JJ's Magic has been getting a lot of play here on the Forum,

and I'm a fan, too! However, I am also a big fan of MegaStrike

Fish Attractant, especially this year's new formula.

Bobby says unlike other products that may hold a fish longer

once it has committed to the bite, MegaStrike actually improves

the bite count. Two examples are (1) short strikes and (2) final

commitment.

We have all experienced fish slapping a lure or striking hard,

but missing. Perhaps a lure treated with MegaStrike encourages

more bass to "try it again!"

By "final commitment" I mean when everything involved in the

presentation is just right, but the fish is still hesitant to attack,

MegaStrike may be the final factor that triggers the strike.

For those interested in something "other than garlic", this is

your answer. I think MegaStrike smells like dead shad, but

not overwhelming.

Most importantly, MegaStrike is user friendly. This product has

the consistancy of Vasoline when the weather is cool. It softens

in warm weather, but is still very easy to use: no mess and no

waste.

I think this product is good for all soft plastics, and recommended

for both soft and hard swimbaits. The lubricating aspect is another

big plus. A single application is usually all you will need.

So, pick up a tube and give it a try. I think you will be pleasantly

surprised with the effectiveness of this product. Using MegaStrike

just might put a few more bass in your boat.

Good luck!

I recently got a tube of Yamamoto Megastrike form Dick's.

Asked Bobby about it and he said this batch was made for over in Japan as it is more of a crawfish scent and they go ape for that over there. Anyway, gave it a try and it works as good or better than the original. Went back and got another 2 tubes. Check your local Dick's to see if they have the Yamamoto Megastrike. It's actually priced less.

P.S JJ's stinks!  ;D ;D

Just remember -when that Yamamoto product is gone -its gone- we sent skids upon skids to the Yamamoto Plant and it out of stock now

What RW said!  Seriously, we have a couple tubes on the boat and a few spares at home, because we never want to run out of it.  ;)

X2 Dead or alive, shad smell the same to me.

Hey R.W.-

Seriously, how long will this stuff last. I want to go back to Dick's and buy out the Yamamoto stuff but Bobby hasn't answered. Must be out fishing.

Burley, I didn't kow you had stock in Megastrike. ;D ;D

Maybe Bobby will have the technical answer,

but I'm thinking, indefinitely! Even though I

use MegaStrike nearly every time I'm out,

a tube seems to last forever. I have never

noticed any changes in the mixture other than

viscosity due to varying temperatures.

I've been using MegaStrike for 2 years now and use it all the time with plastic baits. Gives me the confidence edge! Haven't tried the "new" formula yet, but it looks like I'll be taking a trip to Dick's!  ;)

Like I tell everyone who we take fishing. "Watch And Learn" Take a plastic bait ,Jig or whatever  you are using-bend the hook so you cant hook the fish-add some Magic Goo on there- fish with the bait til you feel the strike-let me know how long he swims with that bait in his mouth- It holds on so long that even the  most novice of anglers can detect the strikes and set the hook. Its great for the kids to go fishing with.  If they aren't catching-its a nightmare.There has been a few times that I can reel them in and flip them in the boat because they swallowed it. There is an outdoor writer named JT Bagwell that wrote about the same experience that happened to him while using it . He is on Yamamotos Pro Staff. As for shelf life-You can give it to your grandchildren's grandchildren.

Thanks for the write up RW; heading to Dick's this afternoon to pick some up.

Question about the new formula; will it say that on the tube/bottle? The Dick's near my house hasn't been the greatest at keeping old stuff off the shelves. Thanks.

It comes in a clamshell pack so if it's not stapled shut, open one up and smell it. You'll live. It's not as bad as JJ's. Might have a slight garlic scent but should be more fishy. Don't forget about the Yamamoto

stuff which should be right next to it.

There could be a date code on the package or tube somewhere also.

HMMM better rephrase that CWB

Honestly I'm surprised you are the only one who caught that so far.

Maybe you're just as bad as the rest of us... or worse!

They only had three left and I snapped 'em all up.

How about a trade for that Mattlures Bluegill?

P.M. me with your address and I might be persuaded to part with one.

The only problem with megastrike is when the fish grabs it way before the hook...they don't let the bait go so I can hook em...seriously great product. Better when paired with some *** worms.

I think there was a tube in your gift bag. I'll send you another with

the bluegill. I'll try to get them out tomorrow.
