Of course it matters with the hooks and rigs being used. I'm assuming the pop ups and wafters are the same size so it's relative. Yikes.

What's wrong with bits of Nut in your Boilie? You prefer Powder in your Bait?
Fortunately didn't see that (to an extent) with the Tricknut samples I got.

You're being made to feel like your being awkward, very helpful, as stated 'some people'.

Edit, I also don't think a 1 size sample is representative of a range within a flavour, it simply hopefully proves the 12mm size is o.k.
I guess we need to be a tad more specific when ordering a sample and not make any assumptions. Personally I'd have another pack in the post to you, but thats me.

I have no doubt the full range is fine due to reputation however that isn't the point, and I'm not trying to be awkward or harsh with any of my comments, just honest, I have no ulterior motive

Everything's right with lumps in the bait - the lumpier (whether nut, kelp,etc) the better imo.

Why didn't you ask for different sizes, although quite why you need to see each different size to check against your rigs is a bit beyond me. Just change the hair length or whatever. Mind you, I just use a size 4 for everything tho.....

If you wanted to actually go out fishing with a sample, why not get a kilo of the size you were after 🤷🏻‍♀️

It really is no big deal
We often just use whatever baits we have to hand for samples
Sometimes 20mm sometimes 15 or 12 or a mix!
This time of year 12mm baits are really popular so we just use them!!
Same bait same everything just different sizes!
If you had stated you wanted a certain size I'm sure our lads would have done it!
We often get asked for only freezer bait samples or only shelf life
All can be accommodated for

Just received my 2 tubs of pop ups today and the sample pack thrown in was tricknut in various sizes and shelf life. Herb in 20mm freezer. Nutriplex in 15mm freezer and k20 in 12 or 15mm (can't remember) in freezer. That's a fantastic array of a sample in my eyes! Really well packaged and labelled as well
