Anyone who has ever seen this will know what it means, especially if it's your own bait.
The White stuff on the weigh sling is Vanilla Spice or at least what's left after it has passed down the intestinal tract of a carp. In this instance a Ghostie of around mid-doubles which had obviously been scoffing it for a while. It takes a good few hours even in warm water for it to pass right on through and it was still feeding on it.... think about that for a moment as it tells you plenty about the bait.
How much can one fish eat? Well in warm water they can eat fairly constantly as it will pass through quicker also the intake at one end will push out whats left at the other so...
Yep that's another article in itself and one I do intend on writing... at some point.
Cheers all ;-)
