EvaderST00,
'Vasaline' is usable but isn't the best thing going, it dissolves in water. Whatever you use should be 'water proof', fairly light weight, cheap, sort of heat resistant, and fairly common. 'White-grease' fits those requirements. So do a lot of other lubes. I like fishing reel grease! Not that it's better than all the rest, it's just cheap and common around here. Lasts a good long time too.

Rider's or Hobby World should carry what you need. If they don't have it, they can order it. Aquacraft carries the GrimRacer cable grease which they should be able to get. I've also used boat trailer bearing grease and tried others. I really liked the Prather grease but that may be hard to find. I've used Hughey grease but after a jar of it sat open in my basement I noticed that it drew moisture in from out of the air.
Vaseline won't last long as once it starts to get warm, it will melt. I tried it once on radio box seals and that doesn't get the heat that a cable will.

If you don't like the smell, maybe the fish will! Maybe they should make it rotten chicken liver scented!
