#19 || Dr. Bruce Tufts: Do Fish Scents Really Work?
Dr. Bruce Tufts is a comparative fish physiologist at Queen’s University where he specializes in fish olfactory senses. On this week’s podcast, Bruce explains how fish use their keen senses of smell and taste. Using hundreds of captive fish, Bruce and his team undertook countless feeding trials to isolate the specific molecules that flip the switch and convince them that your bait is real. And what about garlic and coffee, do fish really find them attractive? Does gasoline and oil on your hands repel fish? Tune into this week’s podcast and get the answer to the question you’ve always wondered about: Do fish scents really work?
