I've used a ton of different scents over the decades (anyone remember Sparkle Scales?). I honestly wasn't impressed with any of them.

But I gotta admit, JJ's and Megastrike are deadly. Seems I get more aggressive strikes with JJ's, and fish definitely hold on longer with Megastrike. I use both all the time now.

I have been using Megastrike for several months this year. I think it helps, like Glenn said, more aggressive strikes. I have been on a pretty good jig bite recently and they are really slammin it.

The way I see it is, Does it help? I don't know, but I know it doesn't hurt. I put megastrike on any plastics that I use that are not already scented, like Zoom, GYCB, Reaction Inovations, etc.... Baits that already have scent in them like, Powerbait, Gulp, Strike King coffee stuff, get used as is.

Where do you buy Megastrike?? I've seen it mentioned in a few posts in this topic but I looked at Bass Pro's website and they don't seem to carry it.

Buy it direct: http://www.megastrike.com/

Most if not all oils are hydrocarbons consist of long string molecules with many atoms, i.e. organic chemistry. I am not sure scent works but it doesn't hurt. So I use it from time to time sapecially with a tough bite.

If you are referring to Carbon based petroleum (crude oil) then yes you are correct but if you a referring to I don’t know something like anise oil then you are wrong.

I've used the Spike It as well, mainly to add a touch of color to a trailer.

Its not bad but Im going to give JJ's a try also.

You won't be disappointed with JJ's....It's absolutely the best scent/dye I have ever used.

Like others have said though be very careful with this stuff.
