tired of your cap getting glued to your tube, put a little lip balm carmex inside the cap, and screw it on. the cap will never get stuck on again.


COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

Is thats a good idea. I throw away at least 2-3 tubes of mostly full glue each year with the cap permanently attached!! Gets expensive at 3-4$ a tube

I am not sure I could figure them out... hmmm they look like they would be hard on the plastic, especially the stuff I use...can you post up how to rig one, in pics?

I tried gluing the baits on, especially Laners baits...I liked the results, a lot, other than the glue fingers I invariably ended up dealing with...but the biggest problem to me was, that I ended up having a whole mess of jigs laying around the ashtray and the bottom of the boat and had to retire every time I changed colors or jig sizes, and I do change colors, and I hate to retie...so I just went back to the old fashioned way of messing with them, when the fish pulls the skirts down...sigh

I heard Super glue works great for keeping minnows on the hook also.


The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

Use the Locktite gel super glue...lots easier to handle with soft plastics, and the lid doesn't seize on because of glue dribbling down the sides.

I have some of these and they will hold a plastic very well. Easy to use. http://stores.mtpocketstackle.com/worm-nose-screw-lock/
