    Default Hard nibbles


    Anyone know how to soften old crappie nibbles so they can be used in the Bait Pump? Tried soakin a few in Powerbait liquid, still won't compress through nozzle.

    Put some new soft ones in the jar with the hard ones and keep inside(where its warm) for a while. Should soften em up.

    i store extra jars that I buy in the freezer just to avoid this situation. Carry no more than a jar on the boat and keep several in the freezer as back-ups.

    I placed the bottle in hot tap water and softened them up before.
