found a pot of s2 corkballs In the shed and I’d say they are 18 months old.
They are rock hard to the point I am seriously struggling to get the bait screw into them.

Any tips to soften them up a bit?

If you have lost your sense of taste?

Seriously I’d get a covid test done ASAP for peace of mind.

Mate if your S2's don't taste of anything there is something up with them. S2's taste lush!

I’ve used the S2 for a while, so not new to the baits and they have been consistent. I bought the Garlics when they were released and never really gave them a chance, but I see they have a strong following on here. They have been in the sealed tub with all my other hook baits no moisture. Maybe I’ll buy another pot to compare.

Just to add the S2 have a sweet caramel taste and a reasonably strong smell.

Have you had yours open in moisture?

I wouldn’t be putting the garlic ones into my mouth.

It’s all I use now, I’ve found the S2’s work well with and in bags. The garlics seem better over bait.

I was thinking with all the talk of how revolting the smell from the fermented garlic hemp was they might kick up a bit too. Perfectly willing to accept that my nose may have no relation to what a carp senses, was just curious as to others experience.
