How To Order
Ordering from this secure user-friendly site
Using the product index you can navigate this site to find the items you wish to purchase, you then just need to select the appropriate size, quantities etc before pressing the ‘Add to cart’ button. The contents of your shopping basket will then be shown and you will have an option on whether to ‘Continue Shopping’ or ‘Checkout’.
There is also a facility to remove goods from your basket (red bin icon) and to update your basket. At the checkout stage new customers will be asked to create a customer profile whilst returning customers will be asked to enter their email address and password. When either is completed you will be able to continue shopping or proceed to the checkout. When you have finished shopping you just need to follow 3 simple steps…

Making your own
The amount of anglers making their own boilies these days are becoming less and less. This is understandable considering time limitations, but for those wishing to venture out into making their own boilies, these Handy Packs definitely are the way forward because everything you need (apart from eggs!) is inside the bucket.
Making your own bait allows you to use your own 'bespoke' combination of attractors to suit your individual needs. You can also make different shapes and sizes, as well as having the option over soft, medium or hard baits, depending on boiling times, or if you wish to include additional hardeners. Further to this, many anglers find it extremely rewarding to catch fish on a bait they have made themselves.
