How I use Secret-7 (stinky hands)

Hint: Replay video or 'pause' as you read notes for each frame - I hate long video; therefore, see long notes :)

Photo 1: Just quick shot of new cleaning table for friends (open view)

Photo 2: Various - popular bait holders (see old video for more details)

Photo 3: Items include - box of treble hooks and springs - dough hooks - furry thangs(TM) for brown things that slip over treble hook - rubber bands (line / depth stopper) - pink dip tubes (go over treble hooks -

Photo 4: store magic bait in can with lid - other can is flour with garlic salt mixed in - I put fingers in flour / garlic salt then pick up Secret-7 - then I cover bait with flour / garlic salt to 'shape it' by hand - Windex bottle contains soap and vinegar water - wash cloth is used with lake water most of time but sometimes clean hands with vinegar / soap (btw: soaking hands in hot dish water is best so be good to your wife / lady and wash dishes for her before you try to touch her :) :) :) Bottom line - impossible to completely get rid of smell so using a stick and dough hooks or 'furry thang' is what a smart man does (but I'm not smart - like to use my hands cause I can put a lot more bait on each hook (and I don't care if my hands stink) - btw: auto store hand cleaner - sorta works

Photo 5: Difficult to show but the magic bait covers the bottom of the treble hooks and then tear drop shape Secret-7 is on top - end up with large tear drop shape that doesn't show well in photo. Show two sizes - one on a #4 dough hook and other on a 'plain' #2 treble hook (bigger one)

BTW: Forgot to show paper towels which I spray with vinegar / soap solution a couple times an hour i.e. wash hands very often with wash cloth / lake water - but then use paper towels to 'wipe' / clean hands a few times. Then when get home - sometimes use hand cleaner or soap hands in dish water with 'lots of rubbing' - these extra steps are taken when I plan to go out in public :) :)

Bottom Line: Baiting with magic bait / Secret-7 by hand - is 'double expensive' but makes bigger baits - - takes lot of work - hand soaking if you plan to 'go around others' :) Smart person - uses stick - dough hooks or 'furry thangs' and push bait hold into dip bait - but I would still recommend using garlic salt on bait - either plan or mixed with flour

BTW: I've used magic bait alone and seldom get as many bites as I do with Secret-7 / magic mixed - on most days - but fish are funny - one day they may like Danny King - then chicken livers - then night crawlers. I usually put 3 yoyo's on side of my boat with various types of bait to see if one does better than others - if I find a 'hot bait' - I then switch - but in long run - Secret-7 still out does others that I try. I also watch other fishermen - see what they use and if they catch fish (but I usually get more and bigger fish on Secret-7 /magic bait)
