I use a boillie on the hair with a little bit of pellet mash wrapped around it and a bit of pellet mash wrapped around the lead.

The pellets i use for my mash are Teme Severn Mini Mix pellets, there are several type of pellet within the mix, once scalded they produce a good mash with plenty of different smells and flavours leaking out and a healthy flow of 'bits' flowing down the current. I dont find the need to add anything else to the mash although i do occasionally mix a few boillies and a few larger pellets in with it just to add a bit more attraction.

Are pellets that much different too each other?, i was once told that there are only a few pellet manufacturers that pretty much supply all the bait company's with pellets only they are in different bags.................not sure how true that is but it makes some sort of sense.

I have found some brands of elips hard to find recently (low on stock etc) and on asking questions, was told that its something to do with how they are produced is becoming increasingly difficult (I think the cost not the process)... So expect a price rise next season.

Hi All

I will always have a pot of elipse in the bag. Was out yesterday and the day before and only managed chub on my boilie, I then swapped to a single large elipse and 5minutes later the rod wrapped around and a barbel had taken it.

Great bait.

"Regular users may notice that this season Elips Pellets are slightly lighter in colour. This is because the fishmeal used in the production is a natural ingredient and due to global fishing quotas contains a higher percentage of white fish than in previous years. The oil content remains unchanged but the slight difference in colour is unfortunately unavoidable. This in no way affects the quality of the pellet which continues to catch fish after fish. "

Just coppied this from Hinders site ;) It will still catch you fish after fish Nige :lol:
