Halibut
Halibut

When you are targeting big halibut there are two things that really turn them on, a heavy scent trail and movement. For that reason many knowledgeable anglers use the best fresh bait for halibut, or they jig metal jigs or large plastic scampi tails. Common baits are large herring whole or cut up river shad, salmon bellies or pieces of fresh salmon carcass, salmon heads, and tuna scrap. In recent years tuna bellies have become very popular and have been extremely effective. All of these baits can be enhanced by injecting baits after rigging or marinating baits in advance of rigging. If you are jigging, adding Super gels in the right flavors can also make a huge difference. And remember all of the Pro-cure Bait Scents are UV enhanced, so fish can see the reflective UV light coming off your bait or lure up to a depth of 1,000 feet, and laterally as far as 500 feet.

MARINATE YOUR BAIT:: Marinate or inject your baits with Pro-Cure! The secret to attracting big fish is to put down more scent. Use Butt Juice, or Bait Oils in Garlic or Shrimp.

BABY OCTOPUS: Our baby octopus are super tough little critters, and once on a hook you literally have to cut them off to remove them. We almost never soak a bait without tipping our hooks with one or two of these little critters. We recommend marinating these baby octopus by pouring out all of the brine, and then rolling them in any of the flowing bait oils, and putting them back in the jar to marinate for a few hours. We use Butt Juice, Garlic Plus, Squid and Sardine Oils, and have been extremely successful.

SUPER GELS: Super Gels are the perfect compliment for metal jigs, lead jigs, and soft plastics. They are also very effective when rubbed onto super braids like Power Pro and Tuff line. Anything you can do to add extra scent will be more attractive to big halibut. In the last few years we've found that large halibut have a real fancy for garlic and anise scents. Two of our favorites are the Garlic Plus Super Gel and the Butt Juice (has anise oil in it) or the Anise Plus Super Gel.

BAIT OILS: Marinating baits over night or for a few hours works best, but baits can also be injected with oils after they have been rigged. Our heavy liquid Butt Juice has been a legendary performer in attracting huge halibut, as has our Garlic Plus oil. Sardine and Squid oil are also favorites, and the word is out that like Chinook salmon, halibut too love Pollock oil.

BAIT SAUCE: When injecting baits with oils the performance is boosted way up by mixing oils 50/50 with Bait Sauces. Bait Sauces are a blend of fish oils and whole ground up bait, and they are all super charged with amino acids. Mixing Bait Sauce with a corresponding Bait Oil really improves your scent trail. Mix Herring oil and Herring bait Sauce 50/50, or do the same with Squid or Sardine oils and sauces.

 

ANCHOVY: A favorite food source for California halibut. Anchovy oil can be squirted onto live anchovies for an improved scent trail, or used to marinate cut and chunk bait. It can be injected into dead anchovies too. Use the Super Gel on metal jigs, swim baits, and scampi tails.

BLOODY TUNA: Halibut love tuna, and this is the strongest, most powerful tuna blend available anywhere. It's made from all the dark meat trimmed off when processing fresh tuna. There are many ways to use our new tuna products. Use the Bloody tuna oil to marinate or inject into baits. Use the Bloody Tuna Super Gels on jigs, swim baits and soft plastics.

New Blue Crab

BLUE CRAB: Crab is a favorite of halibut, so use the Super Gel on jigs, swim baits and soft plastics, or inject baits with the Blue Crab oil. Don't be afraid to inject crab oil into a chunk of baitfish as the halibut just aren't that smart.

BUTT JUICE: A standby favorite for monster halibut. Marinate chunk baits, whole baits or salmon scrap by splashing on the Butt Juice Heavy Liquid, or it can be injected into baits after rigging. Halibut love the stuff. It's just as attractive a flavor in Super Gel, and works great on jigs, swim baits and soft plastics.

GARLIC PLUS: When we heard halibut go goofy for garlic we thought it was a joke, but once we tried it we stopped laughing. Some days (some days) they go nuts for garlic. Not always, and not every day, but when the bite is garlic you'll be heroes if you have some of this to splash on your baits or artificials.

SARDINE: Raw sardine oil has a flavor all its own. When stinky is called for, sardine is the answer. We mix the oil 50/50 with sardine Bait Sauce and it's one of our favorite scents to inject into herring and baby octopus. Halibut love the stuff. It is also one of our most productive Super Gels for halibut, ling cod, black sea bass and rock fish. Never leave home without it!

SQUID: What bottom fish doesn't like squid? Halibut sure do, especially when squid are present. When a halibut or bottom fish hits the deck and starts coughing up live squid we all reach for the Squid scents. If jigging, the Squid Super gel is awesome. If soaking bait fish like herring, anchovies or shad, don't hesitate to inject them with a 50/50 blend of Squid oil and Squid Bait sauce.

Bloody Tuna Powder

 

BLOODY TUNA POWDER With Amino Bite

This powder works great as a marinade. Lay out herring, anchovies, salmon bellies, chunk shad and liberally sprinkle them with tuna powder. If the baits are extremely dry, wet them slightly before sprinkling on the powder. This powder will impregnate your baits with an extremely potent tuna flavor. Another really neat trick is to get your baits damp by wetting slightly, then sprinkling on the Brine n bite powder to toughen your baits and add amino acids to them. Immediately sprinkle the same baits with the Bloody Tuna Powder. Keep baits cool, and in 4 to 8 hours you'll have super tough baits that reek of tuna. 8oz. Shaker Bottle - $8.95

VACUUM-PACKED CURED BABY OCTOPUS

Marinate or inject with bait oils and tip your hooks with these tough little baits. Many times halibut will strip off your herring, shad, salmon belly or squid, but the baby octopus will still be there. When fishing 2 to 4 pounds of lead at 500 feet or more it's nice to know you still have something on your hook a halibut will come back for. A must for deep water fishing. Packaged 8 octopus per jar. $15.50 per jar

Brine 'N Bite

 

BRINE 'N BITE BAIT BRINE

Absolutely superior to rock salt brines!
Adds powerful bite stimulants to baits -
Produces a very hot bite -
Toughens baits - tightens scales - adds shine

Here's a great trick to toughen up your herring or anchovies. Instead of using the Brine 'n Bite powder in a brine solution, just sprinkle it generously onto your baits, stacking them in layers in a plastic container, and refrigerate or place on ice. The dry Brine 'n Bite powder will really firm up your baits. At the same time you can sprinkle baits with the Bloody Tuna Powder to add a killer tuna scent to your baits.   20 oz. plastic jar - $10.50
