Xtreme Scent? O Yes O No
Extreme Stink? O Yes O No
Free yourself from the stink and embrace the power of the scent. Fishbites Xtreme
Scent Release lures give you the scent that melts in the water, not on your hands.®
Fishbites Xtreme is made from our proprietary, biodegradable hydrogel that locks
the liquid in the lure until it hits the water. Once immersed, the water-based plastic lure
begins unloading massive doses of scent that over 90 species of freshwater and saltwater
fish have found irresistible! Visit Fishbites’ ICAST booth #145 to see the new shapes and
colors for 2009 as well as our popular line of cut baits and take advantage of Super
Show Specials. All Fishbites products are made with pride in St. Augustine, FL USA.
