Sticky yuck

[Uncle Grump]

Not exactly plastic pouring - but the closest topic.....

Some years back, I found a product (Mend it) which can be used to repair torn soft plastics, like stick baits, frogs, twisters, etc.

Works good - seals up the tear/hole, and the lure fishes another day or two or .....

What I didn't realize is that Mend-it changes the composition of the plastic bait from being non-stick/melt to the kind that sticks/melts when it comes in contact with other items.

I opened one of my 3700 boxes this morning to find sticky yuck on lure packages, spinner baits, jigs, etc.

At least you found it before you were on the water..

Note to self;
forget about mend it

Thanks for the heads up

Yea, it can really mess up a bait box...

Don't totally forget about Mend-it - it does work, and its a better solution than Super Glue - which forms hard spots in the lure.

Mend-it saved some lures for me which were working, of which I had a limited supply.

A couple of sandwich size "baggies" could be the solution here....got to check on this.

I use to use some scent that would melt the inside of Plano boxes
