I’m sure all the fish that we saw published in articles back in the day from Raduta were big silvery commons weren’t they? If that’s what’s in there, that’s what you’re gonna catch lol

Did it really pick out the big commons though?
Probably caught a couple and then the confirmation bias kicked in.

I could be wrong but I remember reading about Tim Paisley using Mainline Grange with Plum when he went to Lake Raduta. He reckoned it picked out the big commons. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

My mate rolls me a plum fish meal boilie. I have been thinking for a while to add some activ-8 activator. Anybody used activ -8 with plum together ?
been racking my brains on this, there was another A-8 combo, it might have been plum- talking 20-25 years ago.
That was the good thing about buying base and liquids you could customise it

I emailed them back in August when I started my last bottle of activator. They said they were expecting the next batch in November/December. Even buying 5-10 bottles at a time, you can never be sure if it’s the last lot you’re ever going to get, so I gave up and moved on for this year.

I emailed Johnson Ross and they will be receiving a big mainline delivery including all activators and base mixes in the next couple of weeks. It’s on order just waiting for delivery 👍

tbh I never bothered, plain or maple the activator @ 15-20ml worked on its own.
probably would work but I found that just caught fish and quickly when they were seeing a lot of other baits.
The old edges were 25-30% fishmeal in the base and/or Robin Red
Fishmeal base, no colour, no hydros... low level liver, squid meal and butyric acid worked rather well.

AA Baits do active CSL. You have to keep it in the fridge or it explodes lol, volatile stuff!

probably works on the low protein ingredients, much cheapness- we've been told/sold HNV and feed quality over instant baits for 40 years but Mainlines dough balls keep catching.
I've had recipes that have had the full spectrum of (higher) digestable proteins, vits and minerals, superb 'feed' but hadn't been 'bait' until bulked out.

You probably improved the profile with that, Mainline bases were not what you would call HNV, although saying that, they didn’t need to be, they just worked as a package 
Always done that if I have been rolling a popular based that others were on, twisted
Mirage baits I noticed do and activated CSL…
