MegaStrike is an effective lubricant and "attractant".

JJ's Magic Juice is also effective, but not user friendly.

If you are married, I recommend MegaStrike. If you

are single and want to stay that way, JJ's.

Both of these products sponsor BassResource.com

I have had good luck with Carolina Lunker Sauce and Baitmate. I may have to try the one's that Kent has metioned.

haha why is jj just stank? my dad gave me some stuff that i reaked like garlic. i couldnt stand to use it. haha. reeeeeeeeeeaaaked. but at night atleast i wouldnt have to worry bout the vampires! ;)

I have tried a lot of different brand scents over the years and so far MegaStrike is the winner for a couple reasons. 1. It[ch8217]s not a mess like sprays are, 2. It[ch8217]s not so strong that after taking a whiff you pass out and fall off the boat 3. It[ch8217]s seems to stay on the lure longer. 4. Although I have not witnessed and increase in strikes, the normal amount of strikes I do get with MegaStrike the Bass eat the bait and won[ch8217]t let go which does in effect make for more hookups and less missed strikes. In fact I won[ch8217]t fish a top water frog without the stuff for I can honestly say it has increased my hookups with such baits.

I have witnessed scents such as BaitMate kick but on trout and crappies and I have had some good late night Cat fishing with Smelly Jelly, but I have yet to find a scent that actually attracts bass the way these scents attract other species. In fact I have used some in which I have seen the bass run away like I was trying to feed them the plague. In fact at one fish show I went to this pro staffer was trying to show off this product called Fish Force, only problem was every Bass in the tank ran the other way. LOL

I have one buddy who swears by Yum and another that swears by Hot Sauce Jell, so I guess the best is what you[ch8217]re confident in using.

I use the megastrike craw scent (in the yamamoto packaging) and the regular megastrike. The tubes are compact, last a long time, and it's relatively clean to use. Also great customer service from them.  I usually only need to apply it once because the baits don't last long enough to need a second application. ;)

I like BANG in the shad and craw combo scent. I like to spray this stuff in the worm bag and let them marinade  8-)

If the bite is strong, the worm will probally be destroyed before the attractant needs to be reapplied.
