But that’s not all down to a dodgy/badly made bait,that’s could be due to the inexperience of the angler or even his limited ability/knowledge or skills of a water or maybe he’s just a follower on social media and copies other anglers

But do people buy it twice? Quality matters for repeat custom as anglers are fickle when the bobbins are not moving

I think its a modern carper thing - i have the gear they say i need to catch, i have the rig that they catch them all on, and i have the bait they all use to catch the biggun's - I should be hauling now!

I very rarely fish day tickets other then socials - i have been on two this year and and everyone has a wonder bait, Bloke who came in my swim couldn't believe i was using square bait where i had just chopped paste into cube's and boiled. same Guy missed nearly every fish show in front of us as was permanently on phone or doing something other then sitting and watching the water. And then said i had been lucky to have a few fish while he blanked

When your core market is the instant carper who only know what they think they know via social media then yes you dont need a track record just a SM presence, over filled mud puddle PB's are your marketing department.

Unfortunately, it seems that’s what you have to do to be successful these days. The market is so saturated, those that shout thr loudest are the ones that are heard. Quality doesn’t come into it

Indeed, he is giving it his all, with silly gimmicks, catchphrases (double dusted!!!, hehehe) and a very positive attitude and high energy, so well done. It's certainly not for me, but marketing-wise it seems he's kinda winning.

Fair play to the owner it isn’t easy for a start up in this game and he’s created a real buzz around the brand via social media. Seems to be targeting newcomers to the sport and the types of anglers that enjoy fishing these carp puddles like todber as has already been said.

Personally wouldn’t be a bait id use but it’s nice to see a new company doing well and making some waves.

Mate you're not a great example for a baits track record, you've fished Digger Lakes, again see post 3.

No one said you had to have high profile anglers use it but you can tell a lot by a bait company when there team looks like they have been fishing two minutes and don’t seem to have a clue with what they are doing,

I have seen it first hand and it doesn’t even compare to other baits, just seem very cheap thats all. Might be decent bait just not for me would rather stick to what I use

Been using it for about a year can't fault it caught fish here and France including lake record
You don't need to pay a high profile angler to use your bait to make it good
Plenty of fish getting caught on it don't know why people are putting it down when they haven't even used it

I saw a short of them on YouTube today at the carp show this week (I think) and they were doing silly dances and then all the do is advertise the bait in YouTube they don’t really go in depth of rigs and tactics like maybe mainline,dna etc.
Just a side not watched the dna one last night premiered at 6pm so watched it before the fa cup match with my home team,must say really good video at buzzard valley.
