Petrol can be the kiss of death Cakey
something which has always interested me, and I did a radio show about it a few years ago, was the female estrogen theory, ie women wiping their hands all over maggots and baits and creating excitment among male fish. Frank Warwick did considerable research in this area, hence the advantages of keeping a few Ruffe Slappers in the bivvy
While I was writing an angling colum for one of my local rags, I kept getting reports about a local girl who was forever outfishing the guys in local matches, she was having menstration (womens)problems at the time, which caused her estrogen levels and estrogen sweat emmittence to be extrememly high. She was effectively coating her maggots with a female attractant (homone) and the fish appeared to love it?
