I am too busy to get stuck into it at the moment but a quick flick looks interesting. Not many books with any bait making in these days so anything gets my interest

Mine came this morning

What sort of info? Nick Gent is the guy to talk too, look him up on Instagram @piscainsta

Hi Mark when are you expecting to next stock the shops? I am after some more 13mm GBP2 wafters without any extra flavours. Popped into Fishon today but they only have popups left and not getting anymore. Both The Tackle Box and Johnson Ross are also out of waters 🙁

Can you please slow down the success 😂😎

Just for clarity, and I stopped using them many years ago as I no loger make popups, I assume you mean 10% by volume and not weight!

Nothing wrong with Malarky, friend did really well on it about 15 years ago. However to some making your own bait is a hobby in itself (nothing wrong with that) and then catching on your own bait is another step forward in the enjoyment of fishing 😎

Also for £8 a kilo a home roller can make something really different (and probably better but depends on how you define better) to everyone else which can be a big advantage on some lakes 😀

Although I don't use it myself I would go with the liver hydro from what I have read about it on many groups.

I would try it with and without the talin and see if it really makes any difference. I rate it (or similar) but make your own mind up

I have never been sold on the effectiveness of black pepper powder vs the EA which is in a league of it's own. I dropped the pepper powder from my spice mix and it really made now difference to the effectiveness of the bait for me.

Make some without the oil first. Chances are the fishmeal mix is already quite high in oil so you probably don't need to add anymore.

I would use it, maybe with a few spices added and a low level quality flavour (or flavour blend of your own).

I haven't bought a bag of basemix since the 90's but didn't Nutrabaits put the ingredients on the bags? To me that post of the original recipe looks about right from what I remember of the 2 or 3 bags I get then.
