good pike bait imagine would work for conger huss etc ... sure iv heard of people using them for tope

 

I saw that and yes very interesting and i wondered myself what it would be like from the beach.

 

The stocked trout are very fatty due to all the pellets. So the oil will be leaching out well in the water.
He (Graham) also uses these for the base of his chum mixes in lots of videos.

 

A very oily high protein bait, like mackerel, why wouldn't it be good for conger and tope?

 

I am going to a fishery for a day and I am keeping my catch

 

Whole rainbow trout are often used for common skate. I've used strips of rainbow trout when mackerel have been scarce and I've caught thornbacks and dogfish on it. The skin is very tough and the bait lasts well on the hook. A friend of mine who used to work in a processing plant caught thornbacks on chunks of farmed salmon.

 

Started using it last few month from when iv been going to stocked lake near me that is only catch and keep but not a fan of the taste so started freezing and using for sea bait from shore rays and dogfish love them sure huss ext would aswell but aint too many about near me iv heard of some bass taking to it from a friend if using small strips mixed with some lugworm apparently they love it but iv not had much joy myself doing that yet

 

Works for Whiting . From the boat I've caught Sharks , Bull Huss and Spurdogs on Rainbow trout.

 

Tried it for Flounders on a spare rod, but no joy, out fished by frozen macky strip, when rebaiting the used trout strips were even refused by the gulls .

 

Had conger, tope and blue shark on it. The saltwater reared are even more oily and great for bait/chum.
