My pellets won’t stick.

[TF_Smeagle]

Hi all, I’m new to the pellet method feeder, I’ve always used groundbait up until recently.
I’m having trouble getting my 2mm dynamite pellets to stick together, same deal on the pellet cone too, they just fly off mid cast.
Does anyone do anything to make them bind better?
I thought of adding a bit of groundbait but on most of the venues I match fish this would be classed as cheating.
Any help would be appreciated.

sprinkle horlicks on them, that will make em bind.

are they soaked for long enough? or even too long? if there over wet they wont stick properly, or just add a couple of hand fulls of swimstim natural to help bind together. i personally use skrettings pellets, or fin perfect.

I don’t have any problems getting the Dynamite pellets sticking (if you mean the normal light brown XL Carp ones) or with the Green jobbies. Try soaking them a bit longer!

Horlicks is the answer ! a teaspoon per pint of dry micros is more than enough !

Squeeze them as hard as you can too, even in the cone, as soon as they hit the water they will start coming apart, drop it in a bucket and see!

Thanks lads, I’m gonna try the horlicks trick.
