Scents that actually helped me catch more bass

Used to think scented lures were just marketing hype until I started testing them seriously. After trying 20+ different scents across multiple fisheries, I'm now a complete believer - especially in tough conditions. 1️⃣ Berkley MaxScent – My go-to for smallmouths in murky water. Stays on longer and gets bites when visibility is low. 2️⃣ Nories Aging Bass Liquid – Works well in clear, cold water. I soak my plastics for days and it makes a difference. 3️⃣ Berkley Gulp – Leaves a strong trail. Perfect for current-heavy spots or tough bites. 4️⃣ Bait Fuel – Subtle but deadly. Great in pressured lakes or when fish are just "off." Plus, it doesn’t stain gear. 5️⃣ Bang Garlic Spray – Ideal for largemouths in the South. Garlic seems to fire them up in muddy conditions. Scents won’t save a bad bait choice, but they will get you bonus bites when conditions are tough. #fishing #scentedlures #bassfishing #fishingtips
