SeaEagle Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I am working on a soft plastic sand crab bait. I'd like to sent them but have no idea what would be a good sent to use that would match a sand crab. or for that matter would be good for perch. any ideas on an idea on what sent you think would work best?

Salt water fish eat just about anything. Nothing else to do besides try not to be eaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al, do you even have a problem with Pro-Cure scents going bad, or turning moldy/rancid? I left a bottle in the boat over a season (I forgot it was in the compartment), and when I opened it the stuff had turned a nasty dark yellow, and stank.

Walking Dead Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Mark, dark and yeller is not good but the stank thing should be ok or better. Probably had juice from a fish or kritter in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm.......not that I can remember, but I kept all mine in 1 gallon zip bags on the shelf in my garage. Maybe that has something to do with it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
