Hammy Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 i read that company's use "food process" type salt to put in with their worms? so if i bought some salt from the store would it work or should i just purchase some from a tackle company?

Sure it works, many people have been doing this for years. Please choose non-iodized as iodine can kill fish. I use non-iodized table salt ground to a fine powder in a blender.

nova Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Just look on the package and if it says 100% salt then it's ok to use. You would be surprised what is added to salt by differant companys. Take a look at the ingrediants sometime; even sugar is added. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcline Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I use Morton's Pickling/Canning Salt right out of the (green) box. I use Mortons flour salt(mostly cause I get it free). It suspends well, but does make the baits a little more opaque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nova Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I use Morton's Pickling/Canning Salt right out of the (green) box. Pickling salt is 100% pure salt. I use it as well. It's very coarse salt and must be floured before you use it. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 why do you guys add salt to the plastic is it for taste ? It must also help the flavor, because bass hold onto a Yamamoto senko or Ika a lot longer than plain plastics. I think the salt probably tastes like blood to them.
