I have been hearing a lot about fish attractant. There are marinades, gels, and pastes. I have seen pro-cure, mike's gel scent, smelly jelly, and mega strike advertised a lot lately. Anyone tried these? Have any suggestions or favorite 'flavor' and brand? Is it nonsense or a good idea? If so, how do you like to use them? Thanks!

Megastrike is the way to go -

 

Pro-cure is decent as well - Trophy Bass flavor

Here this topic is also over on the rods reels section for some reason.

Mega-strike and be done with it.

Firm believer in Pro-Cure.  Use 3 scents, Rainbow Trout, Crawfish, and shad. Only other attractant I use is F2-Shad when throwing A-rigs, but I add a little something to it that comes from Pro-Cure.

i use megastrike and smelly jelly, i like smelly jelly almost a little bit more because it actually adds a visual element too it with the sparkles and it also it seems to rejuvanate old baits better.  one thing i hate about megastrike is the tube, i always seem to step on it and have it fly out of the tube everywhere.  

MegaStrike - original or crawfish flavor.

JJ's Magic - any color including clear.

I use bang garlic and megastrike.

I use megastrike, and I also squirt a little bang craw/shad in my soft plastics bags.

Power Team Lures Hawgtonic for soft baits.

Megastrike for hard baits, but I've been also using it as lube to get tube jigs into tubes a little bit easier.

I've used all those mentioned and then about five years ago I tried CB's Hawg Sauce Crawfish Gel...I'll never go back.

Megastrike

Or

Congealed/cold bacon grease also works and smells oh-so awesome. If you just fill a decent sized syringe (minus the sharp part) with it before you go out, it'll last you the whole day and costs $0.

Using it for a lube is a good idea. I'll remember that.

Really! Even fish can't resist bacon I guess.
