Pro-Cure G2-SMP Fish Attractant Review
Our verdict
Pro-Cure's G2-SMP Shrimp Super Gel costs $9.99 for a 2 ounce gel and holds a 4.4 star rating across 977 reviews, a solid middle-of-the-pack score. The catch is recent demand: the listing shows 0 or more bought last month, well behind competitors posting 100 to 2,000 or more, so check current availability before counting on quick restock.

977 owner reviews, more than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
A day on the water often comes down to scent as much as presentation, and gel-format attractants are built for exactly that kind of assist. The G2-SMP is Pro-Cure's Shrimp Super Gel, a 2 ounce gel packaged as a single unit and priced at $9.99. The product listing itself names it as a shrimp-scent gel, pointing anglers toward a specific flavor profile rather than a general-purpose formula.
Its 4.4 star rating across 977 reviews sits between the GCN's 4.2 stars and the 4.6 stars shared by the BTCOY2 and the 1004950, and its review count is smaller than the thousands racked up by those two but still a meaningful sample. Price-wise, at $9.99 it's the most expensive product in this comparison, running higher than the BTCOY2 at $4.56, the GCN at $5.62, and the 1004950 at $6.97.
The bought-last-month figure listed here is 0 or more, a clear step down from the 200 to 2,000 or more shown for the three context products. That doesn't erase the 977-review history behind it, but it's worth a quick availability check before ordering, since recent purchase momentum trails the rest of the lineup.
Pros
- 4.4 star rating across 977 reviews outperforms the GCN's 4.2 stars in this comparison.
- Gel format suits anglers who want scent to cling to bait or hooks rather than wash off quickly.
- Single 2 ounce pack keeps the Shrimp Super Gel format simple to store.
- 977 reviews is a substantial sample, well beyond a brand-new or unproven listing.
- Named shrimp-scent formula gives a clear flavor profile rather than a generic label.
Cons
- Bought-last-month figure of 0 or more is the weakest recent-demand signal of any product in this comparison.
- At $9.99, it costs more than the BTCOY2 ($4.56), the GCN ($5.62) or the 1004950 ($6.97).
- 4.4 stars trails the 4.6 stars posted by both the BTCOY2 and the 1004950.
- No target species is listed, unlike the BTCOY2's trout-specific listing.

Performance notes
A gel texture behaves differently than a liquid dip or a solid dough bait. It clings to a hook, jig or soft bait rather than washing off on the first cast, which matters when scent needs to last through multiple retrieves. At 2 ounces in a single pack, the G2-SMP is a compact format meant for topping off a lure rather than soaking bait in bulk. The shrimp scent profile named in the listing points this product toward species that respond to shrimp, rather than the trout-specific formula listed for the BTCOY2. At $9.99, the price sits above every context product here, so the value case rests on the gel format and the shrimp flavor rather than on being the cheapest option.
What buyers say
A 4.4 star average across 977 reviews reads as solidly positive, ahead of the GCN's 4.2 stars though behind the 4.6 stars shared by the BTCOY2 and the 1004950. The review count itself, at 977, is a meaningful sample size even if it's smaller than the thousands behind the two top-rated context products. The clearest flag here is the bought-last-month figure of 0 or more, a sharp contrast to the 200 to 2,000 or more shown across the other three products. That combination, a strong historical rating paired with a weak recent-purchase signal, suggests a product with a genuine fan base that may currently be seeing slower turnover or a stock gap rather than a quality issue.

Frequently asked questions
How good is the 4.4 star rating on this product?
It's a solid score, ahead of the GCN's 4.2 stars though just behind the 4.6 stars shared by the BTCOY2 and the 1004950. With 977 reviews behind it, the rating reflects a meaningful sample rather than a handful of early buyers.
Why does the bought-last-month number show 0 or more?
The listing shows 0 or more bought in the last month, well below the 200 to 2,000 or more seen on the three context products here. It's worth checking current stock and recent listing activity directly, since this figure suggests slower recent turnover than its competitors.
What makes this different from the other Berkley attractants on this page?
This is a Pro-Cure product rather than a Berkley one, built as a Shrimp Super Gel in a 2 ounce size instead of the dough-bait format used by the BTCOY2. At $9.99 it's also the priciest option in this specific comparison, ahead of the GCN, the BTCOY2 and the 1004950.
