Fish attractant and scent masking composition

Abstract

The invention provides a penetrating scent/taste attractant for use on fishing lures. More particularly, a scent attractant is provided that actually penetrates the surface coating or the actual bait body. A combination of a scent attractant and a dye for application to a bait to provide a penetrating scent and a permanent color change simultaneously is also provided. Also provided is a formulation for the application of a scent attractant with or without a solvent-soluble dye, singularly dispersed or dissolved into a solvent capable of attacking the surface of an artificial bait and promoting a migration of either or both the fish-attractant and dye below the surface of the lure. A scent attractant and/or dye in combination with a water-insoluble polymer in a volatile solvent is also provided which is capable of forming a coating of scent attractant and/or a simultaneous color change to the surface of a metal or solvent-impermeable lure.
