Using
Science To Catch More Fish
By Jeremiah T. Bagwell
For decades, science
has been used in a number of different applications. Now it is being
used to help everyday anglers increase
the number of fish they are catching. There are hundreds of fish
attractants on the market today. Many of them are designed to catch
fishermen,
not fish. One attract however stands alone atop the list of industry
leaders.
MegaStrike
fish attractant is the creation of Bobby Uhrig. Mr. Uhrig spent
9 years of his life developing and testing his science
based attractant. After several different formulas had been tested,
changed, and tested again, Bobby finally came up with the perfect
formula to catch huge numbers of fish. Mr. Uhrig pours his heart
and soul into
every single tube of MegaStrike fish attractant.
The single
most important factor to the effectiveness of MegaStrike, is that
fish actually need the ingredients found in
the attractant to survive. Unlike other attractants currently
available on the market today, MegaStrike is not oil based. The
competition
uses such ingredients as shad oil, crawfish oil, anise oil, and
garlic extract
in their products. Essentially the only thing being accomplished
is adding a mask of fragrance to the baits. In contrast, MegaStrike
is
produced with Proteins, Amino Acids, and other Secret Ingredients. “Amino
Acids are the building blocks of life”, explains Mr. Uhrig. Amino
Acids are needed to enhance the growth of tissue and maintain
sufficient
blood production levels. This fact is why so many products at
your local GNC stores are advertised to
contain Amino Acids. By incorporating these ingredients into
the attractant, it triggers glands and receptors in the mouths
of fish causing them
to believe the bait is actually real. When a fish picks up an
object, its natural defense mechanism kicks in, and signals the
fish to spit
it out if it’s not food. “If fish were to eat everything they pick
up, they would be extinct”, Mr. Uhrig explains. “This natural defense
system alleviates the ingestion of anything that does not offer nutritional
value to the fish”. When a fish picks up a bait that is coated with
MegaStrike fish attractant the signal to spit out the bait is not sent,
often times resulting in the fish swallowing the bait. This will allow
an increase in the time an average angler has to set the hook. When
I say “more” hook setting time I don’t mean 10 or 15 seconds,
I mean sometimes in excess of 1 minute. The obvious result is
more hook setting
time equates to an increased number of fish being caught. I personally
believe that you could put a hook in a Popsicle stick, coat it
with MegaStrike, and have a new confidence bait. MegaStrike believes
so
strongly in their ability to help the average angler catch more
fish, that they offer a 100%, no questions asked, money back
guarantee. They
also have a toll free number for customers to use, so even the
call is free. It is doubtful that they will receive any returns
if anglers
give the product a fair shot. An extensive amount of field testing
was used to ensure the highest level of quality for the product.
Before the company even opened their
doors to the public, anglers on the Bassmaster Tour and the Wal-Mart
FLW Tour had already
cashed checks in excess of $500,000 thanks to MegaStrike. In
1999, Joel Richardson was given a sample by a friend. By using
the sample
religiously, he was able to win the $100,000 Wal-Mart FLW Tour
event at Lake Okeechobee. Marcel Veenstra credits his ability to
capture
the 2002 EverStart Series points championship to MegaStrike.
BassMaster Touring Pro Rick Morris is also a strong believer in
MegaStrike. “Believe
me, all fish attractants are not equal. This Awesome protein formula
triggers aggressive bites! Many times, stubborn bass have become active
for me using MegaStrike. MegaStrike has what it takes to be on my line
all of the time”, Morris proclaims. Other very notable names in the
bass fishing industry that have researched, tested and faithfully use
MegaStrike, are television host Orlando Wilson and Russ “BassDozer” Comeau.
Roland Martin is arguably the most famous bass angler on the planet.
He too is a proud user of MegaStrike. Roland has had a tremendous level
of success using the product. If MegaStrike can help these top Touring
Pro’s catch more fish, just imagine what it can do for the average
angler.
Recently
major manufacturers of soft plastic baits began incorporating MegaStrike
into their products. I believe the first company
to take advantage of the fish catching power of MegaStrike was Worminator
Custom Hand Poured Baits. Worminator mixes MegaStrike directly
into the plastic before it is placed into the
molds to create your favorite lures. The advantage of this production
method is an increase in the life of the attractant as well as an increase
in the baits’ ability to trigger strikes from fish. For example, by
applying the attractant to the exterior of the bait, at some point
the attractant will wear off and you will have to reapply. However,
by incorporating the attractant into the plastic, it will cause the
attractant to become rejuvenated each time the bait is used. Worminator
Co-Owner John “Tank” Tankersley told me that an effective method he
uses when fishing these baits is to take a razor blade and make small
slits in the plastic. “The more a bait bleeds scent and produces a
lifelike look and taste the more productive it will be”, John explains. “When
you combine the special ingredients in MegaStrike, with the realistic
baits from Worminator, your confidence level becomes just phenomenal”.
It’s not often that the average angler has the opportunity to speak
with a guy as knowledgeable as John Tankersley is, so I would definitely
take notes and hang on every word he says. “The level of science used
during the production of MegaStrike and Worminator baits is unbelievable”,
John said. When manufacturers use a collaboration of two highly productive
products, the outcome often times results in the creation of a product
that is unbeatable by the competition.

fish attractant, visit their website at www.megastrike.com.
You can also find a number of unsolicited testimonials on the
site. I have been fortunate enough to talk to MegaStrike Founder
and CEO,
Bobby Uhrig several times and I can honestly say this man has
more knowledge of fish attractants than anyone I have ever encountered
in
my life. His enthusiasm is overwhelming and I truly believe that
he is not in the business to make a quick dollar selling an infomercial
style product. Everyone was put on the planet for a purpose and
Bobby
Uhrig’s purpose is to help everyday anglers catch more fish.
