They are hookbaits mate, use them like you would with any other.
I personally use them over a scattering of my selected boilie (pop-ups and balanced bait). I have also used them as a single hookbait (pop-up).
My small success with them (had a slow year anyway) has come over the scattering of boilie.

I use the CC pop ups and corkballs on a spinner rig and the CC Balanced baits on a German rig

I've used them both as singles and over bait (for the pop ups and corkballs) and the balanced baits I always fish over a bit of bait

We will be completely up to date with all orders, right up until yesterday, by this afternoon Greg. It's a good time right now, they will go out very early next week.

I'm going to take some photographs of the hard coated F1 (Fruits 1) balanced and crushed cork pop ups we have ready later when I get some time. We also have tonnes of white S3 in both CC pop ups & balanced, and a load of pink balanced S2 all ready to go.

When I get a chance later I will put some photographs up on here, plus how to order any of them as special orders. They will not be going on sale on Faceache etc until after the weekend.

Just fish with them as you normally would Pete, as others have kindly explained. Don't put to much free bait out after a bite, as it will all still be there normally.

They are lethal as single hook baits too.

These below in the photographs are being sold as special orders. None of them are on the website. If any of you would like to order any of these hook baits, please TEXT us on our work mobile number first (contact page of website). You will be told what to order from our website. Please include the FULL NAME which will be on the order, and please include what you would actually like to order all in one text message. You will get a reply (within twenty four hours), please do not text a second time, or you will lose your place in the queue.

We have shed loads of all of them, all ready to send out on Monday/Tuesday etc.

The pink balanced S2 are self explanatory, they are available in 13mm & 17mm. The white S3 crushed corks are available in 13mm & 17mm CC pop ups, and 13mm & 17mm balanced bottom baits.

The F1 (fruits) are available as 17mm CC pop ups, or 13mm & 17mm balanced bottom baits. They are a white CC, cured with various fruits with tangerine oil, which are added to our S series liquids. They are then hard coated, in an excellent milk powder, which is combined with four fruit enhancers and citric acid. They were originally designed as a single winter/spring hook bait, with a real kick. We only took these from the website earlier this year, because the hard coating is such a PITA to sort out on a large scale, and very expensive time wise. Not a week has gone by since, when I do not get someone moaning at me about when the F1 would be back... So here they are. The hardened coating, will last up to twenty four hours this time of year, slowly dissolving particles of goodness. The F1 are the same price as our garlic, but you get 30 baits in a tub, instead of 35. The S3 & pink S2 balanced are standard prices.

All, will be sold on a first come, first served basis. When they are gone, we will roll some more through the winter, so there is no need to panic buy them. They will be put on other forms of social media from next week, you lot have a head start.

Got mine, quite accidentally they really match the flavour profile of my current boilies, so I am looking forward to using. Showed a mate and he is going to order some too. Cheers

We are going to hold them back now mate until the Spring. With pre digested and GLM added, they will be more of a warmer water bait. The plan was to get them out at the beginning of September, which did not materialise due to us being to busy. The Garlic, has not had a winter yet, as they only came out Spring 2019. The S2 has always been regarded as a truly exceptional winter bait... The GPB1 should in my mind, be even better in cold water than the S2. So to sell a fishmeal/GLM version now, in late October would not be the one really.

Sorry for opening my mouth.
Are you sure?
