Spike It Dye/scent

[WVbassin87]

I really wanna try JJ's, but my next trip too close to order it. so i picked up a jar of Chatreuse Garlic Spike It. anybody used it? like it?

It's definitely not as potent as JJ's but it works fine for dyeing plastics.

Works ok, but do a quick dip and that's it. Seems to eat some plastics if you use too much. I ruined a couple Papi Craws that way.

I like it.  if you bought the dip, get some q tips and apply with the q tips.  It lasts longer and you don't melt the plastic.  Quick dips for tails.  I have the fire red, blue and chartreuse.  Mixing them makes for some interesting color combos.

I have it and JJ's...  I use the JJ's for my Jigs cause the bottle is big enough to dip the whole jig-  The only thing I don't like about JJ's is the glass bottle... It's nice, but I always worry about it exploding in my tackle box.  I like the Q-tip idea.  now i can "paint" my flukes just the way I want to.

I use the marker.  It seems to last longer and it isnt messy.

I do this too. It's also easier to transport in a tackle bag. I can carry 4 to 5 colored markers in the space of 1 jar.

Used to use Spike It until I tried JJ's. I found JJ's lasts much longer and is much more potent. Maybe Spike It has gotten better, not sure, but when I used it a while back, it lasted maybe a day. Plus the bottle dried up. Switched to JJ's and haven't looked back.Found an old swimbait that I dyed the tail Chartreuse on with JJ's at the bottom of my rod rocker. Still holding it's color and even a bit of the smell remains. Must be 5 years old.

Sure, I use it to dye white baits when walleye fishing. It works okay on darker bass lures, but its not as strong as JJs. The upside is that the jars are leak proof and won't explode like JJs. I've caught a lot of fish using it.

I really like the markers also, easy to carry along with you and not messy at all.

Markers for me. My plastics don't last long enough for me to care if the dye lasts a long time. No idea if the scent works or not. I use megastrike if I want scent.
