Abstract

Powdered, high molecular weight, water soluble, membrane film forming polymeric materials are blended with powdered marine life attractants to produce a free-flowing powdered membrane film forming marine life attractant formulation. The formulation can be applied directly to the wet surface of a lure substrate, forming a gelatinous membrane film on the surface of the lure. When the gelatinous membrane film coated lure in immersed in water, an effective track or trail of marine life attractant is gradually released into the water. By careful selection of the polymeric materials, a formulation can be prepared which will produce a slimy textured viscoelastic gelatinous membrane film on a wet surface or a lure substrate.
