[blue][size 2]I've heard a lot of people say that that WD-40 has shark oil in it. I'm not sure I believe it--not sure I even care because I personally would never use it.[/size][/blue]
[blue][size 2]I've also heard of people using Preparation-H on their baits. I'd like to hear the story of how that was first discovered! [shocked] But again, I wouldn't use that on my baits either, even if I has a serious case of the 'roids.[/size][/blue]
[blue][size 2]I've also heard of people having success with baits that have been sitting in their oily bilge.[/size][/blue]
[blue][size 2]What I've also heard is that that this crap isn't so much an attractant as it is a mask of human odors. And I tend to subscribe to this theory. Personally, I rarely use scent attractants, but I'm not above it as long as it isn't harmful to the environment. I am a fan, however, of PowerBait, Exude, and Yamamoto plastics. And I try to be aware of and minimize the "human scent" element.[/size][/blue]
