And do you feed Corn in with it? This appears to be a common practice, as far as I can see...
DaceAce I always use a darning needle to pull the hook through big chunks and then push the hook back in covering it completely. You could hair rig chunks in jelly as these are stiffer like JC's dynamite frenzied catmeat. As for how many tins you need for a match I cant say really, but yes feed corn or pellets to bulk it out. Remember to add a little water when potting it out as it can just end up all congealed in a sticky mess. I also liquidize a couple of tins to add to groundbait as this too can add superb attraction to your swim.
Have an inside line a few sections down the bank and keep putting the odd potfull out and watch for feeding signs whilst catching on that other line. Picking out some lumps like this will hopefully put you in the money.
Good luck with the match.
