[quote name='Dr Zoidberg' post='19890' date='Jun 30 2010, 05:41 PM']Can't say for sure it works but I have a bottle of Ultrabite saltwater scent and I saturate the jigs with them every 30 minutes or so.
I've read some other squid anglers use garlic and shrimp scented sprays.
May not help but I figure it can't hurt.

I too have the ultrabite saltwater scent but I have found that the trusty garlic spray is much more effective. The other advantage is that it costs half as much and lasts twice as long!
Has anyone ever experimented with any other type of spray or mix? Another idea that I had was aniseed oil. I know from previous experience that it can be quite effective on a range of fish species but have not been game enough to sacrifice one of my expensive cloth jigs for the purpose!
