Hi guys,
Have Mainline stopped authorised rollers from rolling? It seems impossible to find anyone other than Mainline producing (retail) bags at the moment...
Thoughts?

Okay, I'm getting a bit of a complex now - getting paranoid
I've emailed 2x of my regular rollers, I alternate between two, one's got a shop on eBay and I've not heard anything... my mate's just bought 25kg of Urban off of one of them and he got a message straight back! Have Mainline put the frighteners out there or something?! One of my roller's used to send out their 'approval ticket' from Mainline - just wondering if their trying to keep everything in house now?
I'll have to switch baits at this rate, I'm down to my last 10kg

Ha, I know, it's touch and go though... I was supposed to be away this week - pre-Covid, but everything got cancelled. If it hadn't, I would have been stuck!
Have you heard anything?

Have you phoned and spoke to Mainline themselves ?
Or send them an email.

I haven't. To be honest I don't know anyone that uses Mainline anymore. Most seem to have drifted to other suppliers now. I think they were a bit short sighted. All the guys I knew that used it got it direct from the factory, but the thing is now for the same sort of money you can get comparable bait delivered to your house. One of my waters has a lot of mainline testers on it and a lot of guys used to tag their bait into the testers orders to get it cheap. But in the end I think a lot just get sick of the aggro of having to go through other people when others do bait for the same money directly.
I'm fishing mon/tues/weds/thurs next week. I will ask around and see if anyone knows anything.

@ip100, I know, I know... I've just been so stuck in my ways with them and generally much more consistent since switching from Live, which is what I was using before.
Hijacking my own thread a bit then, but go on, can anyone recommend me an alternative to Cell?

That would last me about 2 years 😂😂😂
