Calling all Herb users. Is there much difference between the texture of Herb freezer baits and shelfies?
I’ve been using shelflife all year, but find them fairly hard which makes me wonder about their cold water solubility. If the freezer baits are much softer I may have to pick up a small bait freezer and switch to them. (There’s no way I’m allowed bait in our food freezer, hence getting shelfies)
And Gav, good to hear that business is going well enough for the need of a bigger premises! All very exciting for the future mate 👍

Good luck to you Gav, not surprised you are having to upscale as the range is quality all round.
Look forward to the new additions 👏👏

Afternoon lads and ladies,
Just a little heads up that handcraft will be out of action leading up to Christmas and maybe early in January whilst we are building our new facility.
At some point we are going to have to shut down the website temporarily whilst we move and we won’t be able to make any bait for a while.
The good news is that we will be in a much better position on the other side and in a place that is closer to my home and with a bright outlook.
There are some exciting products coming, new liquids, new hookbaits, and even a new boilie 😉
We have new anglers on board and also a whole new project that we have to keep under wraps for now but it is going to be a very busy year in 2023.
Before we move there will be a brief chance to get hold of some boilies on a crazy deal but they won’t last long if it is like the last time we moved!!
I will try and keep you updated as best as I can but I’m not always around and I am still trying to catch another mega common when I get a day off 😂😂
Thanks for all of the support and custom this year and all of the private messages.
Still so much to do!!

Lovely venue

Today I had one of the most amazing catch reports from France that I have ever heard of.
Two anglers who I won’t name, have just done a week at a lake (that I won’t name) and went through 60k of our bait (crazy in November) but what they landed will take some beating!
4x40s
20x50s
10x60s
4x70s to 78
And one 20 pounder 😂
In November…….and they didn’t fish 24/7
Sting hookbaits and squids helped them
And this isn’t rainbow lake or anywhere like that!
Two very good underground anglers who both agreed it probably won’t happen again!
I am allowed to share photos of one of them on our social media 😂

It’s one hell of a carp
I reckon it may come out again before Xmas and it may well be on a handcraft hookbait 😂

Some fish that common. Guy on my club lake caught it few months back. Your hookbaits certainly catch them 👏

Another U.K. 60 came out today on the sting
61lb 3oz waterside common……..he had the only two bites of recent times and both of them on the little 12mm yellow perils!!
Hence they are all out of stock again 😂😂
Back in stock middle of the week
That common is Incredible!!

Evening all, been a while since i looked in on you 😂
Plenty going on at HC and weirdly we just had the most orders ever in a weekend. I would expect that in April not late October into November!
Some lovely carp being caught but I’m not gonna post them here as they just disappear 😂😂

Thanks mate, have you tried all the range or you just using one particular bait?

Not used the freezer baits but the shelflife are soft enough and crumb up easily
