    Default What is the best Glue for jigs


    I use a very good glue now but too costly what do you use. I wish they had more outlet 's for it.

    Rich, what exactly are you trying to glue? Plastics to jig head, thread when you tie one?

    Rich ... back when I was using glue to hold my hollow tubes to the jighead, I was using this :



    The only reason I quit using it, was because I quit using hollow plastics and started using solid body plastics. I haven't really had the same problem of the baits getting pulled down on the hook, since switching to solid body plastics. But, I do still purchase this product for "around the house" use. Way less messy than squeeze tubes or brush on bottles, and will stay usable for over a year after opening. I was lucky to get the squeeze tubes to not dry up after a month or two of use, after opening.

    Price depends on where you purchase, and can range from ~$3 to over $6 ... and I believe I bought my last bottle (4 Gram size) from Wally World for around $3.00

    That's right on, I'm glueing jigs to the heads now I've used what CrappiePappy said, the gel it works but too long to dry. I currently using Mikes glue, didn't want to mention the company name but its good stuff.
