gordon Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 This forum does not allow me to search for the term "oil" as it is only 3 charcters long, crazy i know. Which is why I am posting my question; The worm oil that we buy from these suppliers, is it special? What is it? Is it possible to use other kinds of oil too? My reason for asking is I am making some Shrimp and Small swimbaits for an upcoming Saltwater redfish/trout trip. I was wondering whether I could use actual fish or shrimp oil instead?

Painter1 Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I think most of it is mineral oil with additives. I would think some stabilizer would be needed with a fish oil to prevent decomposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kajan Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Just add the scent to your lures as you fish, much better. If you add the scent to the bags it discolours lighter colour lures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
