plastic lure repair glue

Post by gian » Mon Jul 21, 2008 10:42 pm

So I've been tearing up my senkos and came across a glue on ebay that supposedly mends soft plastics and makes them like new again. Have any of you guys used such a product or should I just stick to buying senkos in bulk. I run my lures weedless so after a few fish the centers get chewed up. Any way around this?

Thanks

No way around it. Mend-It :thumleft: It's good stuff. I use it for swimbait repair.
I don't sit on a lake and mend all my plastics while I'm fishing. I suppose I could but I just grab a new one and go. If you got in the habit of fixing all your rips and tears, you would save a ton of $.

thanks guys. I have a section of my tackle box I've been putting my torn plastics into. I'll have to pick up some glue and have a mending session.
