P1: I've taking a real liking to the Charlie Brewer Crappie Slider, and was wondering if I took some Liquid Minnow and added it to a bag of them sliders would this hurt anything? Hoping the plastic would soak up the sent?
P2: Does anybody have a sight selling their plastics? looking to try some new things but don't know what.
Thanks,
Nate
Some scent will effect plastic (like Gulp) and other scent will not. Best way is to put some plastic (five or six pieces) in a zip lock bag and add the scent. See how the plastic compares with some of the other after a week.
The liquid minnow is very sticky....I put it on my plastic baits while I am fishing.....It will appear to wash off rather quickly but the scent is still there...I freshen it back up about every 15 minutes.
have you tried to inject your sent into the plastic.Quote:

I never go fishing without some in the boat.Quote:

Now....a lot of plastic bait makers do that. There is also a commercial big name plastic bait maker that has some plastic baits now that are coffee flavoredQuote:

is long is the order is still on it that is all that matters.we haven't tried to add any thing to our plastic baits. We've always wanted to but never got around to ordering anything to mix in try to keep the cost down to you guys.Quote:

But is it actually the real McCoy like per instance crawdad nightcrawler Schram and many other flavors. If you have smashed up a crawdad and took a whiff of that. I believe it would be quite different. I know for sure nightcrawler is very oily and they do have a odd smell like I've told you guys before the one I would truly love to have in Lake would form is Berkeley's crappie nibbles. We Thrown the nibbles in with my plastic baits and locked the sealed bag and left him for quite a while. They will take on the order but not like if it was actually in the plastic. We never ever go fishing without nibbles I buy that stuff by the case and we use them on everything including crank baits, even if I'm fishing plastic worms or what ever.
The liquid minnow and the slab sauce that slab sells does have a natural aroma to it.
Thats because it is made with real fish oilsQuote:
