UExcuse me for being a bit dim with regard to the ordering process. I understand that there is nothing available presently. When there is availability are the baits only available from the three designated shops or can orders be made from the website too? Thanks.

Hypothetically I have a limited budget, I want a pot of pop-ups, I have no idea where to start as all the baits sound good, please recommend me a starting point?

In cooking it is common to "dry fry" and then grind whole spices to release flavour natural oils etc. The process s is said to increase the benefits of the spice. Does anybody go to these lengths or are you happy to use the powdered varieties straight from the bag. Or how about essential oil from spices, we all know about some of these.

What do we mean by "singles?" People seem to have different interpretations of what this means. I always assumed it's a bait fished in perfect isolation, nothing around it, on its own. Yet some anglers will call fishing with a bag "singles, while others will call fishing a single bait over a bed of bait a "single bait."

Just so we're all on the same page, which is it to be. Personally I love fishing baits in perfect isolation, give 'em less choice

Any long term (or short term) reviews on Manilla. You don't really hear much about it these days?
Are you sure?

Yes, continue
