that was the goo that i put on flies sometimes but never on a lure

OK, now we have the record straight, flies only.

I really like Dave's new scent, worked for me (I think) at any rate I'll be using it 100% from now on. I really did notice the catch rate, which is allways low for me, noticeably improve with the use of scents.

Have a nice day, gotta fly if I want to head north tonight.

I often wonder what really is in that scent stuff they sell. I will admit I have some on the boat and use it occassionally but I think I catch just as many without it. Often times my no scented lures catch more than the unscented ones when I do use it. I am sure I can stir the pot with this but...........as in deer hunting, I believe the best scent is no scent at all.

i either read or heard somewhere to try wd-40 on your lures. has anyone else heard that?

Yup... same as scents.. half the people think it helps, half think it hurts. I have a friend that swears using wd-40 works well for him??? I've personally never tried it. Probably never will.

I know some other dumb frenchman up here in Berlin that take small marshmellows and spray them with wd-40 to fish for stockies up here, I've never tryed it cause power bait always worked better for me when doing that, i do keep a can for lubrication purposes on the boat though!!! Take Care God Bless and Tight Lines LOL Dave From up North

just cant bring myself to try it. have bought alot of the db smelts and top guns over the past 2 years and its bad enough losing lures, can't imagine spraying oil on them, it just seems to go against the natural way of things. but if it works for those who have tried, good for them they are braver than me. i did pick up some of the green smelly jelly and will try that
