What is the effect of adding honey and brown sugar to bait?

First, as additives, brown sugar and honey contain certain minerals, amino acids and vitamins, which are exactly what fish need, and sometimes they also play the role of additives when preparing bait or brewing medicinal liquor to lure fish;

The second is to make up for the shortcomings of other additives. Vitamin B2 is often used as an additive. It releases a special smell and is very popular among crucian carp and carp, but it tastes bitter, which fish don't like. Therefore, when vitamin B2 is used, honey and brown sugar will also exist to neutralize its bitterness.

The third is anti-corrosion. Senior fishermen know that adding a certain amount of brown sugar or honey to bait or nest material can inhibit the formation and reproduction of bacteria, thus prolonging the shelf life.

Because of these effects, brown sugar and honey are widely used in fishing.
