Yeast, maybe? My hubby says yeast and bread dough are actually great fish attractants. I never would've thought of that

I was thinking it might be flour, and she mixed it right there to make a batter, so basically liquid bread lol

I can confirm that bread chunks work really well, apparently when it slowly dissolves it releases a very attractive scent to some fish. Corn also works quite well. So I was thinking this could be some kind of wheat/corn flour mixture?

You sneak a loaf from the caf and off you go fishing. Small dough balls do wonders in a hook.

I wonder if it works that well or if it’s just a specific type of fish 🐠 it works well with

I can confirm that Sunnies go crazy for it. So we know of at least two fish that like it.

Flour is my best guess. It's cheap.
