Overview
The Berkley BGTGC2 is a chartreuse fish attractant sold as a 50 gram crystal formula, targeted at trout fishing. It comes as a single jar sized for baiting hooks or adding scent to lures and soft baits.
Berkley markets this within its trout-focused bait line, using a crystal format rather than a dough or gel, which changes how it's applied and how long it holds scent in the water compared with paste-style attractants. The chartreuse color doubles as a visual cue alongside its scent trail.

Who it's for
Trout anglers who want to add scent and color to bare hooks, jigs or soft plastics. Not intended as a standalone lure or for species outside Berkley's trout-focused formula.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Compact 50 gram jar, easy to carry
- Chartreuse color adds visual cue alongside scent
- Formulated specifically for trout
- Limited to trout per the product's stated target species
- Small jar size may need frequent restocking on longer trips
Performance notes
Crystal-format attractants disperse scent gradually in water, which can extend how long a bait holds fish interest compared with a quick-washing liquid, though how it performs depends on water temperature and current. The chartreuse coloring adds a visual attractant alongside the scent.
