Yeah Phil and Andre are top guys down there,

I had another mid forty on Friday on their pineapple nut boilie, never had so much confidence in bait.

I know mate, bait bias from anglers, I've never found the fish too bothered.

Wrasbury baits all the way for me
Had the pleasure of fishing with Phil talk about an education

Im surprised to see how little people are recommending CC Moore.

I have used so many baits over the years. Sticky Krill and Manilla, Baitworks, Urban Baits NutCracker, Nash baits, Crafty Catcher etc.

The most productive baits for me have been Baitworks Monster Red in the colder months (only used in cold) CC Moore Live system, both cold and warm months and recently i just tried CC Moore Pro Stim Liver, Super meaty sausage/liver based flavour, very spicy and pungent. I was about to purchase 10KG of the stuff but the consensus seems to be leaning towards DNA, good price and quality.

Is there a stand out bait by DNA that most would suggest? The Bug for this time of year?

Honestly I would stick to baitworks and just buy bigger quantity.

Gerry has just linked 50% off at Essex Angling, the price comes off at the till and there's some crafty catcher boilies in there

Those crafty catcher pepper and peach are a real throwback to the 90s, they remind me of those duo-colour baits that Richworth used to do!

I don't rem the Richworth ones but on a syndicate I was on not long ago a bait that did well was Peach & Black pepper. I used to use the Nash Peach Oil (was it palatant), I still have a new bottle and a opened one somewhere, it smelt amazing.

I've been given a couple of kilo of DNA the Bug to try and seems nice bait, only issue I've got is the pop ups don't seem to last long! Had a bream in the early hours say 10/12 hours after casting out and the pop up could barely hold my rig up!
I tried my other rod and that's was the same! Sticky pop and Baitworks pop ups last loads longer!

That does surprise me. I asked Jason a while ago for a S7 airball stick, I wanted it predominantly to use as a floater bait but it would've been handy as a pop up plug or to balance a bottom bait. He said there wouldn't be a market for it. A airball pop up wouldn't be amiss surely, they do them as fluoros.

Use maize alongside boilies? Cheap as chips

Bill Cottam, have a nosey on FB, if the previous owner of Nutrabaits is happy using it, you should be too
I was very tempted to use Vita Lac last year but ended up on a different bait.

Used RG for years. Great bait, (my choice is Red Sea Squid) and brilliant service from Greg and the lads.

Use with complete confidence.
Are you sure?
