Well done on the Wye double by the way!

Not 100%, but some EO from bait comapnies are not 100% pure and have been cut with Grape seed oil or it's like. It's why sometimes you see stupidly high inclusion levels.

If making up a paste I usually only make a 2 egg mix. When I was messing about with different labels a couple of winters ago I would add 1 drop of EO to this (would probably have used less, but it's pretty difficult to split a drop and I didn't want to make a bigger mix ). A 2 egg mix of Hi-Nu-Val with 1 drop of EO worked for me from the off just... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Severn Wanderer) http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/sreply/143029 Tue, 10 Oct 2006 12:10:20 GMT http://barbelfishingworld.yuku.com/reply/143028/t/Essential-Oils-inclusion-levels-.html#reply-143028
If I want to up it as just high attract, 4 drops an egg.

Using it for paste for chubbing last couple of winters, I used 15-20drops per egg those pesky barbel liked it to though

Been using it for a couple of years now at a very low level. Ok, it doesn`t go into hookbaits as I don`t bother making them but I`ll use it in groundbait.

When it goes into boilies for the carp its at the rate of 1 drop per pound. Strong stuff but very, very effective.

Yes, I concur - the oils Stayner was recommending were from aromatherapy outlets. I had a go with the angelica he raves about - it smelt right and I was amazed when it didn't work right away. I'll have to give it a more thorough testing soon.

a great tip i had from this site was not to buy them (EO`s) from fishing bait suppliers and instead to use aromatherapy outlets, when this is the case and i do not have a manufacturers guidline to work to, i err on the side of caution and do not use it at above the one drop per egg rule,

I think from memory he was suggesting one drop per four egg mix for boilies but stand to be corrected.

Archie Bradocks on Essential Oils:

Essential oils are the most underrated and misunderstood bait enhancers in carp fishing, and the usual few drops suggested are far too low.
