Been wanting to try Gulp Marinade as a teaser scent to our lures. But, not certain if fish would like it. It has a garlic scent similar to the Berkley Power Bait we like to use when trout fishing. Decided to test the Gulp Marinade by applying it to a fishing fly and observe how fish react to it compared to the same fishing fly but without the scent applied. Rigged two scuds to the underwater video rig we put together for filming underwater action shots of fish. Key take aways this round: Results were inconclusive given only one test. But, it does look promising. Do need to continue testing before we make a suggestion. It does appear that fish like the Gulp Marinade, tending to prefer the scud with scent over the scud without scent after the initial application. Once the scent washed out, it was not certain if there was a preference for one over the other. Do need to re-apply the scent as it does wash out. Bait still is preferred over artificials. Next round, plan to: Use a smaller hook...
