In reply to Post #195 The Herb,
This is one that is proving to be a real winner winner chicken dinner. It is not for me to try and give you all the sales spiel but all I will say about it is that the herb has changed handcraft. I’m so happy with the results the feed back and the general buzz about something I have made that it will shape our future. I have been getting closer and closer to a really special red fishmeal for a few years and I think I have nailed it. Find a few lads who are on it, go and have a look, watch the catch reports on our pages and make your own mind up.
Not one negative bit of feedback to me yet (regarding the bait)
It’s well made, has no bread or crap in it, it’s a true fishmeal that is heavy on the liquids. I’m told it smells like monster pursuit or sting (if it does it’s by mistake)
Fenugreek, garlic and liver feature in its make up. From within our team it’s the favourite bait of choice. Just don’t know what it will be like in true winter compared to our other baits.
Amino acids aplenty
No freezer baits in stock until the end of the week 😂

In reply to Post #194 That was my thread , started it as a lot of comments were about pop ups , not the herb…. I’m on a syndi that is bombarded with a fair bit of red fish meals of varying qualities, wanted to find out a bit about the range. A mate has started using it and is quite impressed

In reply to Post #176 That fish was caught on such a cold evening that everyone’s cameras were freezing up and struggled to focus. In the end I just let her go with what we had on two of the cameras and took a chance. I’m never fussed by photos, I’m more worried about getting them back quick. Just need her big brother of a common 😉

In reply to Post #182 Yep not a problem. I've had a 12 mm pick up a size 4 complete with a 22mm bottom bait like there was nothing heavy attached to it

Dark Sting doing OK for me! I wish I could identify the pong!

In reply to Post #181 Shillham technology……trace it all the way back to the man behind handcraft hookbaits.
Regarding buoyancy, we can make them even more buoyant very easily but then they will be far too floaty for many anglers. People don’t want loads of metal or putty on rigs. We have tried to find a nice compromise. Very buoyant and designed for size 4s generally, same with the Wafters. We are aware of the fact that we can’t please everyone.
But the 12s are really made for the size 4 Ronnie brigade or stiff hinge or chods. The 15mm baits are very very buoyant should you need even more!! It’s more about what we can put inside the mixes rather than how buoyant they are. We will happily answer any questions you all have
