Do scents (as sprayed on lures work?)

How do you know bass don't hate the smell of handi-wipes?

If you don't like the smell of gasoline on your hands and equipment, that's
a good reason to wash it off, regardless of it's affect on fish.

I am a firm believer in every little bit counts. Scents/attractors rattles
and such. One thing I strongly believe in is the little wet wipes that are
sent removers. Most sporting good stores have them. I fill my boat fuel
tanks at the lake allot of times and it doesn't matter how careful I try to
be I end up with it on my hands. These hide the fuel smell excellent.

It's my determination that "scents" don't really work as much as
attractants as they do as a scent masks... When I'm being anal about
my tackle, I'll put a few drops in my worm bags of that stuff that
smells like licorice... seems to work ok, I guess... but as long as
you don't handle the baits too much I don't see a real necessity for
them.

I can see the garlic/salt infused thing being a positive, though...
Italian fish, who knew?! :^)

Thanks for the tip. Who new it was that easy. Even after washing my hands
with soap and yes water there is still a smell of gasoline. These wipes
actually took away the gas smell all together. There are also allot of times
I don't have the opportunity to wash them with soap and water. These wipes
leave no smell on my hands what so ever. If the fish can smell anything we
will most likely never know but it doesn't hurt just like I said.

Another little cheap product is Fast Orange, it cost 1 dollar for a 8 OZ
bottle at Auto Zone, it even removes the fish smell the wife hates on
your hands, when you get home.

The trick to using Fast Orange is always put it on dry hands, wet your
hands first and it just won't work
