When surf fishing the Gulf Coast I use a product called Fish Bites. It's a gelatin base over a cloth mesh and comes in shrimp, clam, and in other flavors and various colors. Because it's a gelatin, it releases the scent/flavor slowly and the mesh keeps it on the hook while it's washing around in the waves. Absolutely deadly for pompano, whiting, sheepshead, spec's etc. The saltwater formulas don't work well in colder freshwater but I understand the company is working on some freshwater products other than catfish bait.
