Looking at doing my first trip to France and have narrowed it down to 3 that have availability for when I'm going they are
● Abbey lakes
● Cretelakes
●Lac Lunar

Anyone been to these and have reccomendations?

I hear you but certain things for me I think make a difference for catch rate and that's additional liver,GLM and betaine HCL. May just be the confidence in it but I feel it does help but then sometimes a 18mm out the bag does just as well....

Thanks for your feedback.

Hi, Can I use spirulina as a dusting or coating on already prepared boilies? Like you would GLM powder etc or does it need to be added to the boilie and cooked/prepared?

Could get a castable weed rake and creat a clearing. Done well doing that in the past.

Had mine almost a year now and no issues at all.

Do you roll your own baits now or look for particular ingredients in a bait?

Yeah make you right!

Please do give your point on bait production mate (don't give up to many secrets haha).
I soak my baits in water and add salt and glaze with a liquid. I have never really used GLM as much as I should used to use squid powder.

Thanks for your responses. So if you only have access to commercial bait. What is the best way to firstly to identify a good bait and secondly enhance a standard bait to something that is a more attractive meal? There are glugs,dips,powders that can be used but surely if a better made boilie can be identified its a win win.
