Lure Scents For Bream

[coastie]

Hi all

Its been a shitty week for weather here on the central coast and it doesnt look like its going to get better any time soon.

But i was wandering does any one use lure scents to attrack bream.And are they worth using?????

I use megastrike both on HBs and SPs but not on gulps

I've used yum, stimulate spray and various others,

All I can say for sure is it doesn't stop them biting your lure.

Even for just the extra confidence you feel casting out a extra scented lure it is worth it! every bit helps.

cheers

The gulps are heavily scented so there is no need to add any. I tried the gulp sandworm on bream for the first time last trip and it was the only lure to be hit on that day. My usual favourite sps didn't get a touch.

I would just stick with the GULPS mate, they are proven and consistent fish producers and I believe, you dont really need any thing else to attrac them.

If you can catch em on a GULP, walk away mate lol!

Sounds like gulps are worth trying.

Thanks for tips.

When you are working the gulp sandworm, what sort of retrieve do you use?

Hey coastie,

I've found that the slower the better with your retrieve, short soft one hopes usually works best and a lot of pause inbetween as well, you can also use the large Squidgy Wrigglers (100mm) trim the head off and the top part so that the profile is more like a worm, these work much better in faster current and structure a little bit more action with your retrieve but not much more, like an extra hope or to between pauses, I also find that appling Stimulate gel scent aid's to your hook up rate too with the wrigglers not the gulp. With the Gulp worms use cammo in dirty water and natural in clear water and only those 2 colours, wrigglers use bloodworm in the clearer water and flash prawn in the dirtier water red rum is another good color but in the dirty water.

Hope this helps

Jason.
