fred 1 Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 I tried some of those long life flavoured gents the other day. They got some kind of funky smell to them. I used them on mullet down at north haven to catch some live bait. The mullet loved them. I had little salmon trout hit them and a couple of tommies too. I used bugger all gents and the rest went home and back into the fridge for another session.I'm a fan i must admit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mully 10 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I am also a fan of them for my live bait fishing I use sheldons gents I have also been using his burley with the maggot juice the sawdust textured stuff...Ill give you a hot tip if you want gar,tommies,bream or whatever and its slow mix this with tuna oil and a bit of salt water dont be shy with the oil just add a bit of water to make it like porridge..Throw handfulls over the side or drop it down in the burley pot and you will see for yourself..once their on the bite slow down the burley they wont leave the area.

Ranger 48 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Well I've got a bit of a problem wiv em, and I'd really like to discuss this wiv someone from that Sheldon's Bait company!Longlife, sure, I had no problem, but it was the FLAVOUR which is givin me an issue.I'm not sure what it is! It's on the tip of my tongue, but I just can't quite place it! I must say though, it left quite a bitter aftertaste! Nutty? Tangy? Nope, I think Fred summed it up in a word! FUNKY!!! {SMILIES_PATH}/sad.gif Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vixen 0 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 I just bought some inthe wet mix to take away to port broughton as I wsnt sure that they would be stocked up there.

Was gunna try to con em into eating em but maybe not now..LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aarron 29 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Vixen, Make sure they dont dry out or they wont last, try to keep them wet/moist by adding water if need be! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger 48 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Vixen, go tell ya boys it's true about keeping them moist, but ya also have to keep maggots warm to make em real wriggly, and that's why they need to keep the maggots in their mouths!They'll be able to feel em gettin more wriggly on their tongues too! Just tell the boys not to swallow, and resist the urge to hiccup at all costs! {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif Quote Link to post Share on other sites
