Hi all,
I agree with the general thrust of Jeff's message, but I know from
personal experience that taking a pill is not going to stop people from
adding to the burley. Believe me I've tried them all. A pill though
tends to allow you to feel normal once the deed is done. Make sure you
eat plenty of food though, the birds and fish will appreciate it.
Happy burleying.
