Once broken I don't think you'll be able to maintain a fix for very long. It will be weaker regardless, and you'll just snap it again more easily. Wayne P. had the right answer!

Hey Luke I have a suggestion. Dig up one of those socks you have buried in your back yard
and take a little money out of it and buy a new one. LOL

Wayne's recommendation on the Transducer Shield and Saver is probably the best and most permanent fix there is. The shield is actually relatively inexpensive and cheaper than buying a new xducer. That being said, over the past 5 years I have snapped mine off 3 times and used JB weld to repair it and it's still going strong. Each time its been broken was due to a hard blow to it that probably would have snapped a new transducer so I cant fault the JB Weld fix. Next time I break it I'm purchasing the shield.
