Like most I have played around with additives & "rubby dubby" bags on the anchor etc, & I currently use a swimfeeder with cooton wool soaked in Pilchard Oil in the bottom, & any old chopped fish, "mortifying" worms etc in the top. I have even used Kit-E-Kat stuffed in there, & I catch on it, but its a job to know whether its any better than the "placebo" or not.
Does anybody else use regular additives, & if so, what & how? I find them awfully arkward to cast off the shore, & I usually limit it to a lump of foam rubber (in the middle of a Pennel Rig) soaked in Pilchard Oil. Off the boat I "hoy" all sorts in, any submarine underneath would think its being depth charged, but I reckon anything that atrracts the fish is cool.
Mackerel minced up small & stuffed in a swim feeder certainly attracts thornbacks & dogs in the summer, but I am looking for the "definitive" plaice, dab, turbot, flounder attractant, anybody got any ideas or experience?
