If you want to order either the Rod Hutchinson S2 (white) Scopex/Pineapple S2 (pink) Red Berry/Vanilla S2 (brown) Cherry Coke S2 (pink)... Then please WhatsApp (best) or text message us on the work mobile phone (contact page of website). 16mm or 13mm crushed cork pop ups or 16mm or 13mm balanced. Start your message with the full name of the payee which will be on the order, followed by exactly what you require, sizes and variations. Please make your message clear. Full name of payer on the order first two words please. Followed by exactly what you require. You will be told what to order from the website. Anything else on the same order will come as normal. WhatsApp or text message only. Once you have sent your message, you then have your place in the queue. Sending further messages, will only lose you that place in the queue.

We only have a certain amount done at the moment. We sent out two sacks full of them yesterday to people on my friends list on Faceache.

We still have some DNA Bug hook baits left in all variations, virtually all the 16mm balanced are gone now though. More basemix and liquids coming from DNA.

As from two weeks ago, all 13mm & 16mm crushed cork pop ups we produce now contain 15% more cork than previously. They are now 15% more buoyant than before.

For the time being, we are now completely out of stock of all of the S2 specials. We will have more ready soon.

We still have some Bug.

Forum member Sam, starting the season on Sutton 2 as he finished it. GPB1 balanced over Poacher T&M freezer baits



We are still getting lots of WhatsApp messages asking for the S2 specials. We have more drying right now. But we are completely sold out of what we had ready for now. They are all going onto the website soon, along with a couple of other variations. Anyone who ordered them as special orders, they are going out today, tomorrow & Wednesday this week.

We have a new home, that has been purpose designed for making hook baits. It will be finished next week. Two other new places for storage. One already just been built, the other will also be completed next week.

Straight away, this will all have a gigantic effect. The curing process which the hook baits go through, has evolved massively over the last decade. Drying the stuff between each cure, has always been by far the biggest limiter as to exactly how many hook baits we can produce at one time. That's why at certain busy times, we could often have a waiting time. Previously, it was only ever possible for us to have a continuous stream of around 10 - 15 kg of hook baits on the go at any one time. That's a lot of hook baits, but not enough. Now we have a lot more space. We have two new purpose adapted driers. Each one, holds and dries over 50kg of hook baits. 100+kg of hook baits drying at the same time. They also speed things up massively. Making a very large dent in the time which it takes us to produce the hook baits from start to finish.

At the start of August, Poacher Baits will have a large batch of their flagship TigerNut & Maple freezer baits, in cured crushed cork pop ups and balanced hookbaits. The TackleBox & FishOn will both have another large stock of 12 & 14mm airball pop ups soon.

Forum member Sam was not finished yesterday. Two more on days only Sutton 2 yesterday after that gorgeous big common... Including his new target 'Jacksons'.... Named after Lee Jackson, and nearly the same age. Well done Sam.

Hi Mark, I know you are getting battered about the s2 specials so won't add to the whatsapp queue. I was just wondering will the cherry cola specials just be done in pink or will they come in the standard s2 colour as well ?

My smell isn't great as I've got a cold, but the first whiff of the RH reminded me of the old Solar Top Banana.

The Hutchys certainly have mulberry aroma and then to my nose there is definitely a back note of secret agent there. Can't wait to give them a whirl 👍🏻

That fish that he caught was incredible. Unfortunately non publicity so it cannot be shown. His first night using them.

'Might' be able to show that 62lb+ common soon, from that very low stock large pit. One of the greatest carp captures ever made in this country, so hope so.

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
