The original mix of 1:0.4 water ratio for the small yellow surface scattering was adjusted by Zhang Yang to 1:0.5 wet scatter.
The river water is quite deep, and the returning fish might be scared of diffusion, so it's appropriate to slightly increase the water ratio for higher tolerance.
As for the flavor profile, the base of barley sweet potato paste and brown sugar paste remains unchanged, while the dosage of energy fruit acid was intentionally multiplied by Zhang Yang.
As a compound acid additive, it responds to the high-temperature water environment in summer, now with outdoor temperatures above thirty degrees, precisely the most effective time for fruit acid.
With three pounds of wet scattering, Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and poured in two caps of fruit acid. The bait created not only had a rich grain aroma but also a very intense scent that was sour and slightly pungent even from several meters away.
