What do you think of Trent baits? Freshwater shrimp has had great reviews and quite tempted to give it a go, just not sure if it is an all year bait?

Also like the look of bait works Atlantic heat. Almost too much choice these days 😂

Some interesting points raised. Decision has been made for me on my current syndicate, as they do not permit shelf life, so I have to use frozen which is definitely not so convenient. Whether any better or not, I cannot say, as I still blank most of the time

Sorry, as an old post, however just reading with interest. I have lost a bit of confidence in any shelflife boilie after listening to a Korda podcast with Dave Moore (I think) as it sounds like they are not likely to aid your catch rate.

Happy to make my own mind up, but I have to admit that it did put me off slightly as he definitely knows his stuff and have heard similar from others.

Thanks all - interesting points raised. I think it is the physchological bit for me as I feel more rods equals more chances, but often I don't find 3 good spots and just chuck a 3rd anywhere because I have it.

Might try 2 or even 1 depending on the swim and situation 👍

Hi all
How many rods do most use for their fishing?
Currently on a small weedy lake and I suspect more lines and disturbance could mean fewer chances, however I have always used 2-3 rods and often felt it gives more opportunities.
I am minded to try just 1 rod for over nighters and short sessions, but cannot quite get my head around the thought of only fishing one spot.
Does anyone use just 1 rod?
Interested in views/thoughts please 👍

Loved the whole series. 99% sure it is all fiction though, but must be elements of truth in it along the way.

Thanks for the reply - baits are seemingly good value - just cannot work out if simply soya flour and semolina or whether they actually are good value.

Can find very limited reviews on them, but they sound good on the website

I know this is an older post now, however Kent particles are doing some great deals at the moment - anyone using them or tried them? Like the look of their krill boilies or spicey sausage, so interested to know if anyone has used them. Stick mix also looks interesting
