  1. The place i get my bait from don't like you glugging the frozen baits, maybe a bit of salmon oil or something natural but they say the bait works best when fished as is, glugs and powders are for hook baits, i have a tub of wafters and pop ups that have been in the fridge for over a year getting regular top ups of GLM powder and salmon oil on the pop ups and GLM with Krill hydro on the wafters, pungent is an understatement they will about ready by next month. It's a bit like asking for salt in a restaurant lol.

    Not sure what shops you have near you but in art and craft shops around here you can by a large bag of large polystyrene balls for very little cost. Shove a bamboo barbeque skewer though, paint it black and you have an expendable marker float.

    This is going to sound ridiculous but the best colour for a marker float is black. As part of my job, I used to plot the movement of water currents by putting out markers and following them. A black flag was always the easiest to find. If you visit a fishing port you will see that the most common marker flag used for crab and lobster pots is black.

  5. This^^^^^ Glycerine based glugs offer almost nothing in any way to a bait imo.

  6. Get some vegetable glycerin from a vape type shop in proper sized amonts don't bother with those little bottles, I've watched a lot of those vids definately worth having a play, When you make vape liquids though you have to steep them for a little while so may be best with goo too to leave in a dark cupboard for a Month Or you could go to British aqua feed and get some hydro liquid I believe they do a nut based one now

    Spawning

    Quite ironic really , its not a problem to fish for Pregnant fish, fat footballs ,rolled around on a mat then weighed and photographed for a PB , but as soon as they spawn its a no no , your spawn of Satin if you do whilst spawning. Doesnt seem to apply to France,even the owners wont close and refund you , when you spend hundreds of pounds for a holiday , the times I have read , The fish were spawning the time we were their only caught a few . they never packed up and came home . Spawning fish dont eat whilst they are doing it ,but are hungry afterwards .
