    Question how do you all...


    keep your tube jig bodies from drying out while in your tackle boxes?
    so of them i buy have a oil already in them and they dont dry out as fast as some that dont have the oil on them.

    what kind of oil do they use or what would b good to use that wont leave a bad sent on them?

    thanks in advance

    Garlic scented cooking spray works well.
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    I have a YUM garlic spray. One spritz of that lubes 'em up for quite a while and gives 'em a scent. It's *supposed* to improve the bite, but...I can't tell!

    In reading these other posts, tho, I'm thinking the YUM is a waste of $ when you can get the same results from PAM or fish oil....which I have to take anyway! Doesn't that stink up your tackle if it's out in the heat for a while?

    I use the Yum spray. just spray on top of the jigs in the box. then close it and shake it up and down. they stay good for a long time like that. Oh and bring them inside in this heat!
