raywillett Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 just curious if I should be adding scent to plastic when I am cooking? If so what kind is best. I used to do it , but got away from it. I currently just spray the inside of my bags with bang scent when bagging. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking Dead Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I place all the baits in a storage container after they have cured in the open air. I then put the scent on the baits in the container and let it sit for a few days. I then remove the baits, as needed, to bag and if need be, put a small drop of scent in the bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsworms Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Once again, I think this is a personal preference thing, but I was a firm believer in cooking with the scent in them. We have done several tests on our river and baits with scent cooked in always won. If you do decide to cook it in, just make sure you are not using water based scents. Nice little explosion if you do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raywillett Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 thanks! Has anyone used bait junkies sent or upper hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATFLATTIE Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I have used the upper hand coffee shad and I really like it. I liked the coffee scent before and it's just what I have confidence in. Plus I absolutely hate baits that smell like garlic. Coffee is way easier on my nostrils haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I used Upper Hand's Hawg & Anise and their Bass Sauce. Had great luck with both. Also used Pro Cure, which is dynamite stuff as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driftwood Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Cooked in has always produced better for our baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camrynekai Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I prefer to cook my scent in. I add my scent right into my 5 gallon containers as soon as I receive them from my supplier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATFLATTIE Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Coffee shad doesn't have a bad smell at all. At least not in my opinion. It can get sticky if you over do it with the scent. I get it from Do-It. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upper Hand Scent ...... http://www.upperhandscent.com/ As for the coffee scent, it's not nearly as bad as you might think. In fact, it actually goes well with a cup of coffee. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishon-son Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 bang works great for me..just spray it on or in the bag......but, i have found that bears garlic scent is 100 times more stronger and just a few drops in and look out.....wow its really strong....you wont use that stuff in the house twice.....the garllic scent works great for me on tubes and craws for muddy or dirty water...
