Dispenser Customizations
The following have been ideas and suggestions provided by our customers. If you have something that works for you, we would love to hear about it. We encourage you to send us ideas, as well as, pictures of fish you have caught using the Berge Tackle Scent Dispenser.
Transform the Scent Dispenser into a Large Fish Lure
When going after large fish like Sturgeon, Tuna and Tarpon, you can use the Berge Tackle Scent Dispenser as a lure as well. Simply attach a hook to the back eyelet using a chain swivel, or attach a six inch line strung with red beads and a hook to the end.
Change Scent Distribution
To keep your oils and liquids longer, enlarge both the chamber and lid holes to 1/8″. Soak a piece of sponge or wad of yarn in your scent, and place in the scent chamber.
Create a Glow Effect
First, seal both the hole in the lid and the hole in the chamber. Next, take a non-toxic glow stick of your choice, crack it and cut off the top end. Pour the glowing liquid into your chamber and put the lid on. Bingo, you have a glowing scent dispenser. Works great with the frost color dispenser. Make sure you have a good seal so none of the glowing liquid can leak into the water.
Cleaning
For the best care of your dispenser clean the same day you have used them.
Option One: You can also end your fishing day by taking the lids off and fish without the lids for an hour or so.
Option Two: To clean out old scent or residual oils, rinse out dispenser area with water. Then soak over night in a mixture warm water and liquid dish soap (preferably one that cuts through grease).
Reflector Tape
Add reflector tape to the wings or body for added visibility. We recommend a clear holographic one but any style you like would work great.
Scent Recipes
Low Cost Scent
Try buying tuna or sardines packed in oil. Drain off the oil and use as your scent.
Scent Recipe Suggestions
You can buy an old blender from a yard sale, and blend Anchovies and Sardines. My favorite scent recipe to use is a combination of warmed Vaseline and Anchovies or Sardines. I heat the Vaseline until it liquefies and place that and the Anchovies in the blender, blend, then pack my dispensers full and freeze them.
