Meatballs

[ExeAngler]

Anyone had much success with Meatballs. I have seen John Bailey using them for Barbel but do they work for other species? I used to use sausages as a bait when I was a kid and had Carp up to 7 or 8 pound. That was in the early 80s in a old farm pond.

Chub love meatballs too. I've seen them take them two at a time. Carp too have a liking and you don't always need a whole one on the hook

I was looking for some the other day in the Supermarket - in fact any tinned meat - and found it hard to find much of a selection at all! Tesco, Waitrose, Co-op, Sainsbury, etc.

Where do you get yours?

[Dave Burr]

I've always managed to find them in supermarkets but also and lidl do cheaper varieties. The chicken meatballs are firmer and easier to get on with.

I was thinking more for the barbel......

Ohh, sorry thought you was offering Sunday lunch
Seriously though you need something that gives off loads of flavour/scent, garlic, chilly, blue cheese??

May just knock up some garlic and Stilton pork meat balls then...

Campbell's meatballs are a great bait but just disgusting to the touch, make sure you have a baiting needle!
