What do you use for your fishing .

The summer months I use squid and scopex. I have found this to be a productive bait and during the winter found Active 8 or maple 8

Well, carping wise I started out with seafood blend and blue cheese as my favourite flavours. Then I went through a Tropicana and maple syrup stage ... but hated the way they made my frozen peas taste. (And yes, I realise I'm showing my age...! I used to think Rod Hutchinson was God too and read everything he ever wrote about bait)

These days I don't mind so much what flavour I use ... we use quite a lot of halibut pellets so I tend towards meaty, spicy or fishy flavours.

I enjoy pike fishing too but .... girly moment coming up....... I won't live bait. If they won't take a sardine , a smelt or a lure then they can stay in the water as far as I'm concerned! Very Happy

Shop bought boilies I have always found tutti frutti,pineapple and white choc productive,but recently I have been getting my boilies from Frank at Catcherbaits,they are brilliant and at a decent/realistic price, so far I have tried Crab'n'Fruit, Tigernut'n'nMaple and Scopex Squid. Homemades it's Nut and Chilli,regards Trev.
