No one needs his permission? This is where his cease and desist falls flat on its face. And even now, I doubt he could put a pre condition of sale on any goods anyhow.

What's funny is I know for a fact from two people he's sold at trade prices to both of them and they aren't tackle companies they're bait companies. So he knew full well what was going to happen in both those cases.

I've bought bait from a third party roller whose details were passed to me by John himself,using his basemix and flavours.

Has anyone contacted John to ask what it's all about. Surely he would have an explanation if true.

Very little made for actual carp out there that we use in our baits, most stuff is just used from the human & animal feed industries but then put together by anglers following generalised ideas from the late 60's early 70's.

You could say that about loads of stuff, virtually every industry has cross overs

Yes but we're not talking about other stuff are we, we are talking about anglers with generally no qualifications in what they are doing putting together a boiled bait for coarse fish and then often trying to make out they know the ins & outs of this most simple thing like it's difficult?!

We even had someone on a recent thread saying tiger nuts & sweetcorn are short term baits and don't catch big or rarely caught carp. You have posted plenty of stuff with no real answers, just plenty of bluff.

It's embarrassing the way bait gets talked up.

Could be something related to REACH. All chemicals now need to be registered, over 1T and it can get costly

No real answers? I get PMs thanking me for the advice lol.

I was referring to where you said that not a lot of what's used is designed for carp I.e drawing on ingredients from other trades.

You seem to be on a mission to find an argument when I was literally finding similarities in other industries.

As for the science being from the 70's some of it definitely is some of it definately isnt. The fact you make such a broad statement shows a lack of research into the subject.

Also, beyond optimising a diet for health and nutrition as well as making it attractive, what else do we need to progress from that?

The only thing I think was lacking in recent years was tge exploration of sustainable marine proteins.
