Thanks mate. Much appreciated.😁😁

I do the same and u can make a haze goo with it with glycerine and corn flour

@@magpies77what kind of proportions are you using of the three elements?

Thanks mate.

Thanks mate. Definitely worth considering.

Thanks Peter. Worcestershire Sauce is definitely worth a try mate.

Definitely correct there mate.

Give us some examples?

​@@russelljones1718 I can give you one. Groundbait itself. At one time, all groundbait was, was just breadcrumb, either brown or white. Then came all the colours, flavours and "continental" mixes hit the shelves that smelled like they belonged in a cake tin, not to mention the vastly increased price tag, lol.😉 I grew up in Australia and started fishing there. 30 pound hand lines with hooks the size of your thumb and a big weight to hold bottom. Usually fishing shrimp for yellowbelly,( golden perch) and worms at night for catfish. I'd never heard of groundbait and it wasn't used by anyone. Then I moved to England at 17 where I first saw waggler fishing with fine lines, small hooks etc....and breadcrumb groundbait. And so I started to use it. After fishing for nearly 40 years I don't anymore and haven't for quite some time. And I catch just as many fish without it as I ever did using it. Groundbait can kill a swim dead, particularly if you want to catch multiple species from it. One may like it, where the other species don't! All I do now, is a full pouch of maggots on arrival, then take my time tackling up. After selecting my float etc....I plumb the depth, stick a maggot or two on the hook and then it's 10-20 maggots loose fed around the float and I usually get my first bite, (small roach, rudd, perch or skimmer bream) within the first five to ten seconds. Then it's little and often as the session continues. After a while the bigger fish will move in,(tench, proper bream and big roach, rudd and perch). I guarantee you groundbait of any kind would have deterred a couple of those species from feeding, thus reducing the catch rate. Basic food items,(maggots, worms etc..) end up in the water all the time in nature, where as clouds of breadcrumbs with flavourings, colours etc....do not. I'll never use groundbait or "flavourings" again.

@@russelljones1718 One example. Boilies to me are to catch the fishermen, Although they do catch fish .I have fished next to anglers using boilies which I was using luncheon meat with supermarket additives and I happened to catch more fish ,on more than one occasion. So that to me speaks for itself. Keeping it simple is the best way to catch for me ,and cheaper.

​@@mrskint55yeah on another day the boilie may catch more .

I already have the sweet chilli and oyster sauce to test next, but thanks for the additional ideas mate. It looks like I might be spending a lot more time with the testing tank.👍👍

I use peach tea and custard powder in my boilies they work great

@@FishingwithDen, coconut milk is good too, a lot of the pre made Chinese sauces are very good, hoisin and garlic, spicy black bean sauce, tom yum sauce etc, Thai fish sauce, sriracha sauce, a mate of mine used to lightly coat his dog mixer’s with supermarket hemp oil, I’ve also used desiccated coconut in seed mixtures for spod mixes, as I was using coconut and tiger nut meal boilies, also powdered soup mixes too for a savory powder, ice cream syrups which are often fructose based so great fruit sugars etc 👍 But for hookbait glugs especially fruit hookbaits like brite pop up’s or plastic/rubber corn and maize then the double strength fruit juice I mentioned on previous post has done me the best results, probably because MOST of the glugs specifically made for angling are aroma( smell based ) and the fruit squash is both taste and smell appealing.

@@technomickdocumentalist2495 Very informative Mick. Thanks.

Thanks John.😁😁

Thanks John. I did try to use some in a test groundbait mix, but it was very sticky. I probably used too much of it.

I use all sorts of glug den, but only put a tiny smear on the method

@@richardtuxford1812 I really must sneak up behind you at the next match mate. I can steal your secrets!😎😎

@@FishingwithDen 😅 given the steep banks on our local I fear your may struggle with the discrete approach

@@richardtuxford1812 You'll just have to take pity on an old codger then Richard🧓🧓😎😎

That seems to be the general consensus Andrew.

Thanks Dave. As with a lot of things in fishing, if they make it, and make it expensive, it will catch a lot more anglers than fish.😁😁

WON'T CATCH ME OUT MATE I'M TO TIGHT😊

@@davetomlin8692 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Keep vids coming mate hope you're heath OK all the best

@@davetomlin8692 I'm all good now Dave. Thanks mate.👍👍

I didn't see his back.😂 j/k mate.🤣

Thanks Clive.😁😁👍👍

I'm sure they are great Mikey, but I don't think I will use them I'm afraid. They are guaranteed to attract hordes of Eels where I live mate.😁😁

@@FishingwithDen Corr yeah I bet mate, enjoyed the vid keep it up😊👍🏼

So you're in Australia then Peter? Cancel that. I just got your email.

Il be happy with a hours play today

@@geoff738only one wicket down today Geoff ,but a big one,hopefully a full day tomorrow should see us home ,fingers well and truly xxxxxxxx🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞,nice to see you back Den hope everything ok

@@Royboy50 yes fingers crossed and toes for tomorrow 🤞 it’s been a great series

It looks like I missed quite a few items Ovidiu. 😁😁👍👍

I just wish we could get Expander pellets down here mate.

Thanks Pete. Interesting point mate. I imagine we must have Home Brew shops down here, but I've never seen one.😁😁

@@FishingwithDen I am down here, in Brisbane. I'm talking about the shops that sell beer making supplies.

@@petefletcher2993 I just drink it Pete. My days of making it are long gone. But thanks I'll take a look.😂👍

Thanks mate.😁😁👍👍

Thanks mate. That's an interesting point about the pineapple.

Thanks Barbara.

Hi mate. Thanks very much.

Unfortunately, we can't buy those products down here. The only way to get get them would be to try to order them online. The shipping would cost a fortune and they might get impounded at Customs I'm afraid.

@@FishingwithDen That's a shame. I've found that the Scopex in particular is a very good fish attractant. A bottle last a long time as you only need a couple of squirts in your pellets/groundbait. Seems to that a big tackle company should start selling their products in Australia. Although maybe coarse fishing isn't as popular over there as it is in the UK. How's the weather over there? It's 24th of July and having had June heatwaves, we seem to have entered a Monsoon season over here, we've even got flood warnings!

@@CB-xr1eg To give you an idea of the popularity of Coarse Fishing down here, it might help to learn that I don't know of another Coarse angler anywhere within miles of me. Lol. As for the weather, we are still having frosts and rain. I'll be glad when its September and it starts to become pleasantly warm.

@@FishingwithDen I guess that means that you are unique Den👍 You're heading into Spring and it feels as though we're heading towards Autumn even though it's still July.

I think Bovril might be something I will try mate. thank you.

@@FishingwithDen Good luck with it then! I think it would work as a groundbait additive too.

@@BoingBB You should've put "need shooting" rather than "they're spreading it too thickly".lol

@@majmat 🤣🤣

Did you love 'em or hate 'em?🤔

Thanks Russell. Lots of 'food for thought' there mate. 👍👍😁😁

Thanks Phill. I think there must be something wrong with people who love Marmite. It was one of the most disgusting tastes I've ever had.😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@FishingwithDen I have always been a bit odd?

@@Offcut55 LOL> Me too mate.👍👍

I remember buying Aniseed Essence at my local tackle shop in the 70s too.

Thanks Danny.👍👍😁😁

Thanks John.

Thanks Ralf.😁😁

At the time I did this video I had only given it a very quick try, but I will be doing a full video on fishing with it in the next couple of weeks.

I agree Scott. Unfortunately, down here, its a recipe to get inundated with Eels and Turtles mate.😁😁👍👍

@@FishingwithDen ohhhh never that doesn't sound good. I had a match the other day down In Gloucestershire, I had 30 pound of the slippery things 🤢🤢🤢🤢

@@scottpardoe6349 Yuk!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Dunno Gerald. I can't stand any of them mate.🤣🤣👍👍

Yep. Its on the list Frank. Thanks for the heads up.👍👍😁😁

Unfortunately, we are unlikely to be able to get them down here and the cost for shipping is prohibitive.

@@FishingwithDen the red dyed mollases looks brilliant carp have a very sweet tooth looks like the best bet 😍

@@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES I agree. I had a very quick try with it for about 45 minutes and its what I'm going to use on the full trial of next weeks product.

@@FishingwithDen perfect

Does anyone know if molasses would be pva friendly?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I'm not sure which is worse Robert.

Hi Andy. I agree groundbaits and additives are very expensive, but at least you have the opportunity to buy them in the UK. 🤣 Down here we have to make our own, so my groundbait also uses the ingredients you mentioned. The only difference is that instead of buying Layers Mash, I buy Chicken Layer Pellets. It's the same stuff, just in a different form). I too use a coffee grinder to turn them into a fine mix. The only other thing I do is add equal parts of white breadcrumbs from the Supermarket to get a very versatile groundbait mix. I have produced a couple of videos on the subject. Here's the link to the latest one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rNqRl6dnx8XUmnk.html

For the most part, I agree with you George. As you say, if you put your bait where the fish are, you have a chance to catch them. Please watch this weeks video on the new Flavour Feeder though. Here's the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLqcecefut2vY58.html What I am experimenting with by using this new feeder, is an attempt to bring the fish into a more concentrated area using a smell and a flavour, but not actually feeding them. It is designed for use in Winter when the fish are eating very little.

Thanks Bob.
