Biltong. Use Biltong. You can drop it in the water and it won't matter too much, a small piece will last you a long time because it's revolting, it won't get all squashed in your pocket, you'll look like you know what you're doing when it comes to snacking and you can always use it to bang a fish on the head if you're taking one.
Stay away from whotsits. I mean, the people that invented them weren't sure what to call them so you can bet they have no idea what went into them. On top of that all the orange stuff will get over your (cheap, I've read on other threads) fly-line. It would be OK if you were using a Terenzio silk because they are orange anyway.
For real hard core snacking, use a rubber band: very satisfying to chew on, but there's something missing. Like a calorie maybe.
If you need a carb based snack, get something with a bit of density. This is not for eating so much as spitting out because the heavy oaty thing is no for you. And if you happen to be ground-baiting by spitting it out, well, it serves the world right. People shouldn't make heavy inedible snacks that not even MSG can make edible. That includes pretty much anything that was made with a whole grain (ew) and anything that includes an oat (apart from porridge. Cold porridge is a great snack when covered in sugar, but not so good bankside).
So, that's that sorted. Go and start another thread.
