[guvnor22002]

I have been using chum mixer for ages and found it quite good but we just got a new puppy came home satday and noticed the missus had been tesco for puppy food and noticed she had bought some pedigree chum puppy mixer .so me been me thought i would try some well wow there are some white bits in the mix that the carp loved i had 10 fish satday in 2 hours on my local they were going mad for the white ones in the box trust me try it. I just had 2 hair rigged to a size 10 hook .theres probably only about i dont no 50-100 white bits in a full box but the carp loved them .try it let me know how u get on

Good result buddy

This is just my opinion but I doubt it was the anything in the 'white bits' which constituted as to why you had a good response from the carp when you introduced them. I don't know the water in question but it sounds like a fairly 'no fuss' water, however, if everyone is using the chummies day in, day out throughout the warmer months, the fish will soon start showing caution if their gettin' nailed each time on them.

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

Cat biscuits usually get a good response if they have seen loads of dog biscuits and bread,with a little disc of cork on the hook.

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.

i tend to use bread as much as i can, mainly because its diffrent shape and size everytime and coz every 1 else uses mixers, i do offer mixers as a freebie but use bread on the hook they always seem to tgake the bread b4 the mixer if its on offer
