The flake will get on everything, especially when its hot! I have used the chart with some success. Yeah, I get accused of running around when I come home from fishing with silver, and green glitter all over me!

I always start out using crappie nibbles. I think they help if the bite is slow. If the bites are coming frequently, then I quit using them.
Throw hints out to your family around Christmas, maybe they'll put them in your Christmas stocking. They make good stocking stuffers for a crappie fisherman. Great idea about the Christmas gift hints. Works for birthdays too; and it does not have to be your birthday. I buy my wife things that she should have even though she may not know it!

I use them almost all the time. It is a confidence thing I feel. Agree with most above. Never use the glitter ones. It gets all over everything. I use mainly chartreuse and pink but it rarely seems to matter what color. Smell is the key I think.

A little hint about the nibbles that helps them stay on a lot better....either place them spread out in the sun on some tin foil or use a little toaster oven (I have one in the shop for curing jigheads. Learned to NEVER use the one in the house) to dry them out about half way. Still barely spongy, not firm. You've got to experiment a little to get it right, if you leave them too long they get hard and nearly impossible to thread on the hook. I'll put the toaster oven on 150-175 and leave them about 10 minutes, let them cool and check for firmness.
