ABSTRACT:
A new and improved fish bait and method for production thereof wherein grapes are treated with fish oil to create an artificial fish egg which has the same shape, flavor, consistency and other characteristics of natural fish eggs. According to the process, artificial fish eggs are manufactured by steeping grapes in an aqueous solution of fish oil and the resulting mixture is heated to a temperature in the approximate range of 87.degree. - 94.degree. C. When the grapes have acquired the necessary fish-like odor they rise to the surface of the soluton. The grapes can be of any variety, color and shape but small round grapes of the Thompson Seedless type are preferred and, if desired, can be dyed to virtually any color. Also, if the proper size grape is chosen, artificial eggs may be produced that simulate the natural eggs of a variety of fish. The aqueous solution may contain red artificial food coloring in varying proportions to impart the color of salmon eggs and a fluorescent dye, such as Rhodamine B may also be included in the aqueous solution to enhance the translucent appearance of the artificial eggs.
