I seldom use anything to "smell" up the lure. A few times I have used some smelly jelly but not very often. Were you using a power (gas) auger? The gas smell drives the fish away if it gets on your hands, which transfers to your bait and hook and line. When the fish start coming in and not biting, I will start using the rod tip sensor and find that they are biting, just too light to detect with the rod tip. Just a thought or two.
