Pretty sure cherry carp do frozen baits nowadays?
Cyborx isn’t plugging them at all. Seems like you’re the one turning on anyone who has a different opinion than you. There was a member like you a while ago that was 300x worse tbh, don’t end up like him and his mates who joined to screenshot evidence of slander 😂😂
probably just tidy this thread up now mods and lock it off. It’s run it’s course

well well, NOW who is running down baits that he knows naff all about?
solar knock off? your showing your ignorance there buddy, the same team are making cherry's baits as were when they were 'partnered' with solar, the break up was all about the mark up that solar wanted to add and that you can take to the bank, i did quite an in depth look as to the why's and whatfor's for over 12 months before taking a leap of faith.
as to the second bit of your statement, and "quoting out of context", i have made precisely two posts (not counting this one) and in neither one did i mention "getting heated", dont start out playing by your own rulebook cos "here be dragons" as they say
i know your not CM cos your not in the same league but i would lay bets on you being a reincarnation of 'the carphauler' though.

cyborx got a reaction from commonly in Shelf life boilies
my opinion is that Cell and sticky manilla are both absolute cack, i used them both for over a season and my catch rate went right down.
but that coming from someone who is only bothered what a bait will do and not what a bait contains so dont jump down my throat eh!!
IMO cherrycarp baits are doing the thing at the mo so are the number one bait for me

cyborx got a reaction from yonny in Unhooking hooks
shame, i was getting into this topic, for what its worth i use both forceps and fingers.
fingers to roll out a hook that is nicely in the lips and forceps for that rogue hook that gets taken a little to far back to get a thumb and finger on comfortably.
there is a genuine reason for both (imo) and a time for both to come into their own.
some people just wont be told tho, fyi my EXCLUSIVE venue does not insist on the use of forceps but waders? yes, for a good reason tho i would say that some of the more ridiculous rules come about thru personal preference of the more influential committee members playing God

You taking your tablets this morning Dez
Dont believe Vic stated what his ideal protein level is, I would guess its not above 50% as carp can only utilise around 38% in one passing, its not about protein % any way it about how well the fish can utilise the protein in a given product.
No one mentioned halibut pellets
Its on the BAG!!!, lab analysis can tell exactly whats in a given product. oh and Vic's lab used to be at Sparsholt College , before calling someone out do your ground work

If speaking frankly about a company on the internet was prosecute-able Fairbrass would have all our stuff at his house.

cyborx reacted to The_Viking_Angler in River Thames.
I really don't have time for people who get annoyed by people publishing a decent catch, yes it attracts plenty of national attention in the angling world but so what? Its all part and parcel of fishing. Yes there'll be a good chance of more people on that bit of river now but that's just one challenge that makes us decent anglers.
If i catch a 50lb carp from the river lea tomorrow, i'll have a simple choice, keep it quiet and only tell a select few or i could let the magazines know and have my "15 minutes of fame" so to speak, i shouldn't be bashed for whatever choice i make because i can guarantee that it'll upset someone whichever choice i make.
