What is the petroleum jelly consistency base lure makers use for the sticky paste type lures? I’ve got a few lures that I make and I’d like them to be a little thicker like those.

I'll add Petro. I've been using lanolin, but have purchased some Petro to try in the future.

what are you trying to catch with your sticky paste type lure?
