Thanks for the info.
I haven't used scents very much, in fact for years I thought it was a marketing scheme, until lately. I got started one day last summer on the river when I was zeroing in on a zero. Some friends in the boat next to us were doing a one after the other routine. I asked for some help and they put me onto lunker lotion. Since then I've been reading up on it and some of it makes sense and some of it is more marketing. I've tested it mainly on lures. I was really convinced during this spring's Steelhead trips. I presented a big fly for nothing until I gave it a little shrimp scent, then I couldn't do it wrong and landed quite a few. I understand that Steelhead fly fishing may be different than mainstream flyfishing (pardon the pun). What do you think?
Later,
jb
