I've never used them. Ya'll ever heard of using garlic flavored Pam cooking spray? What is a good kind to use otherwise?

I'm talking freshwater here, but any comments about saltwater use would be appreciated as well.

I use "Bang" shrimp flavor. I believe in it. I've seen too many times when others in my boat wouldn't be catching. I'd throw them my Bang and shortly they'd be catching fish too. The same goes for fresh water using crawfish flavor. Especially so in cold stained water. Wal-Mart normally has it.

According to research fish have a very strong sense of smell. This has been proven time and time again. That's why Hyper Grubs work. :D

Have you tested the Hyper Grubs on freshwater fish? I would be happy to try some for you if needed.

Ken,
We don't have freshwater lures at the moment, but as we grow and one day when I have the proper equipment, I would love to add a bass worm to the product line.

In salt and fresh water I use the stuff in the plastic spray bottle. Forgot the name it's every where and smells like liquorice and works pretty good. I wasn't happy with the way the scent liquid washed off quickly, so I started carrying a hypodermic needle in my tackle box and injecting the liquid in several places on the grubs, and bass worms in fresh water and it really helped.

I have drilled small holes in wood and plastic lures and stuffed them with pieces of cotton and used a needle to inject scents. Hope this helps.
