I've seen them used but don't think it was for attracting as much as for sight fishing. being able to see them more effectively

FAG fines here in Idaho act as a deterrent to putting things or substances into the water not attached to a hook. No live bait or shrimp are allowed. 2nd time, you lose most of what you have with you.
So, light the fuse and hand it to the CO and ask if he's fishin'

It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

It`s a depth perception thing, you can see the bottom and any fish in the water column easier with the scattered eggshells on the bottom. Ya wanna crush em up fine, even use a hammer or rolling pin in a ziplock baggie.

We always used them for spearing pike.  Really lights up the bottom, and it's bio degradable.  I knew some old timers that used tin foil or torn up beer cans :nono:  Took some serious work getting them to change their ways!
