No idea what dpmt is but I would just stick to the Activator if I were you. 1 additive is enough.

Think I see what you mean. The additives all do slightly different things within the bait. To be honest if the base is good like the recipe above then you shouldn't need to add much. I tend to add 1 powder attractor like nash squid extract or robin red, krill etc, a bulk liquid food (molasses and anchovy sauce being two of my favourites) and a flavour/sweetener. The cajousers are good and sweeten/flavour the bait at the same time.

For example: 500g base mix +7.5g of squid powder+25mil of anchovy sauce+2.5mil of sweet cajouser and 12 drops black pepper oil.

No reason why you cant mix fishy with cream or fruit flavours.

Jay Riders E-books on his site (books on carp) well worth a look. Cheaper than buying a hard copy. What do you want to know exactly? Inclusion levels of attractors are on the bottles?

Nice baits there. My first attempts at bait making (admittedly over 20 years ago) looked nothing like that. Misshapen sticky balls would be more accurate!

Must get round to knocking some of this up. Did you follow Smurf's exact recipe?

A fair point Sure it does as a lot of the proprietory birdfoods are similar in their make up. Egg biscuit coated in honey or oil plus some seed content.

Don'tbother. Just add it to the basemix. Why the fascination with the mix adding up to 1kg or 100%? Just add 50g or whatever to the finished mix.

Egg based bird food like CeDe

The clue is in the title really. Nectarblend (which is presumably CC Moores Meggablend) would equally do the job.

Fair enough, I see what you are saying. If it was me and hitting 1 kilo mattered I would knock .5% off the cede and add 2.5% Brewers Yeast which I would have thought would further enhance the mix by adding more soluble attraction. Smurf, your views?

As to the missing 2.5%....a good natural additive or two will help give out a little more attraction

@ Chuffy, think he already did!
