Can Sticky Baits or Angling Direct post out to Germany?

If I was to use one bait with as much chance of catching on short or long sessions it would be their Active range (krill or manilla - or mixed depending on time of year), as the outter layer melts and is a superb attractant.

The other bait I would look at if it can be shipped is Baitworks Creamino, as the softness of the bait, including their shelf lifes is superb (if you like a soft bait).

And if you can order Baitworks, then some of their Scent from hell hook baits would be a must for me in the order as singles, if I wasn't matching the hatch. In the main I only fish bottom baits and match the hatch, but Scent from Hell has caught me fish at tricky times.

Cant thank you enough for all your good advise here!

So it seems there are clear favourites also matching what has been said in other posts in the forum.
Mainline Cell
CC Moore Live System
Sticky Krill or Manilla

All about in the same price league here (10-11 Euros per kilo when you buy 5kg packages), so thats good :-).

DNA albeit still not available but will watch their website. I need a bait that is consistently available though.

Baitworks albeit not available.

Will for sure give one of the top three a try. Tending towards Mainline Cell as it has been around for a long time here as well.
Will compare it to my current good quality bait made in Germany and see what my impressions are.

Have a nice season!

Do you have a Declathon near you?

That would be the easiest way of buying bait and know its stocked constantly

Why not buy from a boilie company instead of factory-made ones? In my opinion, those boilies are much better quality.

In Belgium/the Netherlands, we have good ones which I can recommend 100% like:

- Triton baits (I use them myself)
- Attractive baits
-Evolution products
- Pioneer baits
- The boilie factory
- Born to Fish


These all use high-quality ingredients and have a quality over quantity mentality, Some even use only completely natural raw materials and without flavours (Triton baits and Attractive baits).

Aren't there no good small boilie companies in Germany?

I also bought some boilies at Decathlon, yes you can catch on them but they smell very chemical
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
