Thread: Dry Jigs

WD 40 !!!!!!

hmmm, never entered my mind!

and crappie actually like WD40??

They spray it on as an attractant for salmon in Oregon. Couldn't believe it when i saw it. And before anybody says it has fish oil in it, don't. That was an urban legend and was never true according to WD40 spokesman and Snopes.

I put mine in a zip lock bag....shoot a couple sprays of PAM cooking spray in the bag. Then close the bag.

I like the Pam idea better. Seems much more environmental friendly, but maybe not.

Would appreciate any recommendation.

Buy another bag!!.Cheaper than minnows!! mineral oil in zip lock bags are the original bag they came in works best for us.

I only keep a limited amount in my boat . Rest are in my office out of the sunlight and heat . Too many folks keep all their plastics in the boat and heat which causes the colors to fade and harms the plastics . I been meaning to ask the plastic makers because read on the net where mineral oil was not suppose to be good for plastics ? I had bought a bottle of the stuff but not used it after reading that. I used to use cheap fish scents with ainse oil to help slide tubes over jig heads .
