Super User geo g Posted May 22, 2018 Super User Posted May 22, 2018 I seldom use it. It has to be real slow before I soak a bait. I'm sure it might help them holding the bait a little longer. If I do use it, I use a Dandy Dipper, which I dip a bait, and then throw it. It makes dipping really easy. It has a screw top which you use when moving from place to place, no spill!. It hooks under a cleat, and actually hangs off the boat, and over the water. Drippings go in the water, not the boat. Nice little tool, for those who use sent a lot. Dipping does leave a sented oil trail in the water as you move the bait. 1 Quote

Super User NYWayfarer Posted May 22, 2018 Super User Posted May 22, 2018 I use: Megastrike Yum or Gulp Crawfish scent Reel Snot Java Most of the time its Megastrike, the other stuff is scents I got on clearance. 1 Quote
Super User the reel ess Posted May 22, 2018 Super User Posted May 22, 2018 None. I like how anise smells the most. Fish seem to like whatever Berkley Powerbait is called. Quote
OCdockskipper Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Fish Sticks, usually the crawfish but occasionally the shad. Ironically, in the 5 times I have been on an Elite anglers boat, the pro's I have been with have never used scent. David Fritts spent 8 hours last Thursday dragging a Carolina rig around with a small beaver bait and not once used scent. 2 Quote
moguy1973 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I just started using JJ's Magic which is garlic. Haven't really been out enough to see if it helps. Quote
Hook2Jaw Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I've used garlic and Berkley bass attractant, I can't tell the difference between scented and unscented. Quote

Global Moderator Mike L Posted May 22, 2018 Global Moderator Posted May 22, 2018 If and when I do which is becoming more rare I use 1/3 anise and 2/3 baby oil Mike Quote

All about da bass Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I figured the percentage would be lower for the none one. It's very effective on certain days. Quote
frosty Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 I jj magic’d My backpack twice, and the couch. I promptly threw it away. I’ve never used the jj’s, and it’s almost entirely gone, when I used spike it a few times I noticed no difference in bites or how long they would hang on, so I don’t bother anymore. Quote
Fishingmickey Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Spike it more for the color (chartreuse dipping the tail or claws) then scent. Megastrike if I use scent at all then usually with jigs or unscented plastics. FM 1 Quote
keagbassr Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 2 hours ago, All about da bass said: They make frog?? What's next duck or snake? Yes they do. As far as the other two given the bowling pin sized baits some are throwing I wouldn't be surprised. 1 Quote
jtharris3 Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 Megastrike 90% of the time. The other 10%, garlic chartreuse pen, mostly for the color. 1 Quote
FishDewd Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 I have Pro-Cure Crawfish and Megastrike... haven't noticed any difference using them over not using them. What seems to work better are the Powerbaits and coffee scented lures. Those have caught me a few fish. Other traditional soft baits that just smell like plastic/rubber, haven't seen any difference adding scent to them or not. Fish either bite them or don't. Quote
Yakalong Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 Normally none, but occasionally I will use crawfish. Quote
