Yea I've done 4 sessions since Xmas and used at least 2 kilo everytime I've been and I've had at least 2 fish every session.. didn't put 2 kilo in all at once but after each fish or bream put more in. It has been pretty warm relatively. Funny enough 2 of the sessions I woke up with ice on the bivvy and mat after having a couple in the night.

It's the sack around the nut that smells so I pay the premium for clean or skinned ones

I've not come across Active Baits before guys is what they turning out fairly good? I'm looking for a new bolie as we speak and have been set on Nutrabaits Trigga for a little while (only reason being is that I buy in to the marketing behind it). Would you say Active are worth a look?

I won't use anything else.
And I'm useless.

Worthy of a much closer look than nutrabaits imo. In fact don't look, just buy.

Hi Chris. Abs was started by Geoff bowers years ago when he left premier baits. His mixes have emptied waters home and abroad consistently since. I've used them on and off for years and I've never had a bad batch or bad product from anything they've sent me. I've not used their more modern mixes like hydra k and rock lobster, I bait etc, but I've caught on all their classic stuff like malarkey, 5th element, gnz, mcnut etc etc. People tell me their new stuffs even better.
By cutting out the middle man his prices are pretty reasonable and service is second to none. If you call them and tell them the sort of water you are fishing and perhaps what bait goes in then I'm sure they'll be happy to recommend something.
I'd say use with confidence. Plenty of guys on here use nothing else and they would be my first choice again without hesitation if my current bait dried up. I've seen first hand what their baits catch out of some pretty tricky valley waters.

I've pulled a few boillies apart today
Definitely small pieces of nuts in it
Tastes slightly chocolate
It smells fantastic ... not that means anything but my garage smelt delicious today till I sorted it into smaller bags
And to the guy asking about the baits
All they make is brilliant
The Hydra K was good for me last year

Thanks for the info guys. I've not heard of them but I've been 'out of the game' for about 6/7 years. Are they not pushy with the mainstream media? I don't think that's a bad thing just interesting.
Prices do look fairly reasonable for such a quality bait

What Wayne has said in post 91 is absolutely spot on. If you go on their website & click on the heading 'About' there's a 5 minute video of Geoff speaking about the company & what they do. Failing that there's a really good interview with him in the original magazine of Subsurface. Geoff's knowledge of bait is simply astounding. Also when he first started doing bait I believe he made a lot of contacts in the pharmaceutical industry, hence the fact that they're constantly getting new products to try out. I believe this new bait incorporates some of these new products. Definitely use with confidence.

Thanks guys certainly sounds like they're worth a go to me! I'm only going to fishing a local club water whilst I'm still looking for a decent syndicate to get on so let's see how it gets on there!
