Sfrye37 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Have any of you guys used a glue such as gorilla glue or anything similar to glue the hook hangers in? Or have you been strictly epoxy all the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I use gap filling super glue, and fit my LPO weighted belly hangers in tight fitting holes. Once I am sure they go in dry, I coat them with the super glue, and push them back in. The gap filling glue gives me more time to get them positioned, and then I add a drop of accelerant to set them. I've done the same with twist wire hangers, making sure that the glue fills the whole hole, and squeezes out when the twist wire is pushed into it. Super glue is really strong stuff.

SW Lures Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I do the same as Mark except I'll do a quick but small twist back and forth to get the glue and belly weight bedded in. Yep I use gorilla glue but not the foaming/filling type. I use the clear liquid type in the blue covering, since you know about it. As Mark stated, very strong stuff trust me.

danthefisherman Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 To answer the question though haha, super glue can work too! It does make a difference if you are using wood however. If you're using resin, another option is to mold the screw eyes into the bait all in one go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW Lures Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Gorilla Glue has a super glue/epoxy as mentioned above. Just a FYI. This brings up another question about putting a screw eye in resin. Nah.....I'm not hitchhiking a thread/topic. For later! Good luck, Dale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
