I know this question gets brought up time to time but it seems like this is one of those subjects where allot of peoples opinions change often with their experiences and results.

I honestly rarely use scents at all. I have purchased quite a few different kinds but can never seem to consistantly use them. I bring them with me but usually only apply it once or twice through a fishing session. My biggest issues have always been with how quickly they seem to wash off and fade away, especially on rubber baits.

So what are you using currently for your trout sized swimbaits and/or hardbaits. Are you using them to mask a scent, add a scent or just for tooth lubrication? Is anyone mixing a couple brands together to make a super scent? Maybe adding a few extra ingredients? How are you applying it to your bait?

I'm curious to hear what people are currently using, thanks for any additional input!
