Cormorant Lures Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 I use the salt ratio posted on this site for Stix... I use Morten's Pickling Salt in the green box and flour it in a normal blender (some people use a coffee grinder)... As far as scent goes, I have not cooked it into my plastic as of yet... It's as easy as saying, A few drops of scent in your bag of baits will go a LONG WAY!!! I have only used LC's Lunker Lotion and Bear's scents... Both of their products are excellent in my book!!! There are plenty of other scent companies out there but I have not used them... KING CORMORANT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggy469 Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Thanx for the replies , i have LC's scents and havent opened them yet and i think its the garlic one that is quite powerful. My old lady complaining already so i got them in ta different sealed box ,when ya open the box look out . So i guess only a few drops gets the job done. Poor fish look out ..

Wait until you open that coffee one. Your fingers will smell like coffee all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cormorant Lures Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Wait until you open that coffee one. Your fingers will smell like coffee all day. Does coffee work? I've only used Garlic, and Craw... Right now my demand is focused on Garlic... With coffee as an option, someone must have success while using it or is it considered just another option? Let me know!!! Thanks!!! KING CORMORANT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KING CORMORANT Coffee scent is actually patented, so I guess it works well enough for some guy to invest a lot on money. I wonder if he has ever tried defending his patent.

Vodkaman Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Have you looked? Is it a provisional patent or a full patent? Big difference both cost and protection. I've just spent some time trying to find out that information and gave up. They do not make it easy. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayhorse Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I start using coffee scentafter I try the strike king coffe scent spray can directly on the bait beforecasting, they keep the bait for more time after each bite giving extra time forhook set and you come back home with this coffee smell instead of a shad or garlic scent. Take care Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Candy Bait Company Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I prefer not to use a scent but one of my baits scented in coffee resulted in a 4 pounder on Lake Fork this past Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
