154 pots! Considering they are selling for between circa £40 and £130 per pot that is a very fine investment should your mate sell ..

In contrast I've been trying to re-home a pot of the Specialised Garlic corks for over a year now but no takers or even enquiries at half retail price, a bait that some rate highly too (not me though obvs). I guess that true value of any product is realised when it becomes unavailable from the suppliers.

He claims to be 'the very best at what I do ...'

Yep, he may have knocked out some good gear but nobody knows everything and nobody has all the answers, there is no magic formula that catches all fish. The fella was just making bait to make money.

I suspect any collaboration with a larger company would turn into a car crash sooner rather than later with the fella then slagging of whoever took a chance on him.

Sorry if your a fanboy but reading what he's written on the site does not paint a great picture. He may have been burnt a few too many times by said name anglers but then why keep on suppliying them and then throw all the toys out the pram and throw the towel in?.... I guess what he's written isn't the full story..... .

The quoted posts were lifted from his social media, not posts on here.

His reasons are all BS to me.

If he was making good money would he really be bothered about the recognition from the so called top anglers.

Recognition does not make one rich, profits do.

I kinda think the same as few others, no matter how good the bait is he is selling, if he is selling out in minutes then why does it matter if the “known” anglers are telling people they are using his bait? I would understand if he was struggling to sell but he is moaning about the amount of business he is getting now, it would just get worse for him.

He wouldn't make no more money or anything from it so I just don't Understand it all tbh think it's a bit of a cope out, I'm not disputing the quality of the bait just the reasons behind doing what he has done

Maybe he should have gone on Dragons Den with Hovis.

What a bizarre read, I've never heard of him or the company, I suspect it isn't closing for the reasons that is given.

I've heard Jeff Bezos is closing down his multi billion dollar Amazon company because, whilst he's earning 10's of billions of dollars every year. He's not happy that people are saying they bought their stuff off eBay
