๐Ÿ˜‚ I've been using that since it came out, and the heavy cray feeder mix, the Carp love it...along with all other species on the feeder ๐Ÿ‘
I used to use the BAF fish, used a lot of DNA S7 hydro, still got 4 or 5, on the wheat base as is the Cray, used the wheat too..

Last 2 years I picked up some of the Sticky hydros when they were being cleared, got to say I liked them, espesh the Sardine. I think Sardine is often overlooked, being a bit older the meal has a special place in my heart from early days making bait.

Thanks one and all ๐Ÿ‘

Put a order in with AA Baits today, and DNA...and Haiths, and still have more to get, not cheap this feeding fish thing!
Trying AAB's ocean + liquid, it sounds ideal. Also trying something from 20 years ago involving fosfor, taking me down memory lane ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The Salmigo from Bacarel is also really good. The price isn't on the AAbaits level or some of the deals you get on the above squid or shrimp from Bacarel.

Really thick, sticky.... quite a few applications - fantastic as a glue for culturing hookbaits for example.

Bacarel Express, currently using the Shrimp in my homemade fishmeal bait, have used the Squid as well.

Many thanks mate ๐Ÿ‘

I'm guessing the raspberry is fosfor (multimino). How odd re the liver, I'd of expected it paired to say a nutramino type carrier, if not wholly liver๐Ÿค”
If the megamino contains both a fosfor (heavy) and a nutramino type (lighter) that's a great start, similar to the old Nutrabaits bait soak complexes!

The liquid liver smells just like you'd expect liquid liver to smell. It's really good stuff
Liver amino smells of raspberry, it's nothing unusual

I use lots of AA Baitsโ€™ stuff, but havenโ€™t used the Ocean Plus liquid, although I do like the sound of it!
Iโ€™ve got a bottle of Megamino which Iโ€™ve used a bit of and caught with baits containing it. I must admit I was hoping it would have a savoury smell to it, but was a bit disappointed when I unscrewed the lid and it smelled exactly like Minamino, with the background raspberry aroma. Their Liver Amino also smells of raspberry! Not sure what their Liquid Liver (pharmaceutical grade) smells like? I like the sound of it, but loath to spend 17 quid odd on another bottle of raspberry amino lol. If anyone knows if it smells savoury, please let me know.
Back to the Megamino, Iโ€™ve used it in a Robin Red Fishmeal (500g), with 20ml Nutrabaits Trigga Ice liquid food, 10ml Megamino, 2ml JB Ala Salar and caught. After rolling, boiling, freezing and defrosting, the raspberry background to the Megamino overpowers everything else in the mix!

Thanks for the feedback mate, much appreciated, sounds good ๐Ÿ‘
I used to use them a lot in the old days, was it Alan the owner, can't remember, I worked in Runcorn at the time so it was handy, but I haven't used them so much since they changed ownership. I did buy some stuff in 2024, including trying the Roasted Peanut Extract, but tbh I prefer the CC Moore RNE.
Big fan of Sardine, both as meal and hydro, seems to be harder to get hold of the hydro from a quick look around!

I've used a few aa baits hydros, fish, calanus, liver, squid. All decent and I'd recommend them all. Every bottle I've received from them has been the same as previous batches too, so very consistent. Unlike baf when they sold to the public, their stuff could vary massively

I'm in need of some hydros, probably towards the 5ltr mark, mixed, or I'll mix myself. On a quick look around has anyone got any experience of AA Baits Ocean+liquid, or any of their hydros for that matter, or might you have any other supplier option that aren't too expensive?

EDIT, looking at the megamino too, any one used it?
