blanksalot Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 I'm sure we've all walked around tackle shops opening tubs of pop ups and sniffing away like the boilie junkies we are I've definitely got a sweet tooth for bait, i mean who in their right mind could like those stinking fishy squid combos So best smell out there ? Toughie, original tutti must be up there, and pineapple too, live system as well, but i've just discovered the dynamite red amo.. oh my lord, what a smell, i'm in love, do they make aftershave in this I want to be buried with a bag Over to you. nealjt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grangemilky Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 The smell of robin red gets me every time. It instantly transports your back to the first tackle shop you went in when you were a kid. FISHMANDAN_ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nealjt Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Live system or scopex!! Why do bait shops all have the same smell?? And why do Ford's all smell the same? ! ? On the other hand. Worst smell recently is ccmoore soaked halibut sticks..... (I think they're called sticks cause the stench stowmarketcks to everything!!) Although, I've not encountered a bottle of bryric acid yet though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpbell Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Try perfection ground bait website If you don't mind me asking, do you use their boilies? I'm looking for something a bit different to the shop stock freezer baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpbell Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 What about rolling your own? It is something I have been considering, but could turn into a expensive and time consuming mistake, I’d go with the Mainline Grange if I make my own, seems easy enough when you read the instructions. Its cooking them in the kitchen that could be a problem, having a burco boiler in the back yard would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for something a bit different to the shop stock freezer baits. No, i just stumbled across their site looking for chocolate orange My last buy was from eclipse baits, on their site go to eurostar/create your own. you create the recipe, they roll it for you. £55 for 10kg posted. done ok with mine so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpbell Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Then again I could set a electric steamer outside, I'd only be doing a lb or two each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalthegooner Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Then again I could set a electric steamer outside, I'd only be doing a lb or two each time. For that small amount of bait, use a chip pan on the cooker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smufter Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) The coconut boilies my mate rolls for me smell superb. When I first got them, my Missus nicked half a dozen and put them in a little pot in the front room as air fresheners they were that nice!! I have often been tempted to have a nibble on them but stop myself just in time. He also makes some crab boilies that smell like a rancid pair of damp socks that have been sitting in the bottom of your tackle bag for 6 months. They are vile, I don't think I've smelt anything quite as bad, but the fish seem to like them. The Missus isn't happy when I bring a bag of those home....

newmarket Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Snap! Did you mix the flavours up yourself Dal? The site blanks suggested sells a chocolate orange but im not sure whether its the same stuff . Jaffa cake sounds much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules007 Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 for me it has to be "the source", it smells proper carp bait, tastes like poo though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
