Question for all you carp anglers

What is the most unusual bait you have used sucessfully. What did you catch and in what situation

For my part it was a pink marshmellow (many yrs back) - caught a 5lb mirror of the top (was pb at the time). Also tried crab flavour fish sticks, had them feeding but could not get a pick up

Chocky raisins put one on just for a laugh as nothing was happening and bagged a 3lb mirror (didnt weigh it ) and have had a few doubles on both Cheesey whotsits and monster munch (not pickled onion monster munch dont seem to like them)

I think it is still commercially available too
