I am a big believer in doing things different i will prep chick peas but soak them in marmite water to boost them i have caught on pickled onions, sweets and various meats, im a big big fan of Pepperami proper forgotten old bait, but never used prawns, need to give them a try, another half lost bait is a huge chunk of bread flake fished under a float, can be a simple killer trick
