Default Squid Attractant?

I'm hoping someone knows about this...last year during party boat tuna season, some of the fishermen were using a paste type attractant on their squid jigs. The stuff was like cocaine for squid. They couldn't stay away from their jigs. Does anyone know what this stuff is called? Any idea where to get it?

Smelly jelly works pretty good for squid.

Yes it is Smelly Jelly and I believe The Reel Seat has it in stock.

Thumbs up Re: Squid Attractant?

Smelly Jelly is the way to go. Try the Blue (Herring) flavor.

If it doesn't work on the squid you can always put a few squirts in your buddies coffee cup and see what happens.

There is also another product called Bio Edge. Its made in both a gel and liquid. Its made in 10 scents from squid, to ballyhoo and IMHO its more advanced than the Smelly Jelly and older products. Bio Edge has amino acids and other attractants not found in the older products.

I have fished real ballyhoo and fake ballys with Bio Edge Gel in them and on many trips the fake ballys out fished the real ballys. I removed the Bio Edge and the real ballys went hot. I am convinced and sold on it.

In saying this... I also agree that Smelly Jelly will also work too, but Bio Edge is more advanced.
