Man, I've been using the green glitter ones and have to say they work really well on a hair jig! Almost every fish I've caught in the last couple of months has been on that combo. Maybe the glitter looks like scales coming off or something? I'm sold!
This was from Whiskey Bay today.
I don't know what it is, but that's the only kind I use, and won't drop a jig in the water without one on the hook. I too think that the glitter maybe resembles scales falling. I've tried the gold, blue and red, and none seem to work as well as the green ones do

Dat's a nice mess. Avoiding the crowd at Henderson?
The crowd has gone south towards Bayou Benoit for a few weeks now. It's not nearly as crowded when I pass over the Henderson launch. It's more of a shade thing now!Quote:

I have been using them more. I think it helps when I get tired of putting them on I just fish with the plain jig....if the bite continues great...if not I remain resigned to applying crappie nibbles.....do what it takes to put fish on the end of the line.

I find them OK but I just don't like the mess they make on my boat carpet...and my jeans...
I don't have carpet so that's a non-issue! Just spray down and every now and then. I do get that glitter all over my face after a trip and wife/kids always joke about that!
I have never seen them make a difference. For me, the only difference is the amount of bluegill irritation.
I find that is good stuff also.....Quote:

Yep. One of our members Slab Hunter invented the bait pump that injects them in the tube jigs. Works quite well.Quote:

I have 2 of the bait pumps and I went back to using a syringe for the simple fact you can load less nibbles and use the plunger instead of screwing the end of the bait pump to get the nibbles in the tube jig. Another tip is to spray a squirt or two of Slab Sauce on top of the nibbles, It helps the plunger slide and softens the nibbles just enough to squeeze out easily.
You can order them. I think Randy is a member sponsor on here but not sure so I won't link the web address but a quick google search for the bait pump should bring it up. I will see him this weekend and I will try and remember to ask him about door prizes but I still haven't heard a definite on wheter or not the Darbonne gathering is even going to happen.Quote:
