In heavily stocked commercials and syndicates with a huge biomass of hungry fish you are right. In other waters it is rarely the case.

It's not a proper bait debate until someone gets banned!

Do we even know spa is quality? Or is that just general assumption because of high price?

Assumption made from post 13, Smurf wrote Tony Mills joined them in 2017 and he has a proven track record (worked with Daz at Vision Baits and SBS before that).

We have found that using less bait has become a major edge especially with the hnv type baits. I always think of my time at welly and the fact that in an entire season I used what some people were putting out in a 3 day session! And I was consistent throughout spring summer autumn and especially winter when nothing else was caught. I always like the idea of a good food source but enough to catch one carp at a time. The lakes this year have been filled in.......so do the reverse! It has always worked for me. Going back to spa baits has anyone seen the bait or ingredient list? Has anyone caught on it? Who is the brains behind it?

Peobably not good since you asked
I don't pay much attention to the coming and going of companies and have not bought a bait in years, except a few out of curiousity or to compare results.

I have no idea, haven't seen those baits being sold anywhere I shop that is why I asked.

Both did good bait and both shut down for other reasons that had nothing to do with the quality of the bait. I think one wanted out the backstabbing bait industry even if he didn't actually say that and the other was due to retirement
Not sure that has any relevance on the quality of bait and the knowledge that Tony Mills has
I guess he is not a 'fashionable' name in carp fishing so by default his bait must be 'crap' then

Anybody been using spa baits then ? Seem to catch some good fish if you look at the Facebook page. Also if you buy the deals the price seems to come down a lot, like the look of a couple of the baits.
