SonuBaits Hemp "N" Hookbaits

When SonuBaits showed this new idea in prepared particle baits off at the Tackle & Guns 2009 show, there was a lot of interest from both the Carp and Specialist anglers.

SonuBaits have realised that anglers do not want to carry around large amounts of particle hookbaits, and have resolved this by combining Hemp and the hookbaits in one tin!
