died and snapperhead,
I think that these hatchery chews will work better on pellet trained fish than anything! You can put one on your small hook and cast very far with ultralight gear without using a weight. They also smell like real food.
Some days fish absolutely will not bite on anything, yet they will still come to regularly scheduled dinner. Best bait for this situation: Berkley Hatchery Chew
One of my heavily fished ponds if you cast a bobber to get some extra distance, you scare the fish. Best bait for this situation: Berkley Hatchery Chew
Another pond, if you cast a bobber and make a big splash, the fish come running. Best bait for this situation:Cheap fly/worm chunk attached to a clear float.
Catfish fishing in a pellet fed pond, place a split shot about 10 inches above your hook baited with 2 hatchery chews and hold onto your pole, dont set it down.
