Rockfish and lingcod seem to like it.  I use to mix herring, shrimp and squid oil together and add a shot of WD-40 into it and they would hit that when everything else wouldnt work.  I also have caught steelhead with the same concoction by soaking a chunk of yarn behind a spin-n-glow.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

No worries Josh, we will spray the other three and leave yours alone on this trip, just for a daily experiment. Make sure you bring a good book though :chuckle:

I can't convince myself that a petro distillant will attract fish.
