WD-40 is also the greatest artificial fishbiat in the world.

You think i'm kidding.

At boy scout camp that was THE way to accomplish fishing merit badge. I'm suprised none of you have tried it. Grab a worm, a couple of quick sprays and you will have fish fighting over it. Fish have a teriffic sense of smell, and they are very attracted by this astoundingly useful chemical.

I don't know about eating the fish aftewards, but as far as catching them, this is the trick. Now, total disclaimer on this one applies: I'm not responsible for you killing yourself, other people, or the environment with this, but it's fun to do, not to mention it's an ego boost for those of us like me who are terrible fishermen.
