wafter = semi buoyant
Pop up = Fully Buoyant
Bottom bait = sinks

Easy one for me Trent Baits Freshwater shrimp or Mainline Cell. These 2 been the best by far for me. And bottom baits have outfished pops ups.

why buy a wafter and a pop up in every mix you use... I saw a clever trick carry a bit of thicker soldering wire with you.. push it into a pop up to weight it down a bit job done .. Ive been on sticky krill 3 seasons now with ok success but am adding oxford baits MC nut to my armoury this season.

I wouldn't call sticking bits of toxic material into your hookbait a clever idea....

For me it has been Essential Baits B5 in the shelf life version. Sadly after brexit I can no longer get them. Right now I'm a bit lost as to where to source a bait that I can have the same confidence in.

Ccmoore equinox was the most successful bait that i have ever used but now that they have stopped making it.....

DNA switch and a ccmoore northern special are the best boilie / pop up in terms of reliability at the moment

Ive been using Geoff Bowers Malarky in UK and European waters since it came out, 100% confidence, although I did take advantage of Baitworks recent offer and bought a few kilo of the Royal Marine and the Monster Red, but yet to get out to use it.

How can it be both crap and associated with serious carp fishing at the same time?

Ok if i need to explain it I will, for me twenty years ago was when a 30lb fish was what I classed as serious carp fishing.
