Dr. Bruce Tufts is a comparative fish physiologist at Queen’s University where he specializes in fish olfactory senses.

Using hundreds of captive fish, Bruce and his team undertook countless feeding trials to isolate the specific molecules that flip the switch and convince them that your bait is real.
