So I've know that slabsauce stays on your jigs for many casts, and I've always told myself to just re-spritz it every 12 casts, but I've never really tested the theory. It was a calm day this morn and the waters would show the oil on the surface of the water real good, so I thought I'd try it out and take a few pics. I'll admit, I did not just spray it one time, I spritzed the heck out of the jig. And sure enough, it amazed me how long the Slabsauce stays visible coming off the bait.

The above picture is the jig being splashed in the water AFTER 30 CASTS.
I'm telling you 100% these pics are accurate. This was all done continuously with a Pico Ringed Pointer. 12 casts, splashed, 12 more, splashed, and then 6 more, and splashed. Past that amount of casts, I could still see a little oil in the splashes, but really could not get it to show good in a pic. Try this experiment yourself and see. I'll admit the casts were not maxed out (so to speak). They were casual casts I would normally do, roughly 35-45 feet (I just paced it off in my yard to see how long they really were).
This is all on top the fact that if you use slabsauce on a jig, it's still oily to the touch for a heck of a long time, even days later, even after it's been used a bunch of times. The stuff stays on for sure.
And I can't say enough about the Pico Scent Rings, they are a big reason the scent stays on so long. If you have not checked them out, do yourself a favor and get yourself some.
