These lures were recommended to me in another fishing post of mine. I picked up some Gander Mountain brand Senko style lures, the "heavily salted" rubbery worms.
Sure enough, they're covered in salt like a pretzel. And I believe they're supposed to be impregnated with salt too. What's the point of the salt-- i think it's supposed to make the lure heavier and feel more realistic, but does it also make the lure taste better to fish? And does it mean that the lures are single-use only-- are they no longer effective once the outside salt's been washed off?
