Default Information

On Okeechobee in October, I tested this concept by liberally coating my
plastic worm with sunscreen. I've read where sun screen with PABA is a fish
repellant. The bass there must not have read the article, because I caught
as many or more bass on that well-protected worm as Justin Hires or I did
with any other bait in the two days we fished with Moe.


That's just cause those bass' lips were getting sunburned (happens a lot in
those shallow Florida lakes), they just wanted some protection on them, and
seeing as they have no hands, your sunscreen worm did the trick when they bit
it.

Rich claimed he could soak his baits in gasoline and fish them with absolute
confidence, and I reckon he'd be right


In a recent study by Berkley biologists, the popularity of Nascar has spread to
southern bass. They are currently working on Berkley Vroom worms that come in
87 and 92 Octane, as well as nitro and methanol. Expect these scientific
results to show up in BassTimes soon.

So Jack, I'd say the scent won't hurt any, but I wouldn't count on it adding
anything to your productivity.


Scent and/or flavor/salt give me more confidence. I just can't fish a plain
'ol soft plastic or jig without some kind of scent and/or flavor.
