Hi Cory, I am from Maine, and we try everything there for Trout, Bass, Salmon, etc etc, and my personal like is, garlic salt & extra virgin olive oil. Three tablespoons of Garlic Salt, 8 ounces EVOO, soak the mini marshmello's ( or rubber worms) in that for a few days, and WALLAAAAA TROUT for dinner :-) Works great for Bass too.
Will have to try this to save some $$. The stream trout I fish here in PA are quite finicky and I will probably half or even quarter the marshmallows which I wonder if it will make them more sticky. Seems like adding flour might take the sticky away tho. Thx for the video. May your lines be tight.
SUPER BUDGET INGREDIENTS: 3rd bag of mini marshmallows 3 capsules omega-3 Fish oil supplements Couple few dashes garlic powder 3rd of a packet of Kool aid shake vigorously, let marinate.
I'm sure you probably could but be carefull too much liquid will make the marshmallows too sticky to use, but it also depends on what scents you use some are greasy others are more wet and will make the marshmallows fall apart.
I saw a neat trick on a RU-vid video. Fit a teeny weeny little spring from an old ball point pen to the shank of your hook - the coils of the spring clutch the bait well.
Remember that a fish may have a keener sense of smell than a human. Look at sharks - they can pick up one drop of blood in an Olympic sized swimming pool. From a distance.
