Evening all,

In my bait bin I have unearthed the following bits and pieces....Going to turn them into boilies/paste for the up-coming Barbel season and after ideas for a recipe that might work ;)

Meat meal
Cheese powder
Blood meal
Soya
Semolina

JB Baits Barbel Search 4 flavouring

I thought the following:

8oz meat meal
6oz semolina
6oz soya
2oz cheese powder
2 oz Blood meal
3mm Barbel Search 4
6 eggs

What do you reckon??

What was in your bait bin sounds like my old school dinners from years back!!

(Given up making my own after disastrous results last season...in the kitchen and on the bank. Will let the "pro's" at bait making answer this one... you know who you are!!)

Made up a couple of pounds of bait using the ingredients....

....on advise I cut the blood meal down to 1 oz and upped the cheese to 3 ozs ;) ;)

Baits rolled really well and have come out in a lovely dark brown colour with a subtle smell of the cheese and BS4....meeting up with a few mates down on the Teme this evening for a wander and have kept a bit of the paste back to see the Barbel's reaction to them?

Will let you know :)

Well, several trips into the season and I thought I'd give a bit of an update on the bait....

....they bloody well work !!!!

Used in conjunction with scalded pellet in a feeder I've had Barbel and/or Chub on every trip out so far :D :D
