Recent discussion on here about swim feeders for sea fishing started me wondering.
I was in a pub the other day ( an extremely rare event since the pandemic arrived!) and there was a notice on the bar, "our straws may look like plastic but they are made from vegetables".
Given the amount of plastic in the seas
could beads, lures, lead weights etc be
made from eco friendly materials?
On the internet I found biodegradable weights ( though not quite what is needed for sea fishing in most circumstances)
I also found biodegradable lures.
I think there is a market for biodegrable bits and bobs of sea fishing tackle out there
