4 of those would fit quite well in a 17ltr shame I've already committed but might help someone else

https://groceries.asda.com/product/storage-containers/smart-seal-food-storer-2-7-l-tall/1000304692698 That's a bit better priced isn't it

Blimey they would fit well, would be cheaper to buy korda though 😯

Seeing the price of food nowadays though, probably cheaper to buy empty tubs 😯

And then it was done. Just bought a 14 piece set hopefully they will fit and should be 2 buckets worth with less wasted space the bottom left pic should all fit in one bucket 🤞

I can't seem to find a set of tubs that are actually better or as good as the korda tubs to be fair to them there ones have a 3ltr capacity and 4 fit perfectly in a bucket, having seen the B & m ones in action they are 1.8ltr and leave a big area of wasted bucket space. They may be half the price but possibly half as effective too which is a bit of a shame. I'm not beaten yet though these are just teething issues 😁

Got my bits from AA baits today had a sniff and dribbled some minamino on some pop ups to see what happens, the garlic booster smells good too, hopefully will get some time to make some wafters soon.

I love trying to make the house more organised, never seem to get there though but I could see the appeal in sneaking a few into the cupboards while no one is looking 😁

I could always leave another spare in the car though 😂 I mainly only do short sessions so running out would probably be a rare occasion, I quite like the fact I could just do a bit of prep every couple of months, and always have decent fresh particle, and probably buy less but be fussier and more precise with it. I also think it would be good for hopper loading, shake of that, shake of that, shake of that, loaded and awaaay 😯

Is this idea a little bit clever ? I've had time to think this week, and I saw a post on fb about B & M doing a rip off korda kontainers being a couple of quid cheaper, fast forward to now and my brain has gone full throttle and after a bit of searching on the Internet, I've found a set of tubs that will also fit 17l buckets in 3 or so sizes and in bulk (16 or 24 tubs) I thought I could use them to freeze prepped particles in, small ones for tigers, medium for maize or other bigger items and large for a mix of seeds for the base of the spod mix I would also use a large one for boilies and another for chops and probably one for pellets, I've noticed a bit lately I seem to carry too many buckets regularly loading 4 or 5 into the car, not too bad if I can drive to the swim but would be nice to reduce that to 1or 2 but it would also be a good way to have easy grab pre prepped particles, I also think this may make me use less bait because all too often I bring loads home or I've possibly used too much 😂 What do you think?

Peach and garlic works quite well together I've found

I watched that whilst at work yesterday, was a couple of very enjoyable tea breaks 👍

Thanks for that. it is coming from AA baits who I haven't ever used before but seem to have been around for a while. So hopefully it will be fresher than a shop bought one. But something to bear in mind 👍

Just taken the plunge and bought some bits and bobs to make some wafters 😯 Fluoro pink wafter mix Minamino Banoffee flavour Premium attract+ powder mix Liquid preservative Active CSL (freebie) I also have a few other bits I may or may not use like a butterscotch sweetener, milk B, liver powder, Is that a decent start? I am thinking top 5 ingredients at recommended levels to start and maybe milk B + to make it smell deliciously creamy 😲😍 How does that sound for starters?

They won't know what hit em💪

No thanks 😂 I've also got some black shiny pinies, can't help thinking these will be good, I'm going to be getting a little Creative with some hookbaits as I've got some powders and glug pots incoming too. Liver, Krill and a nut mix powder, I just need to find a couple of liquids and it will be full on nutty professor at Elmo towers 😂

Just added a wintery twist to some pink squid 2t pop ups, white squid supreme and moonshine goo, so kind of like a whisky squid innit 😲😎

I've got the xl granite edition one, I've had a smaller one before, I like the extra girth of the XL though a much better all rounder

Rare Clonker as Wilson would say, came in with a weed berg singing eye of the tigers.

My thought of the day, why did I forget my hookbait bucket, I've had to use bottom baits with plastic an old dry wafter and a corked double tiger nut, worst thing to forget ever, I am also using leftover particles from the social it has white stuff on it and smells like moonshine. Going well so far.

Casting is gonna have to wait the 6 wrap kid is in town, I know boring but you ain't gonna catch if you ain't on em, and I have seen some signs. I did try all fingers abive the reel though, even at short range it felt pretty decent, one to continue with

I've been using 0.40mm Gardner gt80+ but I've recently switched to a 0.37mm katran line which seems to have helped, due to the weed and stuff I can't really go a lot thinner so not ideal casting line but an improvement and it seems to have helped, leads 3.5oz or 4oz dumpy distance on leadclips usually

I'm going today now so I will let you know how I get on, 👍

I have watched some of his vids and they do seem to help tbh, next thing I need to learn to adjust is my hands I need to put one more finger the front side of the reel, I've enquired about going today, my boat isn't charged so I may just go manual for once and use the spod/leading rod to the max 😲

At least it is not just me, I can just about get them100yds with no shock leader maybe I Do need some bigger rods 😂
