outlawguy540 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Does anyone use any type of scents? Do they really work, or are they a waste of $$$? Quote
aarogb Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I use Megastrike scent. IMO, they are better than everybody else because they last a heck of a lot longer and smell really good!!!!!!! Also, I do believe that scents helps those fincky fish bite instead of just a lure without scent. P.S. Megastrike is also a advertiser on this forum. Quote
Jeffthefisherman Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Im using gulp alive crawfish spray scent. This product is really good and is productive. Only 9 bucks for a bottle. try... ull see how it works. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted May 13, 2009 Super User Posted May 13, 2009 I have used Bang craw...I can't see any difference. Just bought some of JJ's magic, but haven't really tested it yet..others swear by it. Quote
Super User CWB Posted May 13, 2009 Super User Posted May 13, 2009 Megastrike Chompers Garlic JJ's magic. I don't throw a jig or soft plastic without scent. You can put Megastrike on your spinnerbaits and hardbaits as it is kind of a paste. They do work. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 13, 2009 Super User Posted May 13, 2009 I think "scent" helps hold a bite a little longer. I use JJ's Magic on jig trailers (pre-soaked and stored in small plastic bags). For all other soft plastics and swimbaits, MegaStrike. 8-) Quote
bigtimfish Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 kick n bass anise shad and yum crawfish. i dont know if they really work but i forget to use them most of the time and still catch fish. Quote
outlawguy540 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Posted May 13, 2009 Thanks for the info? I was told that it just covers up the human smell which is good also. Thanks again. Quote
husonfirst Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I've been using Smelly Jelly this year but it's hard to say if it's been a factor. Quote
Blue Streak Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Does anyone use any type of scents? Do they really work, or are they a waste of $$$? They are a waste of $$$. Use your under arm deodorant it will work just as well. Bass are not scent feeders. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 15, 2009 Super User Posted May 15, 2009 THATS IT I QUIT !!!!! C'mon now... You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. A tube of MegaStrike won't break the bank. Give it a try and see what you think. 8-) Quote

Super User Crestliner2008 Posted May 15, 2009 Super User Posted May 15, 2009 I use a tube of MegaStrike almost every year. Great stuff. At least the fish think so. Maybe it's just my confidence edge? Whatever....the proof is in the catchin'! Quote
Blue Streak Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I'm sorry, but it just has not been proven to me. I have never been out fished by anyone I was sharing a boat with that was using scent when I was not. Quote
BUCKEYEone Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 I started out occasionally using Yum craw scent and bought the megastrike scent this year. I think it makes a difference, the fish hold on a little longer giving you time to set the hook, in my opinion. Quote
