Im going to try some baitworks atlantic heat boilies as freebies but after reading several negative comments about the quality of baitworks pop ups Im thinking I should try a different brand for the hookbait pop ups.

I hear UB baits can do a custom AH hookbait which is currently what Im leaning towards. Does anyone else have any suggestions that have worked well?

And is altantic heat in shelflife as good as the frozen version?

Baitworks do a corkball kit with paste, corkballs and a booster. More satisfying to roll your own and th kit is £10 for approx 50 baits.

Whatever you want, it won't make any difference. It's where you out the bait that ls the most important bit. Of the range I use the garlic ones, and also S2 and S3 and F1

Stoglemans hookbaits for pop ups. He does a full range of bait works pop ups, some of the best hand rolled cork balls on the market.

Yes his pop ups are fantastic. Alternatively, the DIY kit that comes from bait works is actually very easy to use.

Why don't you try the pop ups for yourself first?!

I've found the cork dust versions perfectly buoyant enough and I'm using size 2 hooks underneath them!
As mentioned, the corkball kits are very good if you want to be keeping hinges/chods up for days.
Are you sure?
