WHY PRO-CURE

THREE THINGS NO OTHER SCENT BRAND CAN SAY.

[01]

REAL BAIT

Made from real, whole, fresh bait — ground up and bottled. Nothing fake. Nothing artificial. Nothing formulated in a lab.

[02]

UV ENHANCED

UV flash carries scent visibility through stained rivers and tide-stirred bays. Fish find your hook faster.

[03]

AMINO-LOADED

Supercharged with complex amino acids and bite stimulants that trigger a fish's impulse to feed. Picky bites turn into commits.

Pro-Cure Bait Scents

Real Bait. Made in the USA. Proven Results.

FROM ONE BOTTLE IN SALEM TO EVERY BOAT IN THE COUNTRY.

Pro-Cure started in 1984 with a single product nobody else was making: the first commercial egg cure on the market. Four decades later, founder Phil Pirone still runs the show out of Salem, Oregon — and the philosophy hasn't moved an inch.

If a scent doesn't start with real fish, it doesn't go in a Pro-Cure bottle.

  • BRINE N' BITE — LEGENDARY FOR A REASON

    Old timers use rock salt. They get a tough bait and not much else. Brine N' Bite toughens your baits the same way — then loads them with amino acids that magnify smell and flavor, tighten scales, and keep your offering fresher, longer.

  • SUPER GEL — STAYS ON THE BAIT

    Sticky base that hangs on through hard casts, deep trolls, and dirty water. Charged with bite stimulants. UV-enhanced so the flash carries through stained rivers and tide-stirred bays.

  • BAD AZZ DYES — THE ATTITUDE'S IN THE NAME

    Highly-concentrated bait dye for the big jobs. Perfect for herring, ballyhoo, shad, liver, prawn. Just because the bait is dead doesn't mean it can't make an entrance.

PRO PICKS

TAKE IT FROM THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS.

Our Pro Picks come from working guides, tournament anglers, and the kind of fishermen who don't have a season — they have a schedule. When they put their name on a blend, it's because they fish it.

5 BEST ALL-AROUND SCENTS FOR FISHING

Denis Isbister · Wild Fish Wild Places

If you’re new to fishing with scent — or just want a reliable five-bottle lineup that produces across species — Denis Isbister’s go-to starting five is built from products that work on more than one fish, in more than one scenario. Every one is a Super Gel, which means it sticks to the bait and trails a scent cloud behind your lure for about 30 minutes per application.

  1. NIGHT CRAWLERUniversal freshwater starter. Real biological scent every gamefish recognizes.
  2. CRAWFISH"Every fish eats crawfish at some point when they're in the system." Broadest-spectrum freshwater attractant in the lineup.
  3. GARLIC PLUSHeavy garlic base loaded with amino acids. Singled out by Denis as the standout for trout.
  4. GARLIC BLOODY TUNAAmino acid–rich combo bite trigger. Some anglers fish it exclusively.
  5. ANISE BLOODY TUNAThe other half of the Bloody Tuna pair. Anise + tuna oil is a proven cold-water and salmon producer.

“They've got the sight, they've got the sound, and they're coming to attack it — scent closes the deal.”
