Problems With Pellets

[rankine]

recently i bought some Crazy Bait Carp Pelets thinking that they sink. I put them in my ground bait but when i casted the feeder, the pellets floated! All the pellets came to the surface and took the carp away from my bait.

Does any one know how i can sink the 8mm Strawberry Crazy Bait Carp Pellets?

VDE pellets are better. If you want them as a hook bait get a bigger size and drill them then put them on the hair. All of the sizes sink.

How much money(£) do VDE pellets cost?

pellet pump is a very good tool to carry.

or try ringers bag up pellets or fishmeal juicy pellets ,perfect for the hook!!!!!!!!

I had a look at one of these pellet pumps for the first time the other day. I think it was priced at £16.99. I can't help but feel, as useful as it may be, that it 's just another product created to fill our overfull tackle boxes to even more excess than they already are.

If you are going to be a 'pellet head' then go ahead, I've got more clutter than I need already thanks!

Did you use the "expander" pellets? The normal variety should sink. The VDE pellets are usually around £1.99 for 900g.

I always use the "Ton Up" brand of pellets, both sinkers and expanders.

 

I used to just squeeze the expanders under water to get them to sink but now i use a pellet pump.

 

I have to admit, i also held off buying a pellet pump because i thought they were just a gimmick but i wouldnt be without mine now. Perfect sinkers every time.
