I couldn't buy a bite even though I was 10" away from him and he was "vexilarless" I had the pleasure of watching 200 trout come up and sniff my bait and then go off to bite his and his sons jigs. [/reply]
I have had the same problem, setting their watching every one catch fish and nothing hit my line. I have fond something that works to take the skunk off of the jig. I now carry the alcohol hand sanitizer in my tackle box. It does not always help but it has worked more than not. I rub it on my hands and with my hands still wet I rub the jig or rig up a new jig with clean hands. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you or anyone else.
