elmoputney Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 We've been to smyths toy superstore /angling direct this morning 2 rainbow high dolls and an advanta sleeping bag ccx4 season, my cyprinus one has seen better days and it's heavy I already have a cover that I use mainly in the warmer months but thought its going to soon be time to want a bag also , looks alright for £67 peachskin and it has a shiny inner rather than fleece that I always seem to get stuck in 4 season and it only weighs 3kg my cyprinus weighed an actual tonne.

So 2ml of shellfish sense appeal, 2ml of original sense appeal, 15ml of salmon oil, cream palatant, robin red and six eggs have produced a lovely firm bait which a savoury, spicy aroma with a note of shellfish. They certainly smell good, they have a totally different smell to previous mixes I’ve made up, yet on the aminos base I’ve got so much faith in. I crumbled up a few baits into the garden pond and the carp went mad for it, so that’s a good start I suppose!

My mate will be gutted as he has no place/time to roll his own. I'll have to call Tony I guess and find out straight from the horses mouth as it were.

ouchthathurt Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 If you go on the premier website, he’s put a notice on the home page, he’s still doing boilie making ingredients, but he’s stopped rolling bait. He says it’s time to retire. @emmcee how did you find the superaminos? I guess as you used it for 12yrs, you rated it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you zoom in, you can see the rear body odlf the 45 crosscast pushes right back into the rear pocket, but the Vader X Spod reel is bang on, so something along that size I'm thinking.....XTB 10,000...Uktegra 5500 ??
