Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on Pallatrax baits.

They're portrayed as being at the pinnacle of bait and a buddy of mine swears by all of their products, but just wondering what the general consensus is

Do you mean by the owner? I don't think anyone else thinks that.

The owner runs a lake that he only allows you to use their own bait and end tackle. Either he has upmost confidence that his bait is the best in the world and everything else is bad....or, he is just out to make as much money as he can.

I've seen some glugged hook baits that they do but do they do any other baits?

Seems a bit preachy in anything I've seen.

The owner is one of the fishing industry's prime plonkers. There are, however, many plonkers out there making decent bait.

From what I have seen and read about their baits they are of decent make up and are HNV, they seem to catch as well as any of the other "top rated" boilies. I have heard good things about their Multiworm as its something a little different as its made up of dried worms and no artificial flavouring so it can really give an edge over all the "going baits" on most lakes.

I went on a holiday trip with a friend's family to his place in Devon over 20 years ago. Bloke was a muppet then and he appears to be even more desperate for a pound note now.

We used his ‘Jungle' baits as he said they were the bees knees. They weren't. I don't know if they are the same baits now.

If anyone buys into his Venn diagram nonsense as anything other than an embarrassing money spinner then more fool them. Yet another parasite on the weaker minded angler.

I didn't say he did. He certainly wants it.

Wow wasn't expecting that kind or reaction.

The hooks are pretty good and I also like the idea of stonz instead or regular weights

I like using stonz when fishing on silt on small venues.

Interesting they are the only hook I ever had snap off at the bend on the take. Was 12 plus years ago but strangely enough binned the lot.

Those stones are ok if you don't need to cast very far, or be particularly accurate.

Bait Buff you state ,
"From what I have seen and read about their baits they are of decent make up and are HNV"

perhaps you could explain the parameters of what makes a bait "HNV" I know what HNV stands for ,High Nutritive Value so can you explain what makes a bait one bait HNV while another is not ?
Are you sure?
