    Default Bait Scents


    Has anyone ever tried Gulp! Alive bait spray, the Gulp! Alive Minnows or the Bobby Garland Mo' Glo Slab Jam?

    SlabSlobber has turned out to be a great attractant for a ton of guys. There is those times that the nibbles do good but Slab Slobber seems to work better for me.

    I use the nibbles most all of the time with great success, but I'm using something which is new to me called "Smelly Jelly" I am seeing good results so far.

    Not a fan of scents except for Catfish . Challenge anyone to prove they work on Crappie when your ready . Tried my own test once and it failed to help . I fished several stake beds with jigs till bite stopped then used scent/nibbles and failed to make more bite . I figure if it helped I should catch more Crappie after adding to my jig but if failed every spot .

    I'm a newb at trying to specifically target the crappies, i always see mixed comments about the use of scents or nibbles. It appears that if you are on them an experienced angler will catch alot and even a novice will catch some? even the best bait won't make up for experience and technique.
    One thing i always wondered was tipping a jig with small piece of live worm or just using a worm on a jig head. This seems like the best of both worlds old school pan fishing and newer jig head combinations. I'm sure someone has tried this out??

    Diddo. I purchased the Berkleys Gulp! Alive Minnows .... not one bite. I purchased the Bobby Garland Mo' Glo Slab Jam .... not one bite. I purchased the Crappie Nibbles .... again, not one bite.

    End result, they went in the trash can. I put a fresh hook on with a live minnow, I caught 6 in 20 minutes. I'll stick to what I know works for me.

    Have a great day! I found someone through facebook that is going to take me night fishing for Crappie, so I'm pumped about that!! Wish me luck!
