Apdriver Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Soft plastic stores very well with nothing on it. To help bag your baits where they slide easily, just use worm oil. Over the years, I have tried scents and scented oil and have found no oil at all works best for long term storage. Add scent for short term use within 3-4 months. My .02.

MEL Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Since oil does not dissolve in water it can't disperse and attract fish - maybe one should consider something that dissolves in water and forget the oil base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
