Its quite a misleading question, to fish with one bait would be a mistake, there is no such thing as A bait, you need several for different species different conditions and venues. even 1 bait that you think is great can loose its appeal by over using it, you need to evolve, chop and change to succeed with bait.

totally agre!, you cant choose a single bait and then fish with nothing else for the rest of your fishing days. if i did have to do that though it would be aggots obviously!! what about anyone else??

Well, if your talking about sea fishing in Cornwall, deffinatly either sand-eel/sand-lance or things like peeler crabs, hermit crabs, spider crabs, shrimps, prawns and lobser etc. etc.
