caelan · Feb 27, 2015

just a quick one I do not buy maggots an not done for 3/4 seasons
what sort of price do you have to pay for a pint now as I may start to get some
for the new season when it starts as I have only been using hair rig corn/pellets for feeder fishing for tench/bream this past few season

£2.00 a pint Lincoln

I pay around £2.30 a pint round here in South Yorkshire, I dare say they cost a bit more down south. It's not often I go fishing without maggots, even just half a pint as back up.

I just had to txt my mate he has just told me that the price
in our local tackle shop is £3.00 per pint I may have to just pinch some of his
or knock it of his petrol money LOL MARTIN/CAELAN

Are they silver plated or something

In a month or so get yourself over to Walker`s pets in Swinton. Kev charges £1.80 a pint iirc and they`re always in top class condition, and it`s usually a generous pint too. He doesn`t sell all year round but once the weather gets a little better he`ll have them back in stock.

Before you Northern lot start crying "footpads" you want to get yourself dahn Sarf. I can't be certain as I rarely buy maggot but a pint is well over 3 nicker....about £3.40 I think.

£3.20 a pint in Surrey.
But they are super fresh- normally last at least a week in my fridge and sometimes 2.

sam vimes · Feb 27, 2015

I'm paying £3 a pint. I know I could get them cheaper, but there's little sense in driving further to buy cheaper maggots that last half as long.

£2.40 for a generous pint of good maggots, £2.20 if you buy four or more pints and if I ring him an hour before he'll dye me up some bronze.

Concur at £2 a pint in Lincoln and worth every penny!

Yes, but as we know Skip, they're good quality (as are the casters etc.) brewed on the premises and not bloody flatpacks................

PS I think it's £3.25

£2.65 per pint BUT the ones I bought last Saturday are still wriggling and look good for Sunday

slaphead · Feb 27, 2015

£2.60 per pint locally

When I was fishing in the Cotswolds, I was charged 3.60.

I've just krilled up around two pints of leftover maggots from several sessions which were riddled, bagged and chucked in the bait freezer so pretty much a freebie for tomorrow in the sense that they would have otherwise been chucked away at the end of each session.

It's surprising what adds up when you start bringing leftover bait home, it seemed like a big hit the first time I bought a bait freezer but I'm definitely quids in over the long run.

What do I pay?
Considerably less than a pint of ale.
Support your local tackle shop or you won't have anywhere to buy maggots whatever the cost.

Two pound a pint in worksop notts, BUT, if you drop ten pounds to the dealer you can take them any amount req'd at one fifty a pint untill the moneys gone--- good maggots -- great deal!!!

I bow to your superior knowledge Jezza......can't remember the last time I bought any maggots. The casters as you say are superb and you need a good maggot to get a good caster.
