After cooling, take one fifth and drain it, mix in a small packet of sweet rice wine starter powder, then put it in a glass bottle to ferment for one night or one day, and use it as hook bait. To the remaining four fifths, add rapeseed cake powder, rice bran (stir-fried until fragrant), and an appropriate amount of baijiu, and use it as chum.
