    Default Grass Shrimp Scent


    Is there a good Grass Shrimp scent available? In my area nothing beats those shrimp.

    Is it possible to make a scent using Grass Shrimp?

    Thanks…

    I don’t understand powder. What is that?

    Is there a feasible way to make scent from the actual shrimp?

    I would think shrimp all smell alike but I'm not a fish. A quick search, below are a few options.

    SHRIMP SUPER GEL
    – Pro-Cure, Inc


    Sport Fish Attractant Shrimp Scent 2 OZ. Tube
    – LIQUID MAYHEM

    Pro Cure makes a Krill powder but this is probably what you want right here

    Pro Cure Sand Shrimp.Gel

    Amazon.com

    Here's the Freshwater Shrimp oil

    HappyFisherman Thanks for the help.

    I found THIS on Amazon. It is made from Ghost/Grass Shrimp. Going to give it a try.

    I searched “ghost shrimp” and got the following.
    Palaemon paludosus**, also known as the ghost shrimp, glass shrimp, or eastern grass shrimp, is a freshwater shrimp native to North America. Appearance: Adults grow to 1–2 inches and have clear bodies. Habitat: Found in lakes, streams, and ponds in the coastal plain from Florida to New Jersey, and also in Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma”

    That's what I would try. I like their Garlic Plus oil and Shad gel, but they have several other I want to try. The Musky/Pike gel looks good for catfish. I'd like to try the Minnow gel for crappie but the Shad works good. If you want to use on plastic lures I would get the gel instead of the oil

    I called Steve with Pro-Cure. He is very knowledgeable and helpful. Told me to call with any future questions His number is 503-481-0957 in case anyone else has questions. He told me that THIS is what I want. It is made from ghost/grass shrimp (different names, same shrimp). Said it will not grease up marabou or feathers. Just ordered some.

    Sorry if I muddied the waters with all of the post.

    A special thanks to HappyFisherman!

    I’ve tried so many things and the great majority of them didn’t work. Hopefully this is an exception. LOL

    I’ll try my best to remember to post my findings.
