Default How much scent do you use?

Just a little dab will do or do you drown it?

I'm curious if too much scent is a bad thing and could actually put off a strike.

Scent a little and scent regularly. Compare instant coffee to real coffee. Would a great big plume of instant coffee scent draw you into the local espresso bar? Besides, you'll want to be checking your rig every once in a while to make sure you're actually fishing and not fouled on something.

I like to affix a bottle or two to the spreader, and then have a steady drip system to the lure. I figure that scent is simply legal chumming, so, if i'm going to do it, I'm going to do it up. Amp knows...

Then you haven't tried Marie's Shrimp Scents!

Just 2 or 3 drops on your lure. Try some of Marie's Sticky Scents, they last longer and work great on yarn, spinners or puff balls and such.

I couldn't resist answering you...

sorry,,,,
