Thread: Pro Cure Supergel???

I tried the sand shrimp about 10 days ago. Smeared into the hair on a pompano teaser fly and on the jig itself. I had no luck. Maybe the fish weren't there but I wouldn't buy it by the gallon just in case. I have seen a 1/2oz white Looney jig tipped with a belly strip out fish live bull minnows but the old guy using the jig has some skills that I don't.

With that mixture might need to it cool. Would hate to spill inside the truck. Might lost some value

I use Pro Cure on all the time on my soft plastics.

This simply is not true. That is not to say that some sort of smell sauce doesn't help, but to call it a need is bull.

I use mullet procure on my soft plastic paddle tails for redfish and flounder on the lagoon when bouncing the bottom. I have not had as much success with procure as I have had using gulp baits , especially for flounder with the 3" shrimp using a jig head . Procure stays on the soft plastics really well and is extremely oily , but it just isn't as big of a hype as gulp is because it doesn't work as well in my past experiences.

That is true , you don't need a scent to catch flounder . Throwing any type of minnow imitating lure including Matrix Shad or DOA CAL paddle tails are excellent on a light jig head hovering over the bottom. Flounder are sight feeders anyway. They wait to ambush any baitfish coming in there path and then they'll attack it. Attractant helps them hold on a little longer if you're not confident or smooth enough with the hook set . Also , it's a big self confidence thing as well cause we all know confidence is a key factor while fishing .

Friends use gulp shrimp with great success for the flounder,out of a boat in the bay

i found a large tub of gulp new penny skrimps for 1.96 on my walmarts clearance rack! i guess i'll try for flounder some this next trip

They keep well to.....just put the one used back in the container for future trips(without the hook)
