Fabsil or Fabsil Gold , gold is more expensive I use ordinary Fabsil good for a couple of seasons .

I had the same problem..bought second hand bivvy and like always thought to waterproof it again...i would spend on summat decent so it will last..i used fabsil from go outdoors...awsome...i poured about 2/3rd of the tin in a bowl and washed on with large sponge and let dry in the sun...looks brand new.

yep!! i reccon i have got near enough a lifetime supply and all for nothing that is a useful bit of useless info Yonny, i let one dissolve on my tongue once and wondered why it left a floury aftertaste

Boil as usual, 1.5minutes will probably get them firm enough, less if you want them softer longer if you want them harder. Some birdfoods/CLO (my preference) does have breadcrumb as part of its make up as well as seeds etc ..., birdfoods have added benefit through there natural oil content, veg protein that some of them contain plus it helps with binding as well as giving your bait a bit of texture.

Yup, a lot of the parcels delivered to my work are packed with the same, that's where I get mine from. Useless info: it's not actually PVA, it's maize/starch based. There's two types, one has a strong chemically taste (no good) and the other is the good stuff. Go through the packaging companies and you'll get hold of them for next to nothing. It's one of the highest carp-taxed items out there. A supplier to my work was offering 15 cubic ft bags for less than 15 quid.

This is a very rough guide, which won't have you spending a lot of money to get you started. 40% Blitzed Trout pellets (down to a Powder) 10% Micronized Wheat (Baileys Number 1) 20% Soya Flour 20% Semolina 10% Blitzed Bread or Birdfood if you can get some. Use eggs then add the liquidised corn until you get a bound ball, I'm a bit unsure of the inclusion rate of liquidised sweetcorn as I have never used it and other people I have asked have used either corn syrup or Nash sweet corn extract. Might be worth draining some of water off the liquidised corn you will probably get somewhere around 50ml - 100ml of it in (pure guess work)

my wife does a lot of product testing and so we get a lot of parcels delivered, (bear with me here cos here comes the best bit) some of these parcels are packed with pva nuggets and guess what!! they are multi coloured, they are just the right size (40mmx10mm), they melt off fast (last week timed to under 20 seconds) and best of all they are free, free, FREE i tell you

I woke up this morning listening to Godzilla. Which is also song by Blue Öyster Cult.
