Actually it is a myth that it contains fish oil. It stands for Water Displacing 40 (the 40th attempt at the formula before they got it right). It does work good in a pinch, or to even kill all the bad scents that your trying to get rid of.


Campdog is correct! I had to hunt it down.


What a Fish story!
Myth: WD-40 contains fish oil.
Fact:
Consumers have told us over the years that they have caught some of the biggest fish ever after protecting their fish hooks and lures with WD-40. We believe this legend came from folks assuming that the product must contain fish oil since it appears to attract fish. Sorry Charlie®, it just ain’t so.

WD-40 Company has taken steps to respect and conserve the environment, and encourages its users to do the same. While WD-40 can be used to help protect fishing equipment from rust and corrosion, WD-40 Company does not recommend using WD-40 to attract fish.
 
I made the mistake of putting scent on a hoochies only once, that cured me. Now the scent only touches the corn and if done properly that is enough. I also no longer use gels, way too messy and hard to clean. I look forward to trying some water based scents this year.

I used the water based scents last year by adding them to my gulp maggots. I really seemed to work great
