baitbox

#1 Post by MC »

a tackle shop close to me has started to stock baitbox frozen bait, he has sandeel, mackeral, bluey's, peeler crab, smelts and razor fish, he also has squid and frozen black lug. I know the black lug is good as i have used it before, but for the baitbox stuff is it any good, mainly the peelers and razorfish?

any experience i have had with baitbox hasnt been good... usually only get sandeel which is never the best.. whether its down to the way they were transported or the way the shop stores them they seem to be a little on the mushy side...

stay away from the peelers!! they cost around 7 euro and ive never caught anything on them.
species for 2009 (42)
species for 2010 (27)
species for 2011 (12)
species for 2012 (8)
[i][b][color=#0000BF] best advice for catching species is girls dont like fishing and its hard to catch fish when you sell all your gear'[/color][/b][/i]
