I live in the village just round the corner and know some of the owners relatives and locals who have fished there since the begining.
The reason for the ducks..White bread..Small ball (bit bigger than a marble) compressed and then fluffed around the edges on your hook for fishing on the bottom.
Floating bread on the top when they are up there in summer.
If you know the area. First go up boot hill towards baddesley ensor village. Left down maypole lane there is a small bakery attached to a house.
One of their fresh loaves or good old warburtons thick sliced work a treat.
Peachy
