Scents?

[The Iceman 6]

You'll get them Chris, keep at it. I would rinse all the plugs in fresh water, let them dry in the sun, then apply the scent. Just a matter of time. Are you mixing up your selection? Like Big Swimmers, Small Swimmers, Needles, Danny's, soft plastics, tin. Like I said, I think you're just in a funk and once you break the seal the flood gates will open. Best of luck. If money's tight no need to buy a dozen eels each time out. Buy a few each night and you'll know if the fish are there.

I use scent in the sweetwater for both stripers and others. When I start hitting the salt, I don't use it. Maybe I should??? Anyway, it can't hurt. The only problem with that stuff is it can make certain knots slip with certain braided line out there. Make sure you check your knot. I keep all of my lures hanging in the cellar every year. I don't think that matters. But who knows????
