I never use scent on my baits unless they are added when I buy them. I use scent on the ones I make simply because it helps keep them from sticking and drying out in the packages. I use anise oil in the bags of the ones I make, however it is only for packaging and not really to attract more fish. However some people will say anise works well.
Thanks for your input!
try sprain your plastic baits with Pam to keep them from drying out.
snake, i love butter flavor ha ha
I do not pour any plastics. Wish I had the skill set that Snake River has. Those that I have are kept in a bag with a little annise oil that you get in the grocery spices section and a little cod liver oil. They will keep your plastics soft and give off a little fishy smell. I keep them in my fishing vest pocket out of the sun. They seem to do better in my pocket than when I kept them in the tackle box. Why?? I have no earthly idea.
ship do you mix the cod liver and the anise and do you get the cod liver from the grovery store or do you order it on line?
