Cheap Scent Alternatives

How do you make your own scent.

y would u want to mos scents are a waste of time. just buy yum bait with their scent or stuff like that. ive never used scents besides the ones that come off from new baits.

[FishinMommy]

Welll it seems like the scent on the worms is not powerful enought to me and something extra might help after fishing a while with the same worm.

take a spray bottle like a cleaner spray bottle (be sure to rinse it out a few times) Then put some Vegetable oil or cooking oil in it then take some chopped up garlic fresh or already chopped in a bottle! If ur using chopped in the bottle try to get more of the garlic water than the garlic and put that in! Put the lid on and shake it up real well!!!! If ur using fresh chopped garlic let it sit over night after a good shakin if using the bottled stuff just shake it up and ur ready to use it!!! Just spray it on ur lures and ur ready to catch somethin'!

Do you guys think maybe like taking some vegtable oil and adding some fish oil supplement stuff to it and some garlic salt would work?

[coolman]

I just told u how to do it > > > > > If you want u could add some salt too!!! Havent tried it yet but have been thinking about it for some time now!

Do they really hold on to baits sprayed with Wd- 40 because I have also heard about this from others.

chris,

I've also made the veggie oil +chopped garlic one before, and so far it's lasted a few years and I've still got half of a large bottle.

What I like to do is spray it inside my bags of soft plastics so that the scent gets deep into the lure and stays longer.

I think it is worth it!

Just made some scent up today. I used some fish oil tablets some vegtable oil some Garlic salt and powder and some vanilla extract to get a sweet smell like live fish eh and some green food coloring for effect. Think it will work? Chris didn't have any fresh Garlic around.

i dunno if it will work cuz it might clog up ur spray bottle but sounds pretty good to meeee

[juicy]

Chopped garlic will be better than the garlic salt like posted above, your sprayer is going to get clogged really quick!

[coolman]

Hey lone Archer i tried spraying the stuff in my bags and they all started to bleed their colors and made a real big mess so i dont do that anymore :'(

[FishinMommy]

I am using like a Soap dispenser so i don't think it will clog up we will just have to see I guess

[Bassin_Dude]

its not worth it!!!!! scents dont make much difference. some people use it cause they cant catch bass and they think this magical smelly stuff will catch bass for them the only time i would ever use scent is on tough days like after a cold front 8)
