My review has taken two years to put together to give an honest, long term assessment and it started on a windblown winter’s day on a Felixstowe beach in Suffolk in search of cod. Not only is the sea fraternity catered for but also the carp and coarse angler can enjoy its distinctive aroma. Yes, it does have a strong smell, but actually it is not unpleasant.

They looked into the environment of fish and the favoured food that they feed on. The concept started with the Stinky Stuff team breaking down those everyday baits that we use and finding the core amino acids from baits that were attracting fish and turning it into a powerful concentrate. This product has been around for a number of years now and is catching on in all branches of fresh and saltwater angling.

Having tested this product over that time period I am confident to report back on the product and to overcome the distinctive pungent aroma that gives it its name.
