Heres my 2 cents on corn.. It works.. BUT,,, it can be bad for the fish. I guess that it can stop them from being able to pass food thru their digestive system effectively if they eat to much of it, so if your dumping a can of corn down a few holes it could be bad news for a few fish. It's not like your gonna ruin the hole lake and kill a bunch of fish just make a few of them real uncomfortable for awhile. One of the biggest Browns I have ever seen was caught on corn, I still can't believe it to this day. I know a few people that use it as chum for lakers and it seems to work, I do not use it tho.
It ain't bad for the fish. They eat snails that have shells that are harder than corn hulls. I live in Utah, where corn is illegal to use as bait. The reason has nothing to do with it being harmful to fish. It was usedextensively as chum for years. it was banned because there were bays of certain reservoirs that literally smelled like a still because of all of the corn that people had chummed with. The state banned chumming. It also banned corn for use as bait, because if someone had corn to use for bait, there was nothing that could be done to stop them from chumming with it.Fishrmn

Most fish can't digest it their stomachs can't break it down, be the same things as you or i eating a cedar shingle or bubble gum, some fish like suckers and carp can digest plant material because their digesstive tracts are specialized for it
Go fishing and salt your ice fishing holes with a generous amount of the pasta.
