groundbait
Angler's scattered lure
Groundbait is bait scattered in water to attract fish to a specific spot, preparing the area before casting a line.
Anglers throw groundbait—typically a mixture of breadcrumbs, cereals, and flavorings—to draw fish and keep them feeding in one location: He mixed up some groundbait and tossed handfuls into the swim.
The verb means to scatter such bait: We groundbaited the area for an hour before fishing.
