Let me know what you think of the balls. I hung the maple one in 09 & didn't get the hits I had in 08 with an anise block bag I had used.
I think Jess has a good product, but that maple isn't the flavor for here. Wasn't very strong. Had a pint of the little anise gell balls spread around too but the anise sent still wasn't noticeable to my nose until right on the bait. I was also using popcorn with rassberry jello mix sprinkled on it as soon as it came out of the popper.
Next year I'll have one of their big anise balls to try.
