Falkus Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Was trying to give myself something for the scent on my plastics. I have two gel of Smelly Jelly of Bass Hammer and some other one that i cant think of .. EDIT: I have the Bass Hammer and Bass Feast The bass Feast Caught me two bass today in 40 min span. Until I have been reading about the JJ MAGIC. I am thinking of getting the clear since i dont wanna mess up my lures, Just wanna the garlic scents on to attract bass to my lures... Should I just stick with my smelly Jelly or just get a JJ magic and put the lures on them the day before the tournament ? cuz i don't wanna make a mess on the boat that is not even mine if i accidentally spill it and i am prone to do that ..

Super User A-Jay Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Shhhhhhhh - Now don't go telling everyone about smelly jelly - especially the "Bass Hammer" - Seriously though, the Smelly Jelly Sticky Liquid has been my scent of choice for a few years now. I have not tried JJ's and don't plan to, it's a risk over gain thing for me. A-Jay Quote
Bigdawg48 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 JJ's Magic is the best on the market if you ask me. Not only can you use the colors independantly but you can create custom colors. JJ's color your bait all the way through the bait and the smell last forever! I keep all colors on my boat. I would take the clear, chart, and methiolate. Be careful and you will not have a problem. I havent used smelly jelly but I dont need to. If it scares you to use it...dip your bait on Thursday or Friday before the tourny. You will have plenty of scent on the baits when you use them. Quote
Super User CWB Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Haven't tried smelly jelly but JJ's stays on the bait for days, not hours. Like others have said, once you get used to it and are careful, no problems. (Megastrike works pretty darn good too) Quote
bassmasterdb33 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Stays on for days!!! good thing cause my plastics hold up for about 3-5 fish and done. Haven't tried smelly jelly but JJ's stays on the bait for days, not hours. Like others have said, once you get used to it and are careful, no problems.(Megastrike works pretty darn good too) Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Try JJ's and see what you think. I doubt you will ever buy Smelly Jelly again. JJ's is the real deal! ;D ;D ;D Quote
Flukeman Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Had a guy clean my clock six to one one day with that darn smelly jelly. Yes, I now use the smelly jelly! Quote
Falkus Posted March 23, 2011 Author Posted March 23, 2011 Okay, Should I just get the clear one ? that will not change colors if I understand ... I am not looking to change colors unless you guys think I should just buy extra one to give different look ? Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 23, 2011 Super User Posted March 23, 2011 Clear will not do anything to a colored bait, just don't use it on 3X soft baits, JJ's will melt them... ;D Quote
robsbell Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Smelly Jelly Bass Feast and Mann's Sting Ray Grub. Deadly on cold water bass! Quote
Primus Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I've used Smelly Jelly for several years, been very happy with it. Quote

Like others have said, once you get used to it and are careful, no problems.(Megastrike works pretty darn good too) Point is you can dip your baits before hitting the water and they will still have plenty of scent when you use them. Plus you'll have everyone that loves Italian food within 5 miles running over to see what's for dinner. ;D Quote
KC Bass Fanatic Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I've never used Smelly Jelly but I'll say this about JJ's. I had some used plastic worms laying on my boat deck when I put it in storage in November. When I got my boat out 2 weeks ago the worms still had a strong smell of JJ's on them. I can't claim that it lasts 'forever' but it has to be darn close. Now just stinking doesn't mean much to a fisherman so I'll also add that when I'm using JJ's I notice a difference in how long they will hold on. Quote
Brandon K. Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Is JJ's a gel? Been looking for something to put on hair jigs. Almost picked up a jar of Smelly Jelly yesterday. Quote
Big Tom Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Is JJ's a gel? Been looking for something to put on hair jigs. Almost picked up a jar of Smelly Jelly yesterday. Nope. It's a liquid. Quote
Falkus Posted March 25, 2011 Author Posted March 25, 2011 After telling my GF about how i have been thinking and being borderline of buying the JJ Magic She was the one that suggest me to get the smelly jelly last year and She gave me the approval to get two dips Just placed an order last night to get it on time for the fishing tournament that I am part of Clear and Methodal (SP) is what I ordered and hope that It will bring me many bass to win the tournament Quote
Falkus Posted March 29, 2011 Author Posted March 29, 2011 Just got the JJ Magic --- I have dipped it in and I am not smelly any strong garlic on it ? is it my nose playing tricks on me because the bait isnt stunk yet like I was hoping it would. Im only smelling little garlic. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted March 29, 2011 Super User Posted March 29, 2011 Just got the JJ Magic ---I have dipped it in and I am not smelly any strong garlic on it ? is it my nose playing tricks on me because the bait isnt stunk yet like I was hoping it would. Im only smelling little garlic. Dip it three to five seconds and it's there. There's no chance of it not being there if it's JJs. The stuff can out smell a grizzly bear farting bull moose. And that's why it so daggone good. Quote

Im only smelling little garlic. Just opening the bottle the smell should hit you....You're the first person I know of that can't smell the stuff...LOL People are warned not to open it in the house or car.That smell lingers around for awhile. You sure you don't have a cold or stuffy nose? Quote
johnD. Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Is JJ's a gel? Been looking for something to put on hair jigs. Almost picked up a jar of Smelly Jelly yesterday. If your looking for a gel check out Pro-Cure. Quote
HardHookset Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 JJ's is wicked wicked stuff. It comes in a glass bottle for a reason, it will melt a normal plastic container but there's no doubt it works. I can't even keep it in the house it stinks so good! Quote
mikeeasttn Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Went to Tackle Warehouse site and found Smelly Jelly and ordered but could not find JJ's Magic there. Where can I purchase JJ's. Would like to try each and see which one works best for me. Thanks Quote
