What are the methods that have worked for you? I'm trying the one I found on a sticky. Using krill and getting them to hit the surface and throwing pellet's in after every other krill.

Tie the pellet on a fishing line, let it sink then jig it like you would fishing. That usually works for me. You can also try crushing pellets and powder coating their normal food with pellet powder. Or u can go the eat or die method.

ok so this is a no fail method.

Keep feeding bloodworms but throw in the whole frozen cube. once he eats the cube whole you got him.

Take a tray of bloodworm cubes pop them all out and defrost them in your favorite cereal bowl. mix in your pellet of choice 15 percent to start, mix and spread mixture back into bloodworm tray, refreeze. pop out a couple and feed bass. he will take it. then make higher percentage pellet to worm cubes and continue to feed. soon he will be wacking pellets. Be forwarned as to one of my other threads. It may make your fish a little, how do you say, fond of the male bass with the big hump.

the other element that helps is competition, or more bass. this makes the process even easier.

This method worked for my 3" pbass

This is golden I never thought of that I have 4 baby's so I've always thawed them out and dumped them I'm slowly they crowd my feeding cup but I will start breaking the cubes in pieces and see if they take the chunks then move forward with the pellet mixtures thanks!!!
