I’ve started putting flavoured pellet oil on my meat stops it floating, and gives it a bit of a smell too

[@AverageAngler]

You can pump meat in a pellet pump, this makes it sink. I do like my meat to sink slow though,so I put up with it🙂.

[@WoolavyLeeWilliams]

You think meat sinks to the bottom? Don't take that as it seems, I have done many checks with different brands at different times of year. Some meat finds it's buoyancy at 2 or 3 foot down unless some fat is taken out by soaking in water, rinsing with hot water or adding something to make it heavier.

[@AverageAngler]

Interesting, have you tried pumping it? That seems to make it sink well.

[@WoolavyLeeWilliams]

@@AverageAngler no I haven't, not sure I even have a working pump. I've figured out what prep is needed for scenarios and conditions etc. My rule of thumb is cooler and/or deeper the water the more effort to remove fat and firm up the meat or add weight like liquids or coatings. My caveat being I try to use/feed in groundbait when I haven't bothered with prep.
