Good evening,
Has anyone successfully recreated the original scent of the Nash monster pursuit.
I'm aware of the recipe.
Shellfish sense appeal.
Regular sense appeal.
Salmon oil.
But having ordered the hutchy flavours it doesn't seem close, so thought I'd ask.
Thank you.

Wasn't there another liquid, maybe two in there??
Crustacean extract or seafood blend rings a bell.. maybe I am wrong?

This was the original recipe as per Terry's book,
3ml shellfish sense appeal.
10ml regular sense appeal.
1ml salmon oil palatant.
I can remember a few different combos with one including liver.
But it would be the commercially available one I'm after.
Thanks Tom.

The base mix would have added to the smell

Should have explained this, but I have previously had a bait made by a company that are no longer in business, they successfully used a combination in a fishmeal base they already had,
So I'm sure it was the combination of flavours that I remember.
Thanks Tom.

Yeah, but you'd need the same base mix as they used for it to smell the same

I'm told that the Salmon Oil palatant is the same/very similar to Catchit Labs Salmon flavour.

I have no doubt it would have been built around a similar fishmeal base mix with old ratios but he certainly didn't go out of his way to relplicate, the bait from scratch.
He merely added a flavour combination to the existing mix.

Thanks nemesis, I also read that their shellfish was very similar to the original.

Are you making it on a standard 40% content plain fishmeal base mix,
or the the spiced TH version with 15% Robin red content.

I'm just playing around with different ideas ideas at the moment and seeing how I get on,
it'll be a high fishmeal content to start.

But a bait with 40% provimi (which is a fair guess was in monster pursuit) will smell different to a bait with 40% krill. Or sardine and anchovy, or any of the other meals - or a combination!
I wouldn't worry too much as without the actual recipe or actual liquids, you'll never get it spot on. Just use the best mix you can now, with the best/closest match and don't worry if it's not exactly as you remembered, as memory plays funny tricks!

Thanks Frothey.
You're not wrong memory and nostalgia my favourite recipe 😋.
I used to get a kilo of basemix and the liquid to add to it.
I think if I go along the lines of the catchitlabs.
Shellfish sense appeal.
Regular sense appeal.
And salmon flavour.
I shouldn't be far wrong.

That's because Catchit used to supply Nash! The red liver is identical too.
