Paul Milenkovic, 40, argued he met exceptional circumstances for bail at the Ballarat Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

Police informant Detective Senior Constable Scott De La Rue told the court police executed a search warrant at Milenkovic's Redan home on November 19.

The court heard police found $5,000 cash in Milenkovic's right hip pocket, more than nine zip lock bags containing a large quantity of ecstasy, five bags containing methamphetamine, a knife, knuckle dusters, scales and a zip lock bag.

Detective Senior Constable De La Rue said 13 cannabis plant seedlings and pots planted with cannabis seeds were found in the backyard, before two mobile phones and a homemade taser were found on the kitchen bench.

The court heard just under 2kg of butanediol was found in the fridge, 40 times the traffickable quantity. 111g ecstacy tablets were found in total, 37 times the traffickable quantity, and $5,910 in cash.

It is alleged tools, guitars and a sound system in the garage were believed to be the proceeds of crime to the value of $20,000.

Milenkovic was remanded in custody and granted bail with stringent conditions on December 13.

Detective Senior Constable De La Rue said Milenkovic was admitted to the Ballarat Base Hospital with a chainsaw wound on his leg on December 23 and discharged himself on December 29 against medical advice.

It is alleged Milenkovic did not comply with his bail conditions by not reporting to the police station since leaving hospital, not living at his designated bail address and contacting a prosecution witness and he was again

He was arrested and remanded on Friday.

"The accused is an unacceptable risk. Police don't believe he will comply with his bail conditions and will continue to use and traffic drugs," Detective Senior Constable De La Rue said.

"His behaviour isn't giving me any confidence."

Defence barrister Cameron Baker told the court Milenkovic had not been staying at his nominated bail address because the property owner had sold his possessions and stole his money to fund his gambling habits.

He proposed a new bail address be fixed and suggested the same issue would not arise if granted bail to this new address.

Mr Baker said the breach of bail charges were not considered serious and one charge was based on a weak prosecution case.

He also said the Court Integrated Services Program was available to support and monitor Milenkovic while on bail.

Magistrate Ron Saines said he had regard to all of the charges before the court in making his decision on bail, including what he described as a 'strong' case to prove Milenkovic's possession of a large quantity of cash and drugs and a 'likelihood' of proving trafficking methamphetamine and other drugs, cultivation of cannabis, possession of $20,000 of stolen goods and possession of a weapon.

"Lengthy imprisonment is not out of the range in this case," he said.

Mr Saines refused Milenkovic's application for bail and granted the police application to revoke previous bail.

"The evidence falls short of exceptional circumstances," Mr Saines said.

"There is an unacceptable risk of further offences and interfering with witnesses."

Milenkovic will return to court on March 2.
