tbh I never bothered, plain or maple the activator @ 15-20ml worked on its own.
probably would work but I found that just caught fish and quickly when they were seeing a lot of other baits.
The old edges were 25-30% fishmeal in the base and/or Robin Red
Fishmeal base, no colour, no hydros... low level liver, squid meal and butyric acid worked rather well.

I emailed Johnson Ross and they will be receiving a big mainline delivery including all activators and base mixes in the next couple of weeks. It's on order just waiting for delivery ðŸ‘

I emailed them back in August when I started my last bottle of activator. They said they were expecting the next batch in November/December. Even buying 5-10 bottles at a time, you can never be sure if it's the last lot you're ever going to get, so I gave up and moved on for this year.

My mate rolls me a plum fish meal boilie. I have been thinking for a while to add some activ-8 activator. Anybody used activ -8 with plum together ?
been racking my brains on this, there was another A-8 combo, it might have been plum- talking 20-25 years ago.
That was the good thing about buying base and liquids you could customise it

I could be wrong but I remember reading about Tim Paisley using Mainline Grange with Plum when he went to Lake Raduta. He reckoned it picked out the big commons. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Did it really pick out the big commons though?
Probably caught a couple and then the confirmation bias kicked in.

I'm sure all the fish that we saw published in articles back in the day from Raduta were big silvery commons weren't they? If that's what's in there, that's what you're gonna catch lol
