Thanks for the suggestions.

I've given up waiting for who was going to roll for me coming back to me, so it will be something I do for myself.

Pretty simple tbh - plum, pepper and Asafoetida on a milky base is what I'll probably start with

If your going to roll your own, JB buttringer and plum is an awesome combination 👌

The best!

Sure forgotten flavours do a plum if you can get?

I imagine you're right, but I'm half way towards rolling my own but it's been a while so need to get motivated 😂😂.

Took receipt of a pot of trents damsons today so at least have something to go with for the short term

I'm sure Geoff at ABS or Gavin at poachers would be able to put together something custom for you.

Indeed 👍👍.

I've got about half a tub left so thought I'd see what else is out there and having a boilie in the same plum flavour makes the Trent baits option interesting for sure.

Trent baits do a very nice Damson (plum) cream bait for the winter months only.

Not used it myself,but hinders have the betalin and plum liquid. The betalin and black was very nice that they did/do.

Thanks for the suggestions, seems just a 'plain' plum hookbait isn't out there.

So it's looking like I'm going to have to buy a table and the bits to roll an eggs worth for myself.
