Went fishing at Packington Somers this afternoon. I took VDE RS Elite expanders and some maggots just to make sure I caught something. I started off with the pellets (4mm) and had my first fish – a crucian – after five minutes fishing. I was very surprised after about 40 minutes later when I caught a gudgeon on a pellet; I was shocked that it took a pellet. I tried to get rid of them by putting extra pellets out but this just seemed to attract even more. . Anyway, I ended up catching about five of the bleeding things and wasn’t too pleased.
What is the best thing to do to prevent small fish from taking these pellets? I obviously want to catch fish but not those sort of fish!!!!!!
Am i using the best sort of pellets???
