Scottzkee Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Alright guys I am new to the plastics making scene. I make musky lures and have poured bass jigs and river weights but thats it. I bought everything to start making some plastics and now want to to know is there anyway I can add a scent to the plastic AFTER they have been poured. My worms are salt impregnated. They have color and glitter in them already. Can they be soaked in anything and absorb that scent or is it not worth attempting. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks guys and I would appreciate any help in this unique situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 I use scent in the mold much of the time and then I add scent to bags before putting the baits in them. At the very least it greases them up and makes them go into the bags easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATFLATTIE Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 I do just like jigman. I just put the scent in the bag with the baits. They really soak that stuff up. I usually put 6-8 drops in and then after a day or two I put about the same in there. That is what works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texacan84 Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 I agree with jigman and FatFlattie. After i get the lures im doing done, i use a sandwich bag and put about 4-6 squirts of my attractant in the bag first, then i add the lures then i make sure that all lures are covered by massaging them in the bag and not sticking together. In a few days i follow the same process. The lures soak it up pretty fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottzkee Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 So the plastic will absorb the scent over time? Correct me if I am wrong but here is what I will do. 1) Place unscented worms in ziplock bag 2) Add 3 to 6 squirts of my scent 3) Wait for aprox 3 days Is 3 days appropriate?
