Previous Feedback  

Comments: As with all the maxscent stuff they catch fish very effectively. I like the colors a lot and the durability is solid. It seems to have a decent amount of salt too or maybe it is just the density of the plastic. Either way it sinks great and has the right shimmy. I'd suggest picking up a pack just to try. I am a maxscent believer!!

From: Elijah: Rome Georgia 8/14/23

Comments: I just came back from a big tournament where my Pro was throwing this and I was throwing a Senko. I got my butt kicked. I'm here to order, because I do not like getting my butt kicked.

From: O'Billy Dudewright: 7/12/23

Comments: Just recently tried this for the first time on two trips(large mouth). I always stuck with the Yamamato Senko. Immediately I started catching fish, and I noticed that they were 1. hitting it very hard 2. Holding on, and swallowing it. Detecting what is usually a very light bite was much easier with the way they were tagging it. I decided to do a little test and switched back to a Senko in the same color. I had a couple of light strikes, but not one hookup. Fished the same stretch of bank and grass line for a while to be fair. Switched back to these and it was like somebody rang the dinner bell. I believe they work.

From: Will: Thibodaux, LA 8/8/22

Comments: Great scent, cool colors, and this thing just gets bit. I find it a little more durable than the OG Senko. I bought two packs to try and I am here to reorder. That says something, right?

From: Jason: 7/25/22

Comments: Great baits. Caught fish the first trip out with these. They do seem to hone in on the scent. Worth the money!

From: Jason: Unknown 7/18/22

Comments: I started using the Maxscent product in 2019 (flatworm on drop shot) and my catch rate increased dramatically, even when other anglers couldn't get a bite. The past two years I started using the Hit Worm and General (5 inch) in a weightless texas rig on the Susquehanna River for Smallmouth, usually in green pumpkin and got bites even when fishing was not at it's best. Last year in the fall I caught my two biggest yet, two over 4 pounds in one day. The best color I found is the green pumpkin candy red, especially during the spawn. Not sure if it resembles crawfish or what, but the smallies killed it. This is my go to bait no matter what time of year. Now that the little General is out, I'll be Ned Rigging that this year. This product line is FIRE.

From: Randy: Schuylkill Haven, PA 2/17/22

Comments: Awesome bait! First time fishing with it caught a bunch with this senko. I will be buying more sometime. The action is unbelievable. Big berkley fan.

Form: Asher 3/2/21

Comments:  Caught my biggest 2 bass of 2020 so far with this....  This bait is amazing it simply catches fish.  I am not a good stick bait guy but this bait auto corrects for me!  Berkley is one of the FEW bass brands that actually catch bass and are tested! Cant go wrong ( i use watermelon candy here in the Midwest and they seam to like that color )

From: Unknown 7/2/20

Comments: Nice and heavy. They do smell but it's not disgusting or anything like that. Please be aware that the "Baby Bass" color is NOT like the photo above; rather, it is laminate with the bottom half being a pearl color. I ordered multiple bags of 'Baby Bass' and was extremely disappointed to find out that they're two-tone.

From: Norm: Sacramento, CA 4/24/20

Comments: While these are awesome, I did have issue 1st time using them with an O ring. I guess because how these are made, the O ring went right thru it after couple of casts. Now again, my O ring could have been too tight, but it was a standard size. Next time I will probably not use O ring. 

From: Mike 4/9/19

Comments: I have used this bait a ton.  I fished with buddies and out caught them 3-1 - both ordered bags of these that night.  Both have reported great results since making the switch from senko to these.  I will "testify" that these just catch fish.  June Bug wacky rigged with an 0-ring is hands down my go to bait.  They cast great and have a good sink rate.  I will say the Senko has a touch better action but the scent of these seem to make all of the difference.  I find they are not as fragile as a Senko but more fragile than other stick baits without salt.  The best thing I can say about these is this - if I am near to running out I buy more immediately.  If I could only have one bait - Maxscent General would be it, hands down.

From: Kevin - Chaska, MN 2/9/19

Comments: I've used powerbait dough for years on stocked trout. Graduated to the Power worms and once again, caught many. After watching Bertrand advertise these maxscent plastics, I of course needed to since the guy is a soft plastic master.. these didn't have that bad of smell surprisingly after reading a few reviews. Weight is a little more than most sticks, which made casting weightless so easy. Clear water, all year long I've caught smallmouth consistently, and my Lord, they choke it.. colors with matte option, sink rate and it's shimmy add up to more fish than senkos in 2018. 

From: Unknown: Colorado River, Arizona  1/20/19

Comments: These are great baits. They smell like something aweful, but bass love them and they don't dry out. They are heavy so they cast far and the drop rate is good wacky or weightless Texas. Don't let the smell stop you from buying some.

From: J: USA 6/22/18

Comments: Bought my first 2 bags and they literally have no smell at all. I wondered if hey were made to release scent in water, but see from other reviews that they stink right out of bag. Won't be buying more.

From: David: Cincinnati 6/9/18

Comments: If you aren't sure if you should give this a try, you probably should. Had great success with these on a weightless Texas rig. I was also not going to give them a shot, but I did and caught my biggest smallmouth ever the first fish of the day. Lasted longer than Yamamoto and the scent seemed to actually work. A+

From: Ron: Lake Havasu 5/24/18

Comments: I do not understand all the negative reviews on this bait, first off, this bait can be dyed, I always dye my senkos and I have no issues with this one, secondly this bait sinks fast, I used yum dingers in the past and it takes forever to let them sink, these baits however fall at a great rate, thirdly, the scent on this bait really helps fish hold on longer especially on very tough days where fish are short biting. they are also very durable, I honestly love this bait and plan on ordering many more packs of this bait soon. Great job Berkley!

From: Jason: Illinois 5/11/18

Comments: Great action and durability. The bass hold on to this bait longer giving you more time to set the hook. Limited colors but all the classics are available. Maxscent Is pretty stinky but that's why you buy these worms. I fished it wacky, Texas rig weightless and with a bullet weight.

From: Monty - Chicago 5/3/18

Comments: Fished it on a Neko rig in early spring up to post spawn.  Used an o-ring, size 1 Gamakatsu B10 S Stinger hook with a 3/64 or 1/16 oz Tungsten Pagoda weight on a spinning reel.  Amazing how long fish hold on to this vs a traditional plastic bait.  If I got bit and didn't hook up, I could always throw back in and catch the fish.  Only real negative are the limited colors and you cannot dye this material, but Green Pumpkin Party and Black Blue Fleck has produced well.  With the above setup I was getting 15-20 fish per bait and the more it was torn up the better it worked.

From: Matt: Broken Arrow, OK 4/7/18

Comments: Worst smelling bait on the market.  It literally is just like catfish stink bait.  Very disappointed because I have been using powerbait for over 25 years.  Very opaque, unnatural colors as well.  Complete junk....Berkley missed the boat on this one!

From: Illinois 1/20/18

Comments: Have been a Yamasenko user for years, but the Maxscent has the edge in terms of scent and durability.  The Copper/Orange is a great color for Smallmouth on Northern lakes like Mille Lacs and Rainy in that it matches the color of the crayfish there.  Also wish the Maxscent Creature Hawg came in that color too. 

From: Unknown - Minnesota 12/5/17

Comments: Good stick bait that is heavily scented.  The fish that bit this held on for a while, so they seem to work pretty well.  They are a little soft but are more durable than a yamasenko.  Good action too.  I'll buy more.
