumped out of the group so Robbo could claim it as his own... I have no beef with the geezer but he is a proper tool, I only questioned him about his "fish tank" and was booted instantly...
