Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to a fish bait comprising a raw fish which has been ground and pulverized in micronized form, blended with a surface active agent, and the resulting mixture dried by a process which allows the pulverized bait to remain raw, such as by freeze-drying, pulverizing the dried bait again to a micronized form, and thereafter placing the dried and micronized bait into a water permeable container and sealing the same. When placed in the water, the bait thus manufactured, allows the taste and smell thereof to be dispersed throughout the water and thereby attracts a desired fish.
