Interesting Bob.

does super glue work to fold the tail back on itself. sorta like the rage tail plastics ? just a quarter inch

That ought to have a lot of catching action!

I don’t know about using a super for that purpose. I used super glue sometime to after I get through by the head the way I tied the wedges on is tie the top of the on and then I bend it back often then it pretty well stays straight, maybe I will post a picture of what I’m talking about .

would super glue hold a small piece of another color of tail as a hot spot? i tried melting a strip of silicone to make a ball at one end but it turned to ashes.

I'll have to experiment with the superglue in silicone to see what we can do or can't do. Question what type of ball that you trying to superglue.

just trying to get more movement out of the tail. . the rage plastic baits have a distinct ridge on the end of the tail that moves water. almost as if the tail is folded over. so if i had a white tail and glued a black or red piece to either side of tail. would super glue work? or a solarez type work better?

Those should be real killers! Nicexties.

Super glue should work on the silicone on the little tales that we are using well glue a little bit on one to see how it comes out and let you know.
