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.

All right!!! One more reason to see about running nitrous to my outboard! I can have a valve off
the tank to sweeten my soft plastics! Plus, I can pick up a little bit more speed out of my barge.

New England beat them both. See you in Gillette in January in the snow,
sleet, and wind.

I just felt it needed to be said. With the Red Sox woes, the Celtics
fallen on hard times, who cares about the Bruins when I have UMaine
hockey, and our horrid weather 7 months of the year, the Patriots are
the best thing we have going
LoL

I'm a Titans fan, but I live in Bills country, so what do I do Sunday
afternoon? Hope for a tie? Decisions, decisions.
