Scents or no scents...that is the question.

A crappie nibble is a minnow in a pill, they add scent to otherwise, plain jigs, with all sorts of bad smells My 2 cents!

Been a while since I replied to this thread, however since it has come back up...

Three quick stories.
While deer hunting I can smell deer around me, even when they urinate. I know they can smell me when I urinate, had one snort at me one time. Didn't know she was there until she snorted at me.

Can you smell dinner cooking?

Sharks smell blood.

So, let me ask you. Do smell popcorn? Around my house when the kids cut the cheese they would ask if we smelled popcorn. Whats the first thing you do when someone asks if it smells like popcorn? Take a big ol' wiff... Careful what scent you put on that bait. To a Crappie it may smell like a fart, and who is going to eat that?
