    Default Leadhead Insertion Easier


    I use Umbrella tubes with a large 1/8 oz round unpainted leadhead. It can be a little difficult pushing this large leadhead inside a bait even as big as the Umbrella tube. Well even after smoothing of the lead flash from the leadhead from the molding process , I occasionally tear a bait. Now I squirt a shot of Slab's scents up in the tube before insertion. This has made it lots easier and should hold the scent well.
    Thanks Slab , those little bottles with the little flip top are just right to apply the scent inside my tube baits.:D
