I stopped using Jensen eggs after coming across these beauties and then developing my own eggs based on these.

No questions about scent with these and IMO and experience OUTFISH jennys byfar.







The chum absolutely went crazy for these this year.  :)

...Please be aware that on the stamp all single eggs are being banned (in the bait ban area) regardless off their manufacturer. 

Have indeed heard the New Sheriff in town is spreading the word that although the previous Gun considered Jensens OK (also the Fed's have historically informed us they're OK as well) that he doesn't, and WILL charge for their use. :o

On the other hand, I'd like to see him successfully charge anyone with using non-scented single egg imitations! Something I now use all the time. Wanna charge me for that? See you in Court! ;D

EDIT: Hey bluesteele!



Lookin' Good! Care to share just what they are?? ???
Wondering here...

Cheers,
Nog

Hey Nog check this website out it gives a better explanation on how to make them then I could.

http://www.thefishguy.net/hot_glue_tying.htm

Glue eggs this year have done really well for me and my buddy. Steelhead, coho, chum, bows and dollies.

In the past I have used jensens alot but these glue eggs seem to really do the number.
Alot of times I think it's just having something a little bit different than the rest of the crowd.

A Conservation Officer cannot impose his own rules. So to charge people fishing with unscented single eggs is ludicrous. Just like the CO in the eastern Kootaneys that was claiming it was illegal to fish conehead flies in "Fly Fishing Only" waters.

try M&Y or any other fly shop. Should have glue in several different colours.

A question was asked about jensen eggs in bait ban areas...the answer is that they are poured with scent in them so they are classified as bait. 

Please be aware that on the stamp all single eggs are being banned (in the bait ban area) regardless off their manufacturer.  Apperantly gooeybobs are a different story.  We drifted with the murphy's in earl jan and thats the warning we were given.



This doesn't make any sense.
Jensen eggs are PVC with some scent.
So are the gooey bobs and pink worms.
The only diffence is jensen eggs are scented with anise oil which is an edible substance I guess.
