When you want a little more visibility than white but still keep that proven anise scent, red is a strong middle ground. It stands out just enough in Alaska’s lakes and rivers without looking over-the-top, while the anise scent gives trout something they recognize and trust.
This is a great option when fish are cruising but being selective—giving you both visual appeal and a scent trail that works in cold water.
Thread one or two mallows onto your hook and fish it with a sliding sinker or split shot rig. Let it rest on the bottom while the bait floats just above. You can also suspend it under a bobber when fishing shallower water.
A versatile option across a wide range of freshwater conditions:
● Rainbow trout
● Arctic char
● Clear to slightly stained water
● Stocked lakes and roadside fisheries
Primarily rainbow trout, especially when a slightly more visible presentation helps trigger bites.
● Bright red “glo” color for added visibility
● Anise scent attractant
● Floating marshmallow-style bait
● Easy to rig and beginner-friendly
● Clean, dry bait formula (no mess)
● Size: 1.5oz
● Color: Red
● Scent: Anise
● Bait Type: Dry floating bait
