Anybody try it.I need a good cheap bait.I dont have my usual tuna scraps this year.

Yep it works. Did a test on my last outing, and while there were fewer bugs in the chicken baited pots, they were bigger. I mixed it with a little fish.

Do spanish mackies work for hooping?

Yep.
Think about what our lobster eat on a normal day...anything that dies and falls to the sea floor.
What dies and falls to the seafloor the most in our area? Macs, bonito, YT, etc.
Do chickens? No, but they still work as do salmon. Basically, if it stinks, or is oily or both, and the bugs are crawling, they will try to eat it. They are scavengers after all.
I have found that fresher the fish the better. Just because bugs scavenge, doesn't mean they like rotten stuff. Also, if it's too rotten it will fall apart too quickly underwater.
