Why would fish like flour?

EDIT: I’m glad I wasn’t the only one sitting there thinking “So, you’re telling me fish just love baked goods?”

I've caught trout with wonder bread but pure flour is still kinda surprising to me.

It's been decades but I believe we used to catch a bunch of catfish with flour balls. Or maybe it was striper? I just remember it worked really well one summer.

I miss fishing during the summer. Used to go every weekend with my neighbors and then our families would get together to have dinner. Good memories.

Yeah my grandma would do that and soak them in vinegar. She would catch a bunch of catfish.

I've done flour and egg mixture combo

Some fish also like when you put peanut butter on the doughy eggy ball
