LOL..if we eat it, the fishes do too. Cats will eat leftover. Carp will eat sweat fruits and veggies, gills will eat what comes out of the fruits and veggies. Bass will eat anything that swim and fit in their mouths. What's next?! LOL But will truly try the pineapple chunks and corn kernels again.

As long as it isnt meat, right? I didnt think carp went for meaty treats....

I really don't have that much experience with this one, as I have only been fishing for carp for about 9 months now. But I have caught most of my fish on Wacker Corn Pips ( kernels) tutti-frutti flavored or Enterprise Eternal Pop-Up Corn, which is artificial, in tutti-frutti and pineapple flavors.

Interestingly, the largest fish we have caught have been on dried, sweetened pineapple chucks we got from the local super market.

My motto is...if you'll eat it, a carp will eat it as well.
