I was told if I didn't have any hemp oil, just liquidise or mush up a bit as an attractant -was told it Washes downstream in seconds like you say and gets them coming upstream looking for the actual hemp where they will hopefully hold. Could be b*llocks but that was in a conversation with someone who seemed to know what he was talking about with regards to barbel fishing the Ribble. Nige, as I'm sure you know already, hemp is full of oil and has a strong scent, don't waste your time with oils and liquidising. The stuff works fine as it is mate. There aren't any short cuts or secret baits that make for success, just simply fishing properly, at the right place and at the right time and of course a slice of luck never hurts! Sounds easy, but we are all still trying to master the combination on anything like a regular basis! If it was easy, we would all probably be doing something else!! Eddie.

Nige I save the liquid from the pan I boil my hemp in & use it to mix my groundbait with instead of water, I keep it in my bait fridge for weeks. As Dave says if you think it works then it does ! Cheers Andy

You need to bear In mind the possible quality or lack of it when you buy your hemp I just bought 5 kilo dry and it looked ok till you try cooking it soaked it for ages and still didnt split very well when boiled. I surpose If you are using it as a feed / attractor for barbel then Its not essential to have most of the grains split but well prepared split hemp looks great and Will be a great confidence booster. When I need some more I will be giving Hull particle a call looks to be quality and no messing about boiling great price you cannot go wrong and its local to me so I can pick up. Some of the giant variety grains can be very difficult to prepare apparently OK, good advice. One thing I've also been advised to do is to put a small amount of hemp in the liquidiser, and then mix it back in with the rest, and it vastly multiplies the attractant factor going down the river. (and putting 2 and 2 together, that's you on the recent BFW forum thread on this subject I guess Steve? )

(and putting 2 and 2 together, that's you on the recent BFW forum thread on this subject I guess Steve? ) Sorry Nige but you need to concentrate on your two times table and barbel bubbles If this guy on BFW Isnt me He might not be happy!! Like Rushy says we all talk bo&&rocks at times and I have been there so just think about what your posting mate. Sorry if I've caused offence in some way - not sure how - or if you've misunderstood something about my post? It's just that I noticed a Steve on BFW (Barbel Fishing world Forum) posting in an interesting thread about hemp, which coincidentally was started just 2 days before mine, and he mentioned Hull Particle being his local place, and I thought the fact that I said it was just a "guess" and my "2+2 together" comment made it clear that I was allowing for the possibility that I was wrong and making 5 ? Nothing intended by it - just a straight question asking if you were the same person, and I had no reason for asking that other than making online conversation, really! Both threads consist of well-informed people making well-informed comments, including two well-informed Steves, so not sure why you would take offence - I wouldn't take offence if someone thought I was the other 'nige' on here ... but I apologise anyway for not realising whatever it is that I should have thought about, and thanks for your helpful advice once again.
(Have I irritated people in some way by posting a lot recently, and asking a lot of questions, or something? There seems to have been something in my 'bubbles' thread which has caused a couple of people to go on the wind-up? If so, I really don't get why. Just trying to learn, and always appreciative of all the responses. And when it's quiet on here my first instinct is to start a thread asking about the stuff that's on my mind - i wish everybody would start more threads like that!)

on the other subject Nige keep posting I found nothing offensive in what you wright, we all live and learn and we all learn from our mistakes form which we learn from if you know what I mean.
if you or I or anybody didn't ask questions they would be no answers, do what you think is right and if you do something different and it works then well done you. you don't after give away all your secrets if you don't want to all best

The majority of regular posters on here have been on for years and over that time we have all got to,know each other along with our individual traits. I think I'm safe in saying that none of the regular genuine lads would ever say anything malicious or personal on an open thread. Leg pulling , wind ups , sarcasm are a different matter and I can assure you, there has always been and always will be a lot of it . . I'm probably a regular contributor to this type of f" banter " If it's not the type of banter you relate to then rest assured it is not personal , just ignore it As regards your posts , I personally think you are a great contributor. A forum is only as good as its posting members and we now seem to have a good set of 30"or so,lads who,post regular and also socialise. Keep the threads and questions coming mate , they keep the forum alive. Just ignore any responses Cabbo gives , his 12 year old daughter is a better angler than him and take Jhops detailed reports about where and how he caught fish with a pinch of salt. He's got a lcollection of photos and fishy tales as large as the British Library All the best bud Rushy
