Thread: Worm Oil

Anise Oil is, by far, is the best thing you can use. You can find it in any drug store.

I learned this 45 years ago from a young Bass fisherman named Bill Dance.

I used WD-40.

Go to the Drug store and get a small bottle of Gylicirin may not be correct spelling. It will be medical grade with no taste or smell. Get a bottle of anise oil. Take some of the glycerin and add a little bit of the anise oil. It will keep your plastics like new for ever. I just put mine in a zip lock bag add a few drops seal bag and just rub them around in it. Got some plastic worms in bags that are probably 15 years old and still like new.

Years ago I heard that anise oil was used as a scent for fish attraction, don't know if it is just a fish tale or not.

I use anise oil, but it tends to dry out after a bit so you have to add a bit of moisture(water). Just read the post about glycerine…think i'll try that.

Keeps em from drying out Joe?

Thank you.
