Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers making compact PVA presentations. Adds fine fishy feed around the hookbait and complements coarser bag ingredients.
- Anglers who enjoy tweaking paste and stick mixes. Offers a versatile crumb ingredient rather than tying you to one finished bait presentation.
Maybe skip if
- Anyone shopping for a ready-to-mount hookbait. This is loose feed for mixes, not a pellet or boilie you can simply put on a hair.
- Anglers wanting a coarse bed of substantial food. The fine crumb won't replace the physical size and staying presence of larger feed items.

Quick verdict
A handy mix ingredient, not a magic bite switch
Salmon Micro Feed makes sense for anglers who like building their own bag, stick and paste mixes. Its fine, sinking crumb gives you a different texture from pellets and chopped boilies, with a fishy ingredient list behind it.
The catch? It isn't a hookbait or a guaranteed shortcut to a screaming take. Buy it for its role in your mix, keep quantities sensible and let the fish tell you whether they want more.

The confirmed ingredient range gives it a credible role as a fishy feed ingredient, though physical consistency hasn't been checked.
Its fine, sinking format fits the listed bag, stick and paste uses, without a tested breakdown rate to judge.
It offers a useful presentation option around the hookbait, but no catch improvement has been demonstrated here.
Dry bag mixing should be straightforward, while paste binding and liquid compatibility need a bit more care.
The 1kg pack and multiple uses suggest practical utility, but a firm bargain verdict needs a confirmed price.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the CC Moore Salmon Micro Feed
CC Moore Salmon Micro Feed is one of those baits that makes more sense when you picture the finished trap than when you just read the name. You're buying a fine, sinking salmon fry crumb, not a bag of hook pellets or some ready-made wonder rig accompaniment. Think a compact PVA bag, a little stick beside the hookbait, or a fishy addition to a paste mix. That's its patch. If you enjoy putting your own mixes together, there's a useful idea here without needing to turn the kitchen into a bait factory.
The texture is the main reason to give it a look. Bigger pellets and chopped boilies provide obvious mouthfuls; a fine crumb brings much smaller food particles into the same area. That gives you another way to build a little feeding spot around the hookbait, rather than simply adding more chunky bait. It doesn't mean carp will automatically spend longer there, mind. Feeding mood, stock levels and where you've put the rig still call the shots. But as a way of varying the physical makeup of a mix, it makes proper sense.
What's in it? The confirmed ingredients include low-temperature fish meals, fish oils, and fish, meat and vegetable proteins. There are amino acids, vitamins and minerals too, alongside natural yeasts, ionic salts and betaine. That's a fairly busy ingredient list for a humble-looking crumb. CC Moore describes a natural fish aroma and a salty, oily fish taste. We haven't tasted it or put it through a session, so treat that as the product description rather than a bankside verdict. No need for anyone to start licking their spod mix, mate.
Visually, it's dark brown to black. On a dark lakebed, that offers a less obvious-looking option than a bright groundbait patch, although it won't magically disappear on every bottom. The other interesting detail is the described cloud of salty, fishy particles once it's in water. Think particle release from a sinking feed, not a promise of some huge, lasting plume. How that looks around your rig will depend on the mix, the water movement and how tightly you've packed everything. There's no confirmed breakdown time here to plan a bite-time around.
For a straightforward carp approach, I'd look at it as the fine part of a bag mix alongside suitably sized pellets or crushed boilie. That's a suggested use, not a recipe we've tested. Start with a small batch and check how it packs before filling a stack of bags for the weekend. Keep dry-bag ingredients dry, and make sure any liquid you introduce is PVA-friendly. A quick check in the edge can save a load of faff, though remember that colder or deeper water may behave differently from your little margin check.
Paste is another listed use, but don't confuse suitable for paste mixes with ready-to-fish paste straight from the pack. You still need to get the binding and consistency right for whatever you're doing. A soft paste around a lead and a paste intended to stay on a hook have different jobs, especially when casting or dealing with nuisance fish. Add ingredients gradually and try a small amount first. There's no benefit in turning the whole kilo into something either too sloppy to handle or so stiff it doesn't behave the way you wanted.
Session-wise, this looks most relevant when you're working with small, deliberate parcels of feed. A short visit after work, a single bag cast towards showing fish, or a carefully placed margin trap are all situations where that approach can fit. None of that makes the crumb selective for carp, though. Other feeding fish may get involved, and a fine bait isn't a guarantee of avoiding little mouths. In cold water or when bites are scarce, begin cautiously rather than assuming small particles give you a free pass to shovel plenty in.
The pack is 1kg, and storage is straightforward: cool, dry and out of direct sunlight. Keep the main supply away from wet hands and damp mixing bowls, then only prepare what you need. The appeal is simpler: a dark, fishy, sinking crumb with several useful jobs. If that fills a gap in your bait bucket, cracking. If you've already got that job covered, you don't need another bag just for the sake of it.

Our take
Think small particles, not small effort
The useful bit is the crumb format: you can put fine feed close to your hookbait without relying entirely on larger mouthfuls.
That makes it an interesting building block for compact traps, but presentation and finding feeding fish still matter far more than an extra ingredient.
Inside the bag
A fine-feed building block with a fishy lean
Salmon Micro Feed is supplied as a fine salmon fry crumb. That distinction matters: you're choosing it for small particles and mixing flexibility, not a particular hookbait size. Its sinking nature and dark colour give you a clear starting point when planning a compact bait presentation.
The fish meals and fish oils sit alongside a broader mix of proteins, yeasts, salts and betaine. Those are confirmed contents, but the amounts aren't given here. You can't sensibly work out an oil percentage, a nutritional balance or a precise release rate from the ingredient names alone.
Worth knowing. Don't wet a PVA mix with ordinary water and expect the bag to hold together. Prepare paste separately, and check any liquid intended for your bags or sticks is PVA-friendly.
Your sort of fishing?
Best for anglers who like a bit of mix-making
If you already carry pellets, crushed boilies and PVA, this slots into a familiar routine. You can use the crumb to bring a finer element to the parcel rather than changing your entire bait approach. Keep a note of what you've mixed; changing five things at once makes it harder to understand what actually suited the session.
It also makes sense for paste tinkerers who want a fishy ingredient and don't mind adjusting the binding. It's less convincing for someone who wants to open a packet, mount a bait and cast straight out. There's a little preparation involved, and that's either part of the fun or another job before you've even got the rods out.
Value depends on whether you'll use it across those jobs. A kilo used in small parcels offers scope for several mixes, but there's no verified current price here to call it a bargain. If it just duplicates a fine fishmeal feed already in your bucket, keeping your quid might be the smarter move.
Before you mix up
PVA, paste and what happens underwater
Can it go in PVA bags? Yes, and stick mixes too. Treat moisture control as part of the job, not an afterthought. Make one sample with your chosen ingredients and check that it survives handling and opens as expected before preparing a whole session's supply.
Can you fish it straight on the hook? Not as the loose crumb supplied. Its listed paste use means incorporating it into a mix with suitable binding. Test that paste against your actual needs: holding through a cast, coping with depth and releasing around the presentation aren't all the same task.
Will it sink or make a cloud? Both descriptions can fit. The product is sinking crumb, while fine particles can disperse as the mix opens. Don't read that as a fixed cloud duration or guaranteed spread. Packing, other ingredients and water movement will all influence what happens around your hookbait.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like
- Fine crumb adds a useful texture alongside pellets and crushed boilies.
- Works across PVA bag, stick and paste mixes.
- Dark colour suits anglers wanting a less visually obvious patch of feed on dark bottoms.
- Fish meals, oils, yeasts and betaine give it more going on than plain bulk.
Worth knowing
- Fine particles won't offer the same substantial mouthfuls as pellets or boilies.
- Paste consistency and PVA-friendly liquid additions still need sorting yourself.
- Its fishy, oily character won't suit every bait approach.

02Is it a hookbait or a paste ingredient?
Is it a hookbait or a paste ingredient?
It's a fine, sinking feed crumb suitable for paste mixes, rather than a finished hookbait. You'll need to sort the binding and consistency for your presentation.
03Does it float or sink?
Does it float or sink?
It's described as sinking salmon fry crumb. CC Moore also describes it as creating a cloud of salty, fishy particles in water; that doesn't mean a permanent cloud hanging above your rig.
