Last couple of times out, on the advice of the local tackle shop guy who fishes the same water I have used a 50/50 mix of Dynamite Baits Swim Stim Betaine Green and Sensas Carp Method Feeder.
It works on a Method or in a Cage Feeder and seems to work a treat.
To this i add some samples of whatever I have on he hook.

l dont think it makes a great deal of difference on most commercials as they get every type and combination of groundbaits that you could imagine going in day after day. l think you would be better of searching for something different to use as a hook bait.

Sensas Method is good. Sensas also do 'Ready to USe' bags, you don't have to add water and mix, just open the bag and use.

i like the sound of ready to use bags where do ya get them?[:T]

My local tackle shop has them but I don't use it. Why pay extra for someone to add water for you?

Hi dcdd1
I only use the ready made ground baits as paste bases
I have a sack brown crumb a bag of red crumb bags of crushes hemp micro pellets and ground pellet and make up a mix for where and how I intend to fish I also carry micros and crumb in the car as a standby
It is much cheaper and for me more convenant to buy in bulk to me 3:99 for a kilo is over the top but I am a tight git )
