I bye large sacks of 8mm this summer of course pellet. been grinding down them with a third of brown crumb which is very cheap from tackle shop for me feeder and paste rigs on the tip, been working a treat!

[justin case]

Jollies fine brown crumb its around 10 to 15 quid a sack same as the white

you cant get much cheaper than that, and 20 years ago thats all we had, it worked then

Add some fine fishmeal and you have whats in a lot of the off the shelf packets

Collect all spare slices of bread leave for a day or two, liquiidize,pop in plastic bag,expell all the air and freeze till fishing session. You can cup in or use very small balls on a little and often basis.
Then get four slices of medium white bread the cheapest poss cut off the.
crusts and roll with a rolling pin, put into plastic bags till the session then use punches in various sizes, if you are targeting bigger fish dont be frightened to use say two 8mm pellets of bread on hook

Dont let the rolled bread go dry during the fishing session

Have a little bit of patience, confidence and care and hey presto you will have discovered the most cheapest,, deadliest, most effiecent groundbait and hook bait known to man.

Easy answer - stop buying it from expensive shops, search your local animal feed suppliers and a sack of brown should be about £13 - £15, if you mean bagged up stuff such as dynamite / van den eynde etc search about, shop stuff at £4 a bag can easily be found at £2.50 in the right places
