Done a test with the chicken breast

[DIRTTRAX]

After reading here and elswhere about the chicken breast. I decided I would try it out. Still being skeptical I took other baits as well. I had already been trying the raw shrimp and catching a few cats but no more than I had been on nightcrawlers. Any ways I went to my spot (local lake) setup three poles, double hooks each. One with chicken breast, one with night crawlers, and one with shrimp and chicken livers. After I had caught my fifth fish off the chicken breast and not a single cat off the others I pulled the other two rods in and baited them with CB and put them back out in the same spots an started catching cats right away. I was missing so many fish with all three rods going crazy at once I finally pulled two of them out of the water and just fished with one. All I can say is im a firm believer in it now, and will not go without it again.

And just for those wondering, These where fresh out of the pack not seasoned.

It is like other good baits though. Sometimes the fish will turn thier nose up at it and tare something else up.

Me and a friend have been using it this week during our lunch breaks and he caught a nice small the other day on it. Also caught some big blue gill on the smaller chunks.

Im sure they will. I tried it two days in the same spot and caught more cats in those two days with the cb than probably 3-4 days of fishing with other baits in the same spot.

if they turn their nose up at it, they are turned off completely.

Do you normally soak them in anything?

Just slice the breast into cubes, how big? Does it matter fresh or frozen?

I just used chicken breast/strips and slice them about a half inch wide by how ever wide the strip(fajita size/shaped) was to begin with and found they stay on better putting them on the hook like a grub worm. Have a friend who only fishes for big cats and he uses them whole.

I love em, stay on the hook a lot better than livers too A lot of guys swear by mixing them up with cherry Koolaid and Garlic but I never tried it that way.
