FISH

What kind of fish attractant does everyone use and do you use it all the time and how often do you reapply and do you use it on every lure you put in the water ???????

crappie nibbles! made by berkley and the only thing you ever need. i've tried a bunch of the sprays and they are okay, but the nibbles are easier, less messy, and you always know when it's time to reapply. you will want to dry them a little before you use them to make them stay better. i prefer to dry them some before i go fishing, but lots of guys just dump some on the lid and let them dry in the sun (works better in the summer). also crappie bites by magic bait are great attractants, but not as easy to deal with. you will need to dry them much longer than nibbles (at least overnight, usually more) to the point they are very firm on the outside otherwise they come off too easy. the thing i like about them however, is they smell more like nasty shad, and they "melt" in the water faster so you are getting maximum scent dispersion. i will use nibbles and bites interchangeably but you will find most guys prefer nibbles for their ease and they probably work as well. plus nibbles have so many more options in colors, glitter, glow, etc. Bites are half the price though. hope this helps
