Rub your hands down with some kind of fish attractant to eliminate any foreign oders from your hands. It sounds kinda stupid but unwanted smells will inadvertantly transfer to your baits without you realizing it. Its all a matter of whether you want to catch fish or smell good. You will learn with a little practice to get a dip of snuff before hand or eat a bolonga sandwich before you get that crap on your hands or maybe like me you just develop a taste for the stuff. Smelly Jelly is my favorite but it takes some getting used to.
Good fishing,
