Fair enough.
Wasn't knocking you at all, great capture.
Just wasn't sure what you'd say caught it

Taken delivery of 25kg of the new bait, smells a winner. Reminds me of strawberry, and a similar make up to i bait which is great, as I did really well on it a couple of years ago.

No worries, my frustration wasnt with you.
Personally I honestly think both.. I've had a run of good fish since new year on this combo.. The fish are clearly feeding off the ABS free offerings and the hookbait with a bag was obviously equally attractive to get the pick ups.
Incidentally the black mamba hookbait is based on the hydra k mix if I'm not mistaken with some added special tweaks and enhancements from Matt. The pink Plum and squid bobber ontop is clearing working too and Matt's own creation.

“Smells like a winner” 
Bait companies love hearing that.
No offence, it just makes me chuckle a bit when I hear that.

I'd love to see the feedback they get from this 'testing'

I don't think you are being completely fair there. If you smelt a £1 a kilo semo euro boilie over flavoured with chemicals or say a bag of active8 or krill for instance. The ingredients in those baits stink and as well as breaking them up and looking at them, what you can smell would definitely tell you they are a better fish catcher than the cheap ****. Especially long term. When I was on carp company Jules used to roll their natural impact without any flavours and it still had a strong smell due to the base mix. So what's wrong with smelling a bait and helping form a judgement on it? Even if carp don't smell.

Too true. How many times are bait and tackle praised for a capture.
