I've just been reading that soaking maggots in fizzy pop makes them absorb the air bubbles and float,

When put on a hook they sink alot slower because they have almost neutral buoyancy,

Just wondering if anybody has tried this and had any results ?

Be careful as for every eight you could get 7up :D

You don't need pop. Just a little water, not enough to cover them and after a few minutes they'll take in air making them float.

Once just to try it. Can't say I noticed any difference but better anglers than I say it does or can.
