Dave, It’s the same on Stanborough lakes in Welwyn Garden City, they have signs up saying the same.
The ducks and geese and swans seem to steer clear of white bread at Stanborough lake; where people have ignored the signs; probably because they are getting sick of it; as there was always people throwing it in for the ducks in the past.; plus some white bread you can buy just doesn’t contain a lot goodness in it.
There are whole slices of white stodgy bread floating untouched between the wildfowl at Stanborough lake being totally ignored by fish and fowl.
When we use breadflake on our hooks with squeezed bread pieces for feed on the river we seem to get a lot more Chub and Dace when we use warburtons (white or brown and seeded) rather than cheap stodgy white bread, however it is slightly harder to use if very small hooks and tiny punched bread bait is being used.

Keith, bread is stodgy when in water? are you sure?
