I'm guessing it was simply the change of shape (I'm assuming these white bits are smaller than a standard chum mixer) that made the difference mate. Get yourself a bag of 6mm floating trout pellets or something and I bet you'll have the same response, just fish the white bits on your hook amongst the floating trouties Be a dam site cheaper and easier than selecting out the little bits from a bag of puppy chum
Totally agree on this one with you Blue. They seem like they wernt to fussy about eating the surface baits, try out small floating trouties like Blue mentioned, will do the job just as good i reckon.
