| How much do you guys believe that expoxy and nail polish, which I use on my bucktails to give them extra strength, smells effect fish? Should i not bother with them and scarafice strength? Thoughts? I can smelll a scent but do the fish care? |

| Hi there, I don't think the nail polish or epoxy will bother the fish whatsoever. I have been using nail polish for years in dressing my rear hooks and it never stopped the fish from hitting. Thats just my opinion but thats how I do it. Thanks |

| They are muskies, not catfish.
They are ambush predators who feed by sight and sound and opportunity. I doubt that they ever smell what they eat. |
