Вот что написал один из них.
I've ranted on this topic a couple times!
It's obviously personal opinion...and if it gives you confidences...then it works.....but...
Salt was added as a cheap filler to replace expensive plastic. It is a common practice in the plastic's industry (disclosure: I work for a high technology engineered plastics firm) to add "fillers" to displace expensive resins (plastic).
It make the baits significantly less durable ...and they sold more.
Some brilliant marketing type guy ...such as myself ...came up with:
"fish hold the bait longer"
"tastes like blood"
"Immediately seek medical attention if your erection lasts more than 4 hrs"
(I bet the bell rang big time when the Marketing guy heard some Doctor/Lawyer/Regulatory person say that for the 1st time!!!)
.... to rationalize why they were making their baits so fragile that you could only catch one fish per!!!!!
There is little scientific proof that it makes a difference....but some may argue this based on "experience" on the water.
If you want to adjust your sink rate....use a heavier weight! If you want it to sink really slowly...use a lighter weight! If you want it to float...DON"T use salt! If you want it to sink very..very slowly....Don't use the salted ones.
Personally I don't like salt because:
1. I want to adjust the sink rate to what I want it to be
2. It makes the baits very fragile. One bass per bait is a rip off!
3. When the bass throws the bait I want it to float so I can go over and retrieve it and use it again...and again....
4. It causes hooks and lures to rust!!!!!
5. What if the bass don't like the taste of salt???
6. Ummm ...ever wonder if bass have become conditioned to AVOID the salt smell??? After you've been wacked a few times by those salty tasting things....maybe they learn to avoid them???
Thank you for the opportunity to rant again!
