This is probably a well beaten horse,but .If you only had one or two scents what would you likely reach for? A good one for me this summer was Mike's Glo-Anise Shrimp(or is it Mike's Glo-shrimp Anise),either way it sounds funny and works well. TM
 
I' actually know the folks at Pro cure very well, but had good luck with Mike stuff no relation ha
 
# 1 garlic powder right out of the cupboard put it on the night before # 2 Tuna oil. I have several other scents I leave at home they don't work for me.
 
Glad to see someone else use's what my buddy and I call "Magic Corn" but we use a generous spoon full of minced garlic instead. Often wonder if it would work just as well without the tuna oil but why mess with a good thing? lol

I have only been using Pro Cure products, with great success (trophy trout, anchovy, herring) but has anyone noticed a difference between the others? like Mikes or Smelly Jelly, and do they last any longer, shell life that is.
 
I've been told the best way to preserve your scents is keep them refigerated at 40% if not replace every year/my wife a firm believer to replace every year. because we don't keep them at 40% degrees. We just leave them in the boat and such.
 
I like to use daphnia. I us a mortar and pestle to smash up frozen sterilized daphnia (hikari bio pure brand) and let is soak into the corn. I make it at least a little over 24 hours before using it fishing. I am sold.

Where in the world would you find those little water fleas to do that with? Who sells something like that?
 
Pet stores such as PetCo have them in their fish food freezer.

I have tried this but with little success, I think I may have the recipe wrong.

Remembering, what is your ratio of daphnia to corn?
