    I'm just restarting this hobby after my wife passed in August. She hated the smell of cooking fish, so I haven't actively fished in many decades. Things have changed so much. The gear I used to own as a child is now listed on E-bay as 'antique'. That's uncomfortable to find out. Your site has been compelling and completely insightful for getting back to the water's edge and giving this old hobby a new shot. Thank you for all the wonderful videos.

    I've watched hours and probably now, days of fishing videos. This and the companion video around bass returning to their same homing area are both two of the most valuable videos anyone could ever watch on fishing. Your insights and dedication to educating those who enjoy bass fishing is most appreciated. Excellent content!

    I can tell you without a doubt that bass and catfish will try to eat soft plastics infused with earthworm extract. I’ve been making my baits with it for years now, and they literally try to swallow the bait. I took a taxidermist buddy of mine fishing a couple years ago, and I would lose a worm on the strike occasionally. My buddy would pitch to the spot and catch the bass in most cases. Nearly every time, he would pull my worm out of the fish’s throat and give it back to me. Lol
    Dead sticking has also been extremely effective for bass and catfish. I don’t think that the infused scent attracts them necessarily, but I know they sure can taste it once they do bite. A study conducted by Berkley University showed that bass prefer the taste of earthworm over any other flavor that they tried. It literally ranked off the chart. It’s all in the book “Knowing Bass: The Scientific Approach to Catching More Fish” by Keith Jones.

  • @dr.jamesyohe6025
    @dr.jamesyohe6025 Год назад +39

    This sounds fine. I have used Berkley PowerBait Bass attractant for a couple of years. Fishing the same spot with the same lure. I have thrown out a soft bait without scent and not gotten hit. Then applied the scent and gotten hit on the first 1-3 casts. After a few cast later no hits, applied scent and the fish hit again. Another possibility could be that bass are only driven by scent at different times. For it to be scientific, the tests would have to replicated with the same results at different times, lake temps and conditions, in different places, etc. . . One or two studies can't be conclusive.

    • @TheRecordalbums

    scents can definitely make a difference but some might as well be snake oil. For me they can make the biggest difference when they keep spitting a jig before I can set the hook. After applying scent, they hold onto it long enough to get a good hookset. At the very least, they can also mask human scents and the plastics of artificial baits.

    @CAN43715 Год назад +12

    With the fact that bass behavior is controlled also by a 'conditioned response' to a positive or negative experience, it would be interesting to find a study on how effective scents are after a negative experience. Will a scent be as effective at catching a bass the second time around? If not, how long does a bass retain that negative experience. With the amount of use that Max Scent and other scents are getting, do they go from being a positive to a negative after a bass is caught?

    Learned this when I got my first and only pack(s) of yamamoto senkos. Everyone said they were the OG senko, so I bought some. Went down a bank I know well in a lake I fish reg, one bluegill nibble. I was smh. Should have been bass in there. Went out to the middle, back to where I started, back to my powerbaits, back down the bank. 5 fish. All legal, one about 3#. It's not a long bank, takes me maybe half an hour to work down it, but I know it very well, so make pretty good time. That was the last time I bought something without Berkely in it. You make good videos bud, keep it up. Love me sum actual data from real thinkin people instead of just, works good for me bro, you'll catch so many fish on this

    I had an old chewed up worm fishing on shore when i was little maybe 30 years ago. There was a school of 6-8" smallmouths there. When i put a drop of dr juice soft craw scent on 10 of them would show up but when the scent wears off, only 2 or 3 would. So i use scent when the bite is tough, but not when they are crushing a spinnerbait.

    Butcher Block mineral oil has tiny oil molecules that are so small that they soak into plastic worms and if scented (salt , garlic , shrimp , crawfish , etc ) it will soak in with the oil . I have used a butcher block oil based scent flavored with the above scents that lasts for years in the worms . So effective it is that I have reeled bass to the boat and watched them open their mouth and let go of the worm . They were never hooked and only let go at the last second . I also catch at least a drum , catfish , and carp every time I go . I believe scents applied in the right way where they don't just wash off works great for me . I find it doesn't make much difference on hardbaits however as I have found that sharp hooks work better than scents do .

    Buy a bag of shrimp use the juices for sent and you will not regret it. April is my year for bass fishing and I always use shrimp juice. It works very well use a syringe poke. Any soft plastic with the syringe put some juice, shrimp juice inside any soft plastic you don’t even need to jig as soon as they smelled the shrimp they were going to down it try it you won’t regret it

    Nothing to do with this video just a question and or suggestion to try. This is for the senko wacky worm set up. You can buy different color shrink wrap that you use on electrical wire. Like different color jig heads, if you slide a very thin piece of it 4 or 5 times the width of your hook in the color you want to the center and heat just enough to grab it,it will help losing or having to worry about the senko tearing as much and you have the benefit of adding color if you prefer.

    I've used oil based and I'm a believer in both scents and oil. Have u put oil on anything? It does not just wash off. Spraying scent in my bags and letting them marinate I also apply some pressure to the soft plastics exposing the salt and the oil I'm sure penetrates. Absolutely no way it all just washes off hitting the water.

  • @jameslalley3787

    Thanks for the reenforced info ! I totally agree with the findings through years of my results also !! Even in salt water scent is important ! I have dipped small strips of cloth in squid juice and caught flounder and croakers because of the same smell as squid ! Freshwater from bass to trout to walleyes scented baits and lures will definitely get more looks and pickup than the same baits unscented ! So thanks again for your affirmations !

  • @bradyobrien9
    @bradyobrien9 Год назад

    Appreciate the video. Really interesting. I was expecting the results to be contradictory to my experience, but I was wrong. I often fish the same spots at the same time of day, particularly when I have only 2-4 hours to fish. Last week I started collecting some data of my own. I generally re scent my plastics once every 10 casts or so, but the first cast after applying scent is when I catch 75% of my smallmouth Bass. Now I gotta go read the ingredients of my scent and see if it's oil based or not, but will probably be re-scenting every 5 casts or so moving forwarrd.

    The most thorough study done on the use of scent was done more than 20 years ago by Dr. Keith Jones. Everything you talk about in this video has already been discovered. Dr Keith Jones wrote a book titled "Knowing Bass". In this book he very thoroughly covers the use of scent and different types as well as debunking several myths about scent. He also invented Power Bait and Berkeley Gulp. His information is derived from his several years of original research involving multiple studies. These studies were specifically focused on a basses response to various scents.

    @americanagothic7851 Год назад

    I don’t know anything but in my time on the water, I tend to think bass are mostly visual, feel, and reactionary feeders. A lot of times when I’m not getting hit but you got hogs on the graph, I use some scent and start getting hit. I have also found fish might hang on a bit longer.
    That makes me think that when they aren’t feeling your lures or falling for the visual reaction or feel of your lure, then the scent might make them commit.

    Depends on the scent and the pressure with that scent and time of year etc. sometimes it works other times I’ve seen it doesn’t. Last few years gulp waxies worked great on bluegill, but this year they only touch maggots… I noticed there are no maggots in the stores here…. Often times I slay fish with a scent is when I use a scent that is not common in the area.

    I've used oils shoulder to shoulder, and I caught enough fish that the surrounding anglers were asking what's in the bottle. I often catch more than a limit worth of fish and not many skunks. Although, I don't really use it for bass.
    Maybe the fish are less likely to spit out the bait if they taste the oil. Idk, but I will continue using it.

    Many years ago did a study with a marine biologist (from mystic marine) on scents for bass, we concluded that Bang garlic produced the most bites consistently. The liquid not the spray. The garlic oil dissolves in water, lasts a long time and tastes like fish blood which made the fish hold on more by thinking the bait was bleeding. Awesome video Tyler

      Something about garlic makes fish eat. When I use to raise aquarium fish, there was a product that was garlic scented made to help fish eat. When my fish stopped eating I would soak the food in the garlic and they would start eating immediately

    would like to make a note that oil based scents still work as i can assume they can taste oil. anise extract which is an oil helps the fish hold on longer. fish will bite a cold solid item that smells/tastes like the oils on our hand vs a naturally occurring scent like anise extract

    There is a good chance that even oily scents work. If there is something that is infused in the oil and it can be dissolved in water it probably will. Some will also probably work it's way into the plastic.

    First off, I love these more scientific based videos. Another thing I’ve always arbitrarily and halfway seriously though was can the scent of something on my hand transfer to my bait and actually deter fish? I wondered this because in deer hunting, you have to be very careful to control scent as to not deter them….does the same thing apply with bass?

  • @GymRat339
    @GymRat339 Год назад

    My buddy and I already proved that scent work. We fished all day long with the same exact jig, same pound test same everything. I put scent on my jig, he did not. My buddy almost always out fishes me because he’s been bass fishing for way way longer. This day was very tough and after 10 hours of fishing I caught 13 bass, some really nice ones too 3-4 pounders, and my buddy caught 5. And his were only 1 pound max. This definitely proves that bigger pickier fish and more fish in general are going to bite something with scent on it, especially if it’s slow moving.

    My brother and I used to fish together. Every thing seemed to be the same but once he could not buy a fish while I could not fish away. He had filled up the boat with gasoline and got some on his hands AND steering wheel. After washing his hands in the boat his catch picked up. After lunch he picked up the smell from steering wheel and catch stopped. Keep your hands clean

    Thanks Tyler for facts!!!! Dr. Jones publish his finding (with permission from Berkley) in 2002. I appreciate Tyler, calling it out and not mincing words. For a bass to smell something it must be water soluble (FULL STOP). When I found this out, I had a hard time believing it. I always worried about gas on my hands, etc. So water soluble scents MIGHT catch fish, but oil based scents only catch fishermen. The problem then becomes keeping the scent on the bait and in a focused enough way to direct the fish properly. Jones spent a big chunk of his in Spirit Lake, IA (Berkley's home base) wrestling with this. Gulp was one of the big results. I have no facts about gulps effectiveness, but if I ever use any scents, it is usually gulp.
