Have had the hardest time getting my bass off minnows. Harder than any other bass before, and I've converted at least 7, probably more. This guy was stubborn. Finally ate worms today. I don't mind worms as much cuz i always buy 20 dozen every 2 weeks for my rays. Thing is I would still rather have him on shrimp and smelt. So far I've been shaking the bag in front of the glass, getting his interest (which is tough cuz he's so damn shy and skiddish it's ridiculous), and dropping the food in. He won't come to the top, he won't hit right off the drop. Too shy. If I keep him waiting too long he goes and hides in a corner. My game plan is to continue putting the worms in ziploc bags, get him as comfortable as I can, and then in a few weeks when he takes worms quick and easy, i will try a worm first, followed by something frozen that was in the same bag as the worm juice. Don't see him starting to hit from the top, but maybe he likes worms more than minnows so well see. Just thought I would ask you guys if you had anything to add. Not a fan of starving but maybe I can push it a bit. Not really interested in training on pellets, done it before with freeze dried shrimp and krill method, but i prefer frozen and pellets tend to be messy and cause algae in excess. May reconsider if he's not putting on enough size. Tips?
