New scent
Gotta idea for a new scent and the only thing I havent got figured out yet is what to use for the base of the scent. Dont want to waste alot of money on the base cause the actual scent cost enough as it is. Does anybody have a idea what I can use to for the base to make it THICK. I've already used the concentrate that I have made up and gotta say ......Scoot over Berkly power bait,cause Eagle scent is here. Fish bite and they fight to get at it. Thought about using vaseline for the base but vaseline has a odor itself. Anyone got any ideas??????

I'd consider a simple water base.......treat your lures in the resealable baggies, mush them about a bit in the scent and then with the baggies closed, float them on a bucket of hot tapwater for 20 minutes. They will take on the scent. I do this with my garlic powder and salt mixed in warm water.......they keep the smell, even after the water dries in the pack.

Never thought about the warm water trick Mac. Have to give it a try. There is actualy three different ingredients in my formula and 2 of them are apparent as soon as you smell it but the third will have to stay secret. I dont have any problem at all with sending out samples to the guys here as soon as I get this last little issue worked out. The scent already works very well being sprayed on but what I am trying to acheive is a paste that can be applied to a hardbait inorder to solve the old problem of every thirty or so casts reapplying not only resulting in a few more casts per day but also when retrieiving a lure actually leaving not only a slightly visable (due to the oils used) trail and a much more concentrated scent trail (easier for a bass to home in on). I am sure alot of you have used Smelly Jelly. That is the form of scent I am trying to obtain. The main difference between everyone else and mine is the third ingredient.

what about glycerine or sure-jell.... that would make it nice and thick with out changing the scent but im not sure how well it would adhere to a hard bait.

X2 vaseline or some variation would make it stay on the bait better, and longer. I currently use this method with my liquid attractants. Mix it up in a small plastic container or large pill bottle. Anything that seals.
