Combine Pro-Cure Bait Oil With Worms For Cold Water Trout!
T
rout anglers are well versed in
applying Pro-Cure Super Gel to
their lures and baits, yet most of these
same anglers never use Pro-Cure Bait Oil
and that a big mistake, particularly if the
water is cold.
If I’m bait fishing from the bank,
especially when the water is cold and the
trout are lethargic I like to inject my night
crawlers with bait oil.
Now, most bank trouters inflate their
worms with air to float them off the bot-
tom. Since oil is lighter than water, inject-
ing worms with oil causes them to float,
but you get the added benefit of creating
a scent trail as tiny oil droplets seep out
of the worm. This oil and worm trick has
helped me enjoy productive trout fishing
in the dead of winter when guys fishing
around me were getting blanked.
A variety of different scents work. I’ve
enjoyed success with Anise Bloody Tuna,
Sweet Corn, Carp Spit and Garlic Plus.
The best advice I can give you in terms
of the scent, is to have a couple “sweet”
scents and a couple “robust” scents. From
that point forward it’s all about confi-
dence!
