Were did you find that info on flight scent I caught over 15 grass carp on one fly one after an other and most of the takes were slow and deliberate giving the fish ample time to smell the scent and choose not to take( I had very few refusals that day). I am not saying what you said is wrong I just would like to read up more on it.
