Richworth Tutti Fruttis and any decent home made fish meal flavoured with zing (a flavour I got from a carbonated drinks project I was working on).

After a certain age, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you are probably dead.

Any thing like the "Pink Zing" flavour that used to be available from Geoff Kemp?

And thats my "non indicative opinion"!

Budgie I do not know pink zing so I have no idea; it has a fruity sort of smell a bit like the richworth Tutti Frutti but with a bit more citrus.

It was for a soft Drinks factory in Tanzania and I believe the flavour came from Pointings (who used to do most of the commercial carp flavours, they have since been taken over by UFL), and it was designed for the African market.

I am down to my last 200mls and i do not think i will ever get a replacement.

There was another similar flavour which I had a sample of, but it was never as succesful.

If the weather eases i will go in the shed and dig them out from my flavours box and see if I can find out more.

Geoff Kemp did two very sucsessfull "Zing" flavours- Pink Zing and Green Zing.The pink was very good when used as a "cocktail" with Cream.Quite high doses were used at 10ml Cream/5ml Pink Zing to a pound mix.Sounds like it could be the same thing.Worked best with milk protein or semo baits.

I have just tried to look up my old sources of commercial food flavourings and it transpires that both Daniels and Pointings, who were the major UK suppliers have been gobbled up by other competitors.

So I guess my zing will never again be available unless anyone knows otherwise? It always worked for me on a fishmeal base why I do not know, any way I am banned from making boilies since my experiments with lug and crab flavours.

I did pick up some concentrated Sardine oil, in Spain at the weekend and I am still pondering the posibilities (at least those that do not lead to a divorce).

I always bring Richworth Esterberry in 10mm on all my sessions and am also keen on Richworth Crab & Crayfish.

 

Thinking of trying out Fusion next season.
