fishrman Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hello all, I'm looking to try adding some Upper Hand Scents to my plastics while cooking. I have 2 questions; how much do you guys suggest adding for 1 cup of plastic, and what's the general consensus on the best one for bass? I was leading toward the Hawg 'N' Garlic. Thanks, Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB GONE Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hey Shawn.... I guess I can speak out on this as I have been using Upper Hand scents from day one. I use about 10 drops (I really don't measure though, just pour a little in from the bottle). Just be sure to let Doug know you want it for IN your plastic as the type for ON your plastic is different!!! I also sell HAWG Sauce on my site and it is a great add on item. The Hawg 'N' Garlic is tough to beat in my book!!!!!!! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampBaits Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 I like the 'craw and shad'...and bass magnet... And I just ordered two more kinds! You might order the small sizes and get a few different scents to see what you like. They all seem to be top of the line and Doug is a quick shipper and replies to emails very well. A++++ Service.

rr316 Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 I always kinda chuckled to myself when you guys were hyping this stuff.... reminded me of Bill dance or something.... Well I ordered a couple small bottles at the beginning of summer and I love it, try the Hawg and garlic, great stuff and cooks in real well! I use about 10-15 drops but like Ghost never eally measure and just go off smell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibby Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Has anyone tried using liquid garlic seasoning or oil of garlic that you can get at the supermarket? They have anise, garlic and all kinds of extracts. Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB GONE Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I have Dennis and they seem to cook out real fast. I am not a big garlic fan anyway so you might want to get the skinny from a few others. The rule of thumb is though, look for water in the ingredients, if it is there... AVOID THAT PRODUCT!! Adding anything to your hot plastic that contains water will make your plastic bubble, pop and maybe splatter all over U!!! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bssmstr Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Be wary of the tint of additives - they will discolor your plastic somewhat. The purple YUM will give it a violet tint and coffee grounds will make it brown. You will have to add more of the color of choice to offset it. If it has "natural" ingrediants like ground up craws or shad - the water content will bubble and boil in the plastic as ghost has pointed out.

bassassazzin Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Garlic oil now available. It is clear so you can add it to lighter baits and not have them affected. New scent coming by March: I will be introducing a Craw-Shad-Garlic....equal parts of the three. http://www.gobassin.com/bassscents.html -Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallie Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 snipJust be sure to let Doug know you want it for IN your plastic as the type for ON your plastic is different!!! [snip] Jim Does this mean we shouldn't order off the site using the shopping cart? IF so, what is the best way to get the right stuff for cooking in?

BassnRandy Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Most of Dougs scents that i have used can be used both ways but send him an email with your order so he makes sure you get what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB GONE Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 The garlic is serious strong!!! Like what Chompers baits use... just a few drops do the trick!!! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassassazzin Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Guys, Let me clear this up for good. I had carried a thicker Hawg sauce the first year or two....complaints came in from guys wanting it for hot plastic. I reformulated the recipe into a straight oil now. I only make the thick stuff by request now. So any items purchased off the website are all good for hot plastic or marinating. -Doug http://www.gobassin.com/bassscents.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassassazzin Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 In the process of introducing: BLOODWORM-SHAD in the coming weeks. I have my cousins down in Florida using the mix right now, so far the results have been very good. I am looking forward to using it and the coffee-shad soon....opening day is in a week here in Wisconsin. The Coffee Shad has been selling extremely well with the sale going on. fishing scents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
