Huh... and I thought it was just good for on your lures as an attractant and for fixing frozen car locks.

Do not spray this stuff anywhere it can end up in the water - it is 100% petroleum and is highly pollutant! I contacted the WD-40 company and they confirmed that it is illegal to release this into any body of water.

Listen to David!!! That stuff is not to be anywhere near water.

Never said I used it. I can't see how fish would find it any where near appealing. But I have seen in mentioned in a load of places.

I have heard it mentioned in loads of places and seen it used on lures and bait - it does work, but is not safe in the environment. If you want something like that, get some bunker oil or shedder crab oil (or there is even crayfish oil) that stuff all works better anyway!

Sorry Fwc, I was not saying you used it, just my standard reply - I hate pollution it realy will ruin the fishing!

[RnRCircus]

I use cod liver oil.

We've got tons of different scents up here in the Northwest, mostly for fishing Salmon. Just about every flavor you can think of.

My personal favorite is Herring Smelly Jelly. Works great when you are trolling, and isn't messy.
