Oil for jigs

**Danny Lang** · 01-31-2025, 10:14 PM

What do you fellows use to lubricate the jigs to keep them from sticking together, I would like a alternative to worm oil, I picked up some baby oil, but done some research and it said it would turn the jigs hard over time, so I washed all the jigs in the sink with hot soapy water, now I need something to put on them.

I like my jigs with a small amount of oil on them just don’t know what to use, does it have to be oiled?

I use anise oil mixed with worm oil

I’ve heard of mineral oil but why not Slab Sauce?

Worm oil also I used in the past Pam.

will Pam dry them out after a while? That’s a cheap alternative.

Mineral oil.......don't use Pam, will gum up after a while.

I keep a gallon of worm oil on hand & squirt some in a small bottle that i use to lubricate my injectors & when done i squirt it back into the bottle. I also use it to squirt a small amount in the bags of baits & it works great I've saw some say that mineral oil caused their baits to get hard & i have heard of guys getting glycerin oil at a pharmacy saying it was a good cheap alternative. I've han my gallon of worm oil for over 5 years & still have over half of it left so in my mind it's pretty cheap in the long run. I make a lot of baits & am still surprised how little it takes to lubricate them.
