Thread: Super Glue

I used this product, back when I was using glue :

Bonds/dries in less than a minute, did not affect the bite, and was easy to apply. Did not dry out like the Super Glue that comes in a "toothpaste" type tube, or brush on bottle, even after many months of non-use.

Hollow tubes would remain afixed to the jighead, until they were either picked clean of their tails by Bluegill or I scraped them off, myself, with a pocketknife Rofl

I change tails too often to glue anything down. Besides me and superglue don't get along very well. I tried some of the wire keeper jig heads and wasn't impressed. DO-IT may have a better wire or not, but I don't find I need it. Tanged heads for hollow tails and uncollared ones for solid tails works well enough for me that I don't feel it necessary to mess around with more things to carry. I don't have any splitting problems with the 32nd oz tanged heads on the larger solid bodied tails either. IMO A lot of that has to do with the quality of the plastic they are made out of. Some of the more active plastics also hold together a lot better than some of the cheaper ones. It doesn't seem to me like it is even so much the hardness but rather the internal cohesion of the material. Some tear real easy some don't. The first bend on the sickle hooks will also help keep the tails up for those that use them.
