spose its abit cheeky/bias of me suggesting a bait i sell myself, but i can honestly recommend it due to the fact that i roll the bait myself and know the intricacies of the bait for a fact and how its been dealt with e.g cooking temps/times, ratios, freshness ect. also the fact that ive used it for years and not forgetting feedback i get. But maybe above all, its caught alot of carp so how could i not recommend it!

but i wont beat around the bush im trying to build a customer base aswell, but it would be silly of me to come on here and recommend a bait that i sell knowing its poor/mediocre. especially when most guys on this forum know there onions.

But 2 other nut baits that i personally would use if i had to
- poacher baits (great quality, unique to them)
- oxford carp baits (just because it works and catches loads)
and i respect and trust the guys that run the companies aswell
. i know poacherbaits are rolled by hand still, wich i rate and respect because its hard graft.
ino joe at OCB used to hand roll but not sure if he still dose now, but trust him regardless.

but they're are so many other nut baits on the market that are probably great and rolled by good trustworthy companies so its alot on your personal choice and judgement tbh

but some are better than others.
when choosing a bait ask yourself are they made with,care, precision, passion by people you trust or are they just well marketed and mass produced in a factory buy people who maybe dont care as much and would be willing to sacrifice quality ingredients from lesser ones for profit margins.
theese are just some of the questions you should ask yourself before making a decision.

Hamdcrafts Tricknut or trent baits active nut. Won't go wrong with either, not just nut flavoured baits they actually contain nuts

That seems an unfairly harsh way to look at it?

The samples are free, I imagine take just as much time to process as an actual order and the company will do it for nothing... all you're paying for is a bunch of people to put them in your hands 24hrs after asking.

We'll have to disagree

EDIT, I'm not sure buying blind has any risk anyway, seems a very well respected bait

I'm surprised - did you speak with them? They've only ever sent me exactly what I asked for.

Give them a call buddy, I'm absolutely sure they'll put it right for you.

Hello mate
Just seen your comment
Not sure what you mean, you got samples of 12mm baits in your sample pack? And that's a problem because????

Especially as he says a bit further down how's he's impressed as he can see lumps of nut in it?

Come on Gav, you should be sending one of every bait, in every size, freezer and shelf life, matching hookbaits, etc,etc,etc

Some people 🙄

There would have been 15mm samples of herb and probably 20mm Nutriplex in the sample pack too
That's why I'm a tad confused 😂

Why would size matter in a sample, wouldn't it be more to determine if you liked the look of the bait itself? I can confirm their 12 mm baits are 12mm and their 15mm baits are 15mm

Sorry, only just seen this...
The small size is no good for me due to the massive amount of Silvers.
I was hoping to get samples of the bigger sizes - 15 mm and 20mm.
Wasn't trying to be awkward or anything... don't think that's too much to ask to add 2 or 3 (literally) of the other sizes?
Are you sure?
