You Will Need

Mainline Match F1 Sweet

Mainline Match Green Supreme

18L Bucket

Multi Riddle

Step 1

Grab your Mainline Match F1 Sweet

Grab a bag of Mainline Match F1 Sweet and pour half of it into an 18L bucket.

Step 2

Grab your Mainline Match Green Supreme

Do the exact same thing with half a bag of Mainline Match Green Supreme.

Step 3

Mix them together

Once all the ingredients are in a bucket, give it a good mix by blending the two ground baits together.

Step 4

Add water

Add approximately 1.5 pints of water initially; this should adequately saturate the mix.

Step 5

Mix together, again!

Get your hands in and give it a good mix, ensuring all the ground bait has been thoroughly saturated. Then, leave it for around 15-20 minutes.

Step 6

Wait, then add more water

After 15-20 minutes have passed, the ground bait will have dried slightly. Add another half a pint of water and give it another good mix.

Step 7

Empty onto Multi Riddle

Empty the bucket of ground bait onto a Multi Riddle.

Step 8

Push through Multi Riddle

Push the ground bait through the Multi Riddle. Mikey likes to use the 4mm mesh on the riddle, giving the ground bait a nice, fluffy, yet heavy texture.

Step 9

The perfect Autumn mix

Here's the final result —a mix that will attract all species as the weather cools down!
