I still have around 100ml of Nash Sting Essential oil in my bait cupboard and was wondering if anyone had any good combinations to use with it (base mix, flavours, liquid foods, pop ups etc.)?
After looking through some old carp magazines most people used to use on a birdfood base mix with sweetener but they don't mention amounts of Sting eo they used or what type of sweetener.
Can anyone help?

Excellent in hookbaits ( I use it in my own aniseed pop ups) and it can go with any mix if you ask me. Be careful it is quite strong and also very rare

Have you used it in bottom baits and if so at what dose? Was thinking it might go nice with a bit of cream palatant and sweetener? What level do you use it a in pop ups if you don't mind me asking?

10 drops in amongst my aniseed/secret combo on a one egg mix
Less is more with essential oils as they often smell nice but taste bitter hence the need for sweetners or palatants

Here is an old one, late 90's recipe for a autumn / winter bait

To 1lb Amber Attract base mix, or a similar yellow birdfood mix of your choice.
