and don't forget postage costs as well. Like CC Moore, you've only got the 1 item the belachan block with postage will probably come to about £6 all in and that's only enough to make 2.5 Kilo at 100g a Kilo. Might be worth while looking in an Asian food wholesaler for a larger amount. Also looks like Holland and Barrett no longer have Vecon in stock and that was the best price I could find, 1 jar is only enough for 3 kilo at 75g a Kilo but as rivers says you can get 1 Kilo tubs but again don't forget the postage because it's heavier.

yes mate delivery charges are going to bump it up when I order in a few weeks I will break it down so I have a minimum amount to roll 50 kg a time so I aint ordering stuff constantly

The trick I found with vecon , find a health shop other than H&B that stocks vecon and ask them if they will get you the 1kg tubs , it worked for me in one of my local health food shops , worth a try ? I used to buy 4 tubs at a time

I could never find shrimp blocks from my local Chinese wholesale , so brought it from cc Moore's ,

To be honest mate , I used both and never noticed much difference ,
Neither did I notice any difference using soya flower or Jordans wheatgerm from the supermarket 😂

The bait mate , I'm an average carp angler 👍
I'll add this about the bait from my experience , it easily out fished a few of the rated baits , the only commercial bait I have found that was/is on a par with it , Trent baits liver . As I say just my findings and I'm sure there are others 👍
