Menhaden/Bunker Jell

I use the Menhaden/Bunker Jell from Atlas Mikes. To give credit where credit is due, I got the tip by reading an article by Charlie Soares. I had trouble finding it so I e-mailed him and he sent me some. I had given him some plugs one time and he remembered me. Besides the hook holes I put some on the tied tail (another reason to have a tied tail). The jell seems to last longer than the oil. As I have said before it makes a difference. I caught a nice striper on Cutty this past fall and when my buddy came up to me the first thing he said was, "You still using that bunker jell?" I smiled and said, "Everytime". It can be a pain when you are out on a rock in the dark, in big waves and you are trying to squeeze a little gell into hook hole. Sometimes I go for awhile without a hit, put some gell on and get a hit the next cast.
