Preparation 'H'

LMAO at this one. :grin:

Professional walleye angler, Bill Kutka, tells the funniest fish attractant story you'll ever hear. This is a true story that actually happened in a walleye tournament a couple years ago.

First, a little background....
It seems that Preparation "H" ( that's right, the hemorrhoid medication ) has gained a small following as a fish attractant. Kutka was totally unaware of this fact.

At a major national tournament, Kutka was paired with an angler he'd never met before. They got out onto the water and the guy asks, " So, have you heard about Preparation "H"?

Kutka hesitates then responds, "Sure, I've heard about it."

"Works pretty good doesn't it?" the guy smiles. Now remember, Kutka has no idea that Prep "H" has any use other than as a medication.

Kutka pauses and then admits, "Yeah, I guess it works OK."

The guy smiles and in an exuberant tone asks, "You want me to put some on for you?" :shocked:

Well, needless to say there was a bit of confusion in the boat, but once they figured out what had happened, a good laugh was had by all.

So remember when your out there, never assume that everyone know the same things you do!!!

I've just ordered and started using Marie's Shrimp Scent. I haven't used it enough to know how effective it is, but it sure smells like a good scent and I expect it to catch fish for me this season.

Now, if I used Butt Plugs

, I would be more inclined to use Preparation H. [img]graemlins/lurk.gif[/img]

A couple of years ago Fin and a friend were fishing in a hogline off Bachelor Island. The friend was catching salmon while everyone else was not. The guy in the next boat asked how Fin's friend could be catching so many fish, and the friend kiddingly said it was due to the Preparation H he was using on the plug. I think he had heard about Prep H from someone who used it on the Rogue years ago. It was intended as a joke.

A year later we were in the same spot and a guide next to us was outfishing everyone about 5:1. We asked him what he was using and he wouldn't say. Then, at a private moment, Fin asked him if he was using "ointment or cream" and the guide slyly said "ointment". Broke us all up.

Preparation H has 3% shark oil. That may act as a masking agent for human scent. It also has 72% vaseline so it sticks around for a long time.

I guess it turns out to be just another flavor of Smelly Jelly.

Flavor? Smelly Jelly? are those puns intended Jack?

Wernergonefishin · 02-28-2002, 08:40 PM

That would explain why those springers have been so tight liped lately. :shocked:
